'Live On Air' Featurette for 1972 Munich Olympics 'September 5' Film

"That's a TV! Are they seeing what we're seeing?" Paramount has revealed a new making of featurette video for the film September 5, one of the major Oscar contenders in play this awards season. The official trailer dropped a few months ago, and the film premiered at both the 2024 Venice & Telluride Film Fests earlier in the fall. During the 1972 Munich Olympics (on September 5th, 1972), an American sports broadcasting crew finds itself thrust into covering the hostage crisis involving Israeli athletes. The film focuses on the crew of the ABC Sports TV station that was located right inside the Olympic village, covering all the sports events live for the first time ever in TV history. The superb ensemble cast in the film includes Peter Sarsgaard, John Magaro, Ben Chaplin, Leonie Benesch, Zinedine Soualem, Marcus Rutherford, Georgina Rich, Corey Johnson, Daniel Adeosun, Benjamin Walker, Ferdinand Dörfler. This featurette is more of a more detailed intro to the film and the story it's telling, setting it up better than the trailer did. It's a fascinating story of this TV crew at this moment having to decide then & there how to proceed. Great film. // Continue Reading ›
