Movie Haiku:Director Lee masterfully links the story of a flawed drug dealer (Norton) with NYC’s response to 9/11. The central question is survival when faced with a future too horrible to contemplate: Do you flee? Do you give up? Can you find the strength to keep going, the determination to rebuild?
