Paul McCartney’s 9/11 Documentary To Air on Eve of 10-Year Anniversary



Paul McCartney’s 9-11 documentary will air on 9/10/2011

The Love We Make, the documentary which  follows Paul McCartney through New York City after the infamous 9/11 attacks, will debut on Showtime a day before the 10-year anniversary.

The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that McCartney was in NYC the day of the attacks and witnessed the event first hand. The documentary also shows the planning of the performances for the benefit concert, The Concert for New York City, that took place after the attacks.

McCartney said of the concert: “There was a feeling of shock and fear in the air that I thought we could help alleviate with music, and the fact that so many people stepped up to join us made for a very uplifting evening for us all.”

Other performers included David Bowie, Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crow, Jay Z and Elton John. As interesting as this documentary seems, I don’t think it’s very patriotic to have a Brit host a documentry about America’s greatest tragedy. At the same time it goes to show that 9/11 affected the entire world and not just those in this country. Your thoughts?

    ‘I don’t think it’s very patriotic to have a Brit host a documentry about America’s greatest tragedy.’ ? Appalling statement to make. And ‘America’s greatest tragedy’ FFS. There have been many awful tragedies in America’s history, you cannot possibly assign this to be number 1, it’s not a bloody contest! I’d have thought that the fact that ‘a Brit’ wanted to do such a thing would be received with gratitude :( Hmmm. We are all people, just because 9/11 happened geographically in the US doesn’t mean you get to claim it. We have all had basic human rights revoked because of the senseless horror, which is perhaps the biggest tragedy of them all.

    There once was a marvelous, talented group known as “the Beatles”. John was murdered. George was taken way too soon by disease. Ringo who had been known as, the “beatle in the background” has become over the years the one who maintains quietude. Then their is Paul. Pitiful.
