The crowd going to see this movie was insane, more than I've ever seen at a free movie. They actually had to turn people away! Since the subject matter was so controversial because it concerns the war on terror, I just want to mention the opening sequence. I always look at opening credits after studying film in school. I actually was required to take a class for my major called "Motion PIcture" where we analyzed movies and wrote screenplays. The Kingdom starts with a mini-documentary about the relationship between the U.S. and Iraq in the oil industry. It is all animated and all of a sudden the graphic on the screen turns into the twin towers. An animated plane swoops in from the audience and "hits" the towers and the movie starts. Pretty cool!
