The Walk

Release: September 26, 2015

In 1968, Parisian street performer Philippe Petit bites a hard candy from the audience, damaging his tooth. In the dentist's waiting room, he sees a photo of the Twin Towers in a magazine. Analyzing it, he dreams of walking a tightrope between the towers. Meanwhile, he is evicted from his parent's house by his father, who disapproves of his job. Philippe returns to the circus that inspired him to wire walk as a child and practices in the big top after hours. His ultimate goal: to walk on a tightrope between the two towers.

Petit: "I lost my costume! It's a tragedy! The biggest page of my like and I lose my costume! It falls off the edge! If have no costume!"

Petit: "I find myself standing on an island floating in mid-air... at the edge of the void. And of course, I automatically look at the opposite tower. But now, I had to dare... to look... Down. Now I know what the void is. I'm a wire-walker. The void is my domain. But not this void. But somehow I gather the strength to whisper, whisper so the demons won't hear. It's impossible... But I'll do it."

Petit: "I find myself in the middle of the wire. And I feel the void. And although a wire-walker should never look down... I do. And it was... It was beautiful. It was calm and beautiful, and serene, and "not-dangerous.""

Barry: "It's something only a twisted, antisocial, anarchistic, pissed-off malcontent would have anything to do with. You have your inside man!"

Jean-Pierre: "You know Philippe, the Towers seem different. They're different now."

Barry Greathouse: "That's right. They're different because you walked up there. Every New Yorker I talk to now says they love these towers."

Annie: "Perhaps you brought them to life, Philippe - given them a soul."

Papa Rudy: "Most wire walkers, they die when they arrive. They think they have arrived... But they are still on the wire. If you have three steps to do, and if you do those steps arrogantly... if you think you are invincible... You are going to die!"

Petit's Mother: "Edmond, could we reconsider... give him one more chance? No, the carrots are cooked."
