A short film for those there on the day who found it hard to cheer at the collapse of these towers.

Beautiful film, great job guys. I so grieve for the loss of the post-war dream. It was beautiful but flawed. It wasn't just the buildings that were flawed, it was some of the people living in them, the officials, the economy, the infrastructure and more. We can't expect 'them' to build a better life for us. We all have to take responsibility for building a better future. If we had all taken that responsibility then, we might be living in the Utopia that the post-war dream was based on.

Well, I lived in G/2,Allermuir Court from '72 till '74.
It wasn't the best of times for me and yea it's sad to see many many peoples happy memories go, but personally for me it's a kind of closure...My mum commited suicide by jumping from one of the fire escape balconies :(
So you see, I was happy to see them go.

Fair comment. Good enough reason to say good riddance to them.
Cheers
