Those with the fortitude to relive the events of the morning of 9/11 should find the documentary Man in Red Bandana a powerful and inspiring experience.
Crowther’s courage and sacrifice deserves lionization, and comes shining through in Man with Red Bandana, but there’s no shaking the feeling that he also merits a more elegant cinematic celebration.

Captivating story about an amazing American and 9/11 hero ... Welles Crowther. His remarkable heroics became known because of a red bandana. The filmmaker found multiple survivors whom he saved to recount what Welles did during the last hour of his lift. I liked how the film also depicts Welles' his legacy throughout the US. However, the ending blew me away!
Report
This movie was a huge inspiration to the youth I work with each day. Being selfless is priceless. Red Bandanna project is what I run through my life skills program.
Report
The short-subject treatment serves as a challenge that, in eighty minutes, writer-director Matthew Weiss doesn’t meet.
This is such an inspiring documentary and a must watch for all Americans. My husband was a marine and was deployed often after 9/11. I wanted to find a story for my sons that focused on the heroism, rather than the terrorism. This documentary helps all of us to remember the pure good in our fellow man and how we should strive to live up to the character of Welles every day.
Report
After reading The Red Bandanna by Tom Rinaldi, I felt a strong urge to know more about Welles's story. The very next day I bought tickets to view Man in Red Bandana. I was 20 years old when 9/11 happened and I have not seen footage of the actual day since the first day when I watched the 2nd tower fall on TV. Re-watching the footage in the documentary brought me back to that time when my innocence of youth was forever changed.
The documentary includes other survivors accounts of that day in the South Tower and how a man named Welles Crowther risked his own life to save others. He was only 24 years old with a life ahead of him and it pains me that he, along with the others who lost their lives that day, will never get another day. I am grateful that his documentary was made. It will never bring Welles' or the others back, but it gave the Crowther's a special gift- their son will be a legacy for years to come. I know that does not make it any easier, but I hope they found peace in knowing they raised a magnificent, selfless man.
Report
A very important story of untold heroism. We've all heard various stories of heroes on Flight 93, at the Pentagon, and at the World Trades, and yet this story is uniquely special and important. There is a lot to learn about love and priorities from the Welles Crowther story. Well done.
Report
A must-see documentary. The messages of courage, sacrifice and selflessness are universal. The film tells the story of Welles Crowther in an engaging, educational and thoughtful manner. Bring your tissues as your heart will break a points but be ready to be inspired and uplifted by Welles heroics and legacy. The ending is incredible.
