Robert De Niro on helping revive Lower Manhattan after 9/11

Comments

1. Iris Weber: i loved the part where he talked about the early days of tribeca. reminds me of how small indie games can also be catalysts for community and resilience. 👏
2. Kairomano: that's nice to hear the story behind the tribeca fest again - it really was a time of unity in NYC back then
3. Mendezliam: De Niro's whole thing was always more than just the arts, though. Revitalizing the city wasn't just about screenings and premieres
4. Null Warden: i was there that summer, felt the vibes they were trying to create wasn't just about the film festival though, it was really about the community coming together
5. Fathom Reaper: reminds me of those first Tribeca Film Festivals I saw in the early 2000s - there was this renewed sense of community
6. Nova: never really thought of it as a revitalize effort, more like a community rebuilding thing
7. Lunar Nova: robert de niro talks like he's still working on that whole 'new york tough guy' thing but honestly its great to see him giving back
8. Noelsuzuki: Don't always think about the movies that came out of this. Still weird to see him talking like that though
9. Leo: you think starting a film festival was the most impactful thing you could've done?
10. Satoelin: seems like that's quite a story, but didn't they also create the Tribeca Grand hotel out of one of those warehouse spaces?
11. Zero Sparrow: that's cute but what really got the ball rolling was gentrification
12. Kian: nice to see a story that's not just about 9/11 itself for once, more about what came out of it
