World Trade Center DVD release

Hollywood's take on the terrorist attacks on New York is now available for UK residents to own.

Telling the story of two policemen, portrayed by Nicholas Cage and Michael Pena, the film focuses on the character's experiences of the infamous events, trapped under the rubble of the buildings.

Additionally, the stories of their worried families unfold for the camera, with performances from Maggie Gyllenhaal and Maria Bello.

World Trade Center is the latest in a long line of blockbusters for Cage, who recently appeared in The Wicker Man and arms trade movie Lord Of War.

His colleague in the film, Michael Pena, has been somewhat less prolific in box office successes, although roles in Million Dollar Baby and Babel mean that he is no stranger to the big screen.

Nor is Maggie Gyllenhaal, sister of Brokeback Mountain star Jake Gyllenhaal, who has appeared in Mona Lisa Smile and Trust The Man in recent years.
