The Looming Tower
Created by Lawrence Wright, Dan Futterman, Alex Gibney
On Hulu
A tense, intellectually rigorous historical drama that examines institutional failure and bureaucratic dysfunction as the prelude to catastrophe.
While Osama bin Laden and Al-Qaeda become a global threat, the rivalry between the CIA and FBI inadvertently sets the stage for the tragedy of 9/11 and the Iraq War.
