问题     If movie trailers(预告片)are supposed to cause a reaction, the preview for "United 93" more than succeeds. Featuring no famous actors, it begins with images of a beautiful morning and passengers boarding an airplane. It takes you a minute to realize what the movie’s even about. That’s when a plane hits the World Trade Center. The effect is visceral(震撼心灵的). When the trailer played before "Inside Man" last week at a Hollywood theater, audience members began calling out, "Too soon!" In New York City, the response was even more dramatic. The Loews theater in Manhattan took the rate step of pulling the trailer from its screens after several complaints.
    "United 93’ is the first feature film to deal explicitly with the events of September 11, 2001, and is certain to ignite an emotional debate. Is it too soon? Should the film have been made at all? More to the point, will anyone want to see it? Other 9/11 projects are on the way as the fifth anniversary of the attacks approaches, most notably Oliver Stone’s "World Trade Center". But as the forerunner, "United 93’ will take most of the heat, whether it deserves it or not.
    The real United 93 crashed in a Pennsylvania field after 40 passengers and crew fought back against the terrorists. Writer-director Paul Greengrass has gone to great lengths to be respectful in his depiction of what occurred, proceeding with the film only after securing the approval of every victim’s family. "Was I surprised at the agreement? Yes. Very. Usually there’re one or two families who’re more reluctant," Greengrass writes in an e-mail. "I was surprised at the extraordinary way the United 93, families have welcomed us into their lives and shared their experiences with us." Carole O’Hare, a family member, says, "They were very open and honest with us, and they made us a part of this whole project." Universal, which is releasing the film, plans to donate 10 % of its opening weekend gross to the Flight 93 National Memorial Fund. That hasn’t stopped criticism that the studio is exploiting a national tragedy. O’Hare thinks that’s unfair. "This story has to be told to honor the passengers and crew for what they did." she says. "But more than that, it raises awareness. Our ports aren’t secure. Our borders aren’t secure. Our airlines still aren’t secure, and this is what happens when you’re not secure. That’s the message I want people to hear."
