Inauguration Day: "In the Moment"
If you weren't one of the hundreds of thousands (millions?) of people who braved the cold temperatures and the crowds to see Barack Obama sworn in as the 44th president of the United States, a documentary of the day produced by reporters, editors and videographers at washingtonpost.com is the next best thing.
Broken into three sections -- the swearing-in, the parade and the balls -- the "In the Moment" documentary brings a series of stirring images together with poignant voices of those who attended the day's events in a powerful and memorable way.
For those who missed the proceedings, this short film is a must-watch as it recreates the day as well as anything we've seen. For those who made it to Washington for the day, this will be a a walk down memory lane worth taking.
