Man on Wire (2008)

Director: James Marsh (The King [never saw it, heard it was good], nothing else I've ever heard of)
Stars: Phillipe Petit (the movie doesn't contain actors, its a documentary)
YesNoSoso: 2

An extrodinary documentary about Phillipe Petit's high-wire walk between the Twin Towers in 1974. When I first heard of this documentary it was accompanied by lots of hype but I was skeptical. How could a movie about a high-wire act entertain me for two entire hours? But Man on Wire is stylized as more of a caper documentary than anything else. Highly entertaining and beautifully shot.
