Paul McCartney documentary to highlight his experience in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks

Paul McCartney is in the process of putting two new films on his resume.

The first is The Love We Make, a documentary on McCartney's experience in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks and leading up to The Concert for New York City. Paul was in a plane on the tarmac in New York when the attacks took place. He was forced to stay in the city with the film chronicling his experiences on the streets that day and the planning and performance of the benefit concert.

McCartney said of the concert, "It was an honor to be able to help New York and America at that time in its history. There was a feeling of shock and fear in the air that I thought we could help alleviate with music. And the fact that so many people stepped up to join us made for a very uplifting evening for us all."

The film was directed by Albert Maysles (Gimme Shelter, Grey Gardens) and Bradley Kaplan (Get Your Ya-Ya's Out!) and also includes such luminaries as David Bowie, Eric Clapton, Mick Jagger, Jay Z, Billy Joel, Elton John and more.

The Love We Make will debut on Showtime September 10, the night before the tenth anniversary of the attack.

In addition, Roger Friedman's Showbiz 411 is reporting that Unique Films is working on an animated adaptation of McCartney's 2005 children's book High in the Clouds. Little more is know about the production other than the fact that Paul has already written a number of songs for the film.
