Oversold: Did the Brothers Naudet Push Their Luck Too Far...?

This is a screen-grab from the "fly-on-the-wall" "documentary film "9/11" (2002) by the brothers Naudet, and it's very, very strange indeed - not to mention, troubling...

First of all, that looks like no photograph of the twin towers ever taken at night I have ever seen, for any point during their lifetime and I've just looked at a couple of hundred in quick succession - not only does this (falsely) suggest full occupancy, there are WAY too many lights on and WAY too bright - they appear (at the very least) to have been optically brightened, if not outright matted-in.

Second, look at the composition, the framing - this is the ONLY picture I have ever seen of both towers AND Building 7 clearly visible, and from ground level (Building 7 also appears fully occupied).

Third, where the hell were they standing?

Fourth - I'm CERTAIN this is not just me.... But doesn't that just absolutely reek to you of green-screen to you when you look at it...?

  1. First, the extra lighting effect could be the result of bad setup of the camera itself, seems to show up on the other buildings although not to the same extent as the WTC. Second, the extra lights could simply be the demolition crew doing its work at night. Or, it could simply be the cleaning crew doing its job at night with the lights on (could William Rodriguez help on this?)
