I'm just getting into act 3...I've been trying to figure out how to relay the significance of seeing this to people who might be inclined to skip it.

Maybe its the military experience, but for me, as an American, this is the defining event of my generation thus far. The reality of chaos and the effect it has on the lives of human beings who (for their entire lives) were conditioned up to that point, familiar reality consisted of something like law and order, help when you needed it, the comfort of family...so the experience becomes a part of us, that's how I see it. When soldiers and marines die at war, it's the community that surrounds that person who feels it, while the rest of the nation is upset their team lost the night before.
That's how America reacted to Katrina and its aftermath. It was a TV show.
Answers or plans haven't materialized...you see, it's the "free market" that needs to sort this mess out. So when the next disaster hits, every city in the nation refers to that and decides to close their doors. You'll hear, "this is a temporary situation, we appreciate your help!" -Damn you sleep good that night, and the next, so on- What happens a year later? Oh, it's showbiz government saying this and that, patting itself on the back for what a great job its done.
Freedom medals all around...
