Here is the synopsis for “The Walk”:
Twelve people have walked on the moon. Only one has ever or will ever walk in the immense void between the World Trade Center towers.
Guided by his real-life mentor, Papa Rudy (Ben Kingsley), Philippe Petit (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is aided by an unlikely band of international recruits who overcome long odds, betrayals, dissension and close calls to conceive and execute their mad plan.
The master director of “Forrest Gump,” “Cast Away,” “Back to the Future,” “Polar Express” and “Flight,” Robert Zemeckis again uses cutting-edge technology in the service of an emotional, character-driven story. With innovative photorealistic techniques and IMAX 3D wizardry, “The Walk” is genuine big-screen cinema and a chance for moviegoers to viscerally experience the feeling of reaching the clouds.
It is also one of the more rare live-action films that is a “PG”-rated, all-audience entertainment for moviegoers 8 to 80 and a true story to boot. It is unlike anything audiences have seen before. The film is a love letter to Paris and New York City in the 1970s and most of all to the towers of the World Trade Center.
