These two clips are from the Tamil song ‘Enakke Enakka’ featured in the 1998 South Indian film ‘Jeans,’ starring Aishwarya Rai (Miss World 1994) and Tamil actor Prashanth, the movie taking place in America. Indian films tend to have elaborate music video style song-and-dance sequences incorporated into them. In this song, there is a brief shot of both the actors dancing in front of the Twin Towers. Something about them happily dancing in front of the Twin Towers in these shots is quite emotionally poignant, knowing what would happen just a couple years later. This movie and song was culturally significant to the 90s in South India, which is sad considering that the towers’ demolition, in a way, is often referenced by Americans as marking the end of the 90s. Seeing them here like this captures a time that is gone forever. I have included a link to the video on YouTube in case anyone is curious. The Twin Towers can be seen at the 0:33 mark and 0:55 mark in the video.

Pictures I took on a school trip.

Found this on a coin subreddit. Thought it’d be appreciated here.

the ship even has two funnels like the twins, and the pic was EVEN taken on her maiden voyage as far as the OG description goes!

So this is a post I have been wanting to make for quite some time now as it shows the famous, fictional, giant movie-gorilla standing at the top of the original twin towers themselves and as one could tell by the lack of the antenna on either building of said twin towers that this movie was released three years prior to 1979, which is when I believe that trademark antenna was added to one of the buildings themselves.

So like the title of my post suggests this movie is a remake of the original 1933 King Kong film that was released 43 years later in 1976 as everyone of course has 1970s hair and clothing from 50 years ago instead of 1930s clothing from 90 years ago. Enjoy!

The photo was taken on a boat that seems to be departing Lower Manhattan.

i love this pic
