A review of the new vertiginous film “The Walk”
For all of us, the Twin Towers in New York evoke terrible memories of 9/11. But, before that, they were iconic buildings that attracted millions of tourists (I visited several times) – and one amazing French tightrope walker. The feat of Philippe Petit was shown in the accomplished documentary “Man On Wire” [my review here] and now we have “The Walk” [my review here] which attempts to show you what it must have been like up there.
