9/10: THE FINAL HOURS
September 7, 2014  | By David Bianculli

National Geographic, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

How, after all these years, can a TV documentary approach the topic of 9/11 with something new to say, or something different to add? This one, directed by executive producer Erik Nelson, does – by shifting the focus from 9/11 to 9/10, and unearthing what several people tied to the tragic events of Sept. 11, 2001, were doing and saying the day before, on Sept. 10. From the person who served two of the hijackers pizza to Father Mychal Judge, whose speech the day before 9/11 is an eerily prescient description of the dangers and the draw of firefighting.
