Twin Tower Cameos by Dan Meth


Twin Tower Cameos
 is a video edited by Dan Meth, a cartoonist and director from New York City.  It shows the iconic towers in movies over a span of three decades. 

Ten years ago, New York's skyline changed drastically in a few minutes. Over the past few days leading to today's 10 year anniversary of 9/11 there have been many analysis, recounting and remembering. 

I won't get into any of that here. Instead, I invite you to watch this wonderful ode to the Twin Towers.

From 1969 to 2001, the Twin Towers made countless cameos in Hollywood films. Sometimes featured prominently in the foreground, sometimes lurking in the distance. This montage celebrates the towers' all-too-short film career with songs that capture the passing decades. Man, I miss them.  Dan Meth
