“After an introductory scene of some Arab men praying in an apartment on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, the first quiet line of dialogue among them, subtitled in English, is ‘It’s time.’ And so, despite the complaints about this film coming out “too soon” after the events of 9/11, after at least one theater in New York pulled the trailer from its screens, let me make two things clear: It is time, and the resulting film has been made with an adherence to the facts — as we know them — and with deep respect to the people who were murdered on that awful day.”

Question: Do you plan to see “United 93,” the film based on the fourth hijacked 9/11 plane that never reached its target?
