The World Trade Center’s recognizable Twin Towers were featured in quite a few films from different decades…
The 1970s-
{Superman: The Movie in 1978 via WTC in Movies}
The 1980s-
{Splash in 1984 via WTC in Movies}
The 1990s-
{Men in Black in 1997 via WTC in Movies}
The 2000s-
{The Family Man in 2000 via WTC in Movies}
I just watched a video montage called Twin Tower Cameos by Dan Meth on My Modern Met, watch it here. Meth had this to say about his tribute:
“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.”
While it’s sometimes painful and sad to see those two, proud towers in films from the past…I do appreciate that we have countless proof of their impact on New York’s skyline and America’s culture. There they are, documented…for future generations to see.
