Tower's reviews
Media reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Keith Maitland?s 'Tower' is a stunningly powerful and gripping documentary.
Variety
A gripping dramatic reconstruction, a tribute to the heroes and the fallen, and inevitably an expression of nostalgia for the days when a mass shooting still had the power to shock, Keith Maitland?s film weaves rotoscopic animation, archival footage and present-day interviews into a uniquely cinematic memorial.
Los Angeles Times
Maitland?s experimental approach to a tricky subject leaves viewers with a deeper understanding of a terrible moment in American history.
Indiewire
A fascinating blend of suspense and journalistic inquiry.
Roger Ebert
'Tower' is explanatory journalism and history, but also personally expressive, and the two impulses never cancel each other out.
