In Memoriam: New York City, 9/11/01 (2002) - Part 1 of 6 - The Terrorist Attack Starts at 8:46 AM Buy this HBO documentary on DVD from Amazon for less than $4... www.amazon.com Originally shown on HBO on May 26, 2002, In Memoriam is one of the most vital documents to emerge after the events of September 11, 2001.
