The decision about whether and how to acknowledge 9/11 was made after a lot of thought. We felt the fact that the railcar was traveling to Whitwell on that date was too significant to ignore, but, as you said, we also didn't want to go off track with the story. We thought if we added a subtle acknowledgement of the matching dates it would leave the audience able to make their own meaning out of it. In fact a great majority of viewers who've talked about this have said they understand why we handled it the way we did, although I can understand and appreciate that you don't agree with that.

In fact we filmed a fairly lengthy sequence of some Whitwell kids traveling to NY and New Jersey to make a presentation at a Synagogue, share Shabbat dinner with a Jewish family in Jersey, meet and pal around with local kids, etc. We also went to Ground Zero with all the kids... In fact that sequence has been resurrected on the bonus features DVD in the 2-Disc package that's now available. We all think it makes a really nice addition to what one sees in the 'official' film.
