After dancing for nearly an hour on the wire, he was arrested, taken for psychological evaluation, and brought to jail, before finally being released. This extraordinary documentary incorporates Petit's personal footage to show how he overcame seemingly insurmountable challenges to achieve the artistic crime of the century" -- DVD container. 521 8 MPAA rating: PG-13; for some sexuality, nudity, and drug use. 541 0 PFA 3500-01-14392.
