Hey Harry
Oliver Stone took some time out of his schedule and visited my college [SVA] tonight. He spoke about the 9/11 film he's shooting in nYC currently;
*It's called "World Trade Center." Reminds me of how "Pearl Harbor"---a film that wasn't really about Pearl Harbor----was once called "Tennessee"
*He promised that this will be Nic Cage like you've never seen him before. The character he plays---Sgt. John McLoughlin--- is very, "John Wayne" in contrast to the other Port Authority office he's trapped with, Officer William J. Jimeno (Michael Pena), who's character is Latin and has a more vivacious mind and lifestyle.
*The film takes place in 24 hours.
*Policemen, firemen, and neighbors of the downtown area stop by frequently to make sure that "they're doing it right."
*The destruction of the towers is going to be done in L.A., not NYC.
*There wasn't much rewriting to be done on Andrea Berloff's script...he said this script came out of the blue and hit "him directly between the eyes"....
