 2.What was the first movie to be allowed to shoot in New York after the 9/11 terrorist attack? *


Answer I think is 25th Hour

"
While 25th Hour is not a bad film by any stretch of the imagination, one feels as though it could have accomplished a lot more if it was more polished. There isn’t really any tension or drama as we all know he’s going to jail and the film does feel a little meandering at times. It was the first movie filmed in New York after 9/11 and I’m sure Lee is trying to say something here, but to be frank, I was lost on what exactly the message was or what he was trying to convey to the audience. Norton makes it watchable, but the film would have benefited from a heavy edit and a more concise plot and storyline.
