Just this week, I watched the movie version again, for about the 3rd or 4th time since I bought the DVD. After I first saw it in the theater, I went directly from the theater to the bookstore to buy the book and see how faithfull the movie was to the book. In a word, very.

By all means see the movie, but get the book as well. If you can get one of the early versions from a used bookstore, the man on the cover is Rick Rescola, who was killed in the WTC attack, after getting most of the people he was responsible for, as head of security, out of the building.

I've got a newer version of the book, it has Mel Gibson on the cover. My daughter got me the DVD last Christmas. Both are IMHO excellent.
