"On Friday, May 19 the “World Trade Center” trailer will debut in theaters with Sony’s Da Vinci Code.
“World Trade Center” is a true story about courage and survival. It seeks to honor the good that we saw on September 11, 2001 in the face of such evil. Paramount Pictures is extremely proud of the spirit of this film, but understands the obvious sensitivities in releasing a movie about September 11th.
To that end, Paramount has been communicating with 9/11 family and survivor groups since last fall on all aspects of the film. Recently, we have shared information with these groups pertaining to the movie trailer specifically, and which movies it will be paired with, as a way of preparing those directly impacted by the attacks."

I'm not sure what to say about this trailer. I saw 'United 93', and enjoyed it, even though I knew I was going to have a hard time seeing it, but, it didn't really focus on what was happening in Manhattan, and, that made it a little easier for me. I'm not saying what happened with flight 93 that day was any less tragic then what happened in Manhattan, I just, I don't know, this is hard for me to write. What happened in Manhattan just, affected me much more personally. I was in Tower 2 the night before, just 12 hours before it wasn't there anymore, and the next day I watched it come down with my own eyes. I'm not sure I'm ready for this one.
