this movie attempt weave 5 story into one but fail miserably . the supposed link be to 9/11 but the link be actually miss . the reference to 9/11 be so subtle a to be non existent . i view this movie on dvd it feature the ability to view each story a a contiguous whole . after watch each story individually to try to understand the point of the movie i realize that the movie be pointless . ( for a good example of how to weave together story and see love and actually . ) don not waste your time with this movie .
