It is continuous, in real-time, a veritable chronicle from a single source. It is emotional, but genuinely so. The account is captured from a fire escape in Jersey City, across the Hudson River. The videographer, Jim Kosior, can be considered the conduit. There are several other individuals in the story that make for this experience, one of the most intimate windows looking upon the human condition.
The vantage point in which Tuesday Morning in September is filmed from: Jersey City, New Jersey is one of the most iconic views of the Manhattan cityscape. Jim’s extenuating circumstances, outside of the World Trade Center attacks, give the viewer contrast and shifts attention to other happenings in Jim’s life on 9/11, and many synonymous with others throughout The U.S. that day.
Tuesday Morning in September begins innocently at breakfast, 15 minutes before the first strike, downstairs with his neighbors. At one moment, Jim is staring down at an omelet and in the next he begins to film what, in time, may be considered the experience of that day that is most close to capturing the heart of the nation, from the events we know as 9/11.
The vantage that Tuesday Morning in September is captured from is one of two main iconic views that people coming into Manhattan experience. During the filming there’s panning that encapsulates the entirety of the cityscape. To the left of The World Trade Center is The Empire State Building uptown into the 100′s towards The George Washington Bridge, and to the right stands the Statue of Liberty in the Hudson Bay then to Staten Island, and Bayonne.
Perhaps the most interesting piece to Tuesday Morning in September is the fact that Jim has another issue at hand during the account. Intermittently, attention is shifted from The World Trade Center to The Empire State Building. The reason for this is because Jim’s wife works only blocks away from The Empire State Building. Jim pleads with his wife, over the phone, to get out of New York City; to come home.
Tuesday Morning in September showcases what many Americans might have felt that day. Being uncertain of what was going to happen next. Or perhaps, this account will be what some will take away as their account of 9/11.. It is not merely an American story.. it is a story that touches all.
