The songs are lovely, and the first-time actors give performances that grow warmer as the film progresses
The whole thing was a bad idea that only genius could've rescued. Maybe not even then.

Sung mainly by real-life folk musicians Joe Purdy and Amber Rubarth, the songs lend the film an emotional resonance that the forced dialogue often struggles to achieve.

With quirky characters met along the road, and as a visual love letter to the heartland, the film has a certain charm, and fans of folk music should be more than happy.

The film belatedly emerges as one of the stronger fictional statements on 9/11.

Only a few films over the years have tried to dramatize events leading up to or following 9/11. September 12th takes a modest but effective approach to that national tragedy.
