| I am a runner, so Steve Prefontaine is a hero to me. He was an awesome runner, and also did a lot for amateur athletics overall, affecting all generations after him. He died such a tragic, untimely death, but his legacy and inspiration live on. Great documentary of a great hero. |

| I'm a High school drama teacher and while doing a lesson on Shakespeare I bought this video to teach the kids about Shakespeare's life. It has a lot of great information and it doesn't dumb it down (if you get what I mean). Its not just a biography of the events in Shakespeare's life, it looks at him as a man and explores how events in his life triggered his creative process. There is a lot of great commentary from well respected scholars and classical actors and directors. Great teaching tool for ... Read More: |

|
| I found the film thoroughly enjoyable; the use of rarely seen film/photos and facts as presented were fascinating. The only thing that keeps this from a five star rating is that we needed a little bit more of the politics of the era, to make it all gel into a truly classic documentary.
As it is now, we are moved and saddened... yet aggravated with Nicholas' apparent weaknesses; and left still wondering "why?" -- how could this possibly have happened? Russia was a great empire, and is still a great ... Read More: |

|
| Always sleuthing for "missing links" of Stoogedom, this 2 disc-set brings a smile (and laughs during crystal clear film and audio excerpts).
A true bonanza for Larry Fine afficionados, as Lyla Fine Budnick speaks at length about her Brother, in a most articulate and engaging way. An insightful, heart-warming life story is the result. Interviewees such as Larry's Brother-In-Law, and yes, Curly's daughter Janie (!) are sensitived presented. On the original A & E Show, I do not recall them being ... Read More: |

| I have always been a huge Doris Day Fan and I own all 39/39 of her films. When I saw this Video for sale 2 years ago on this website I picked it up instantly. And I loved it. This A&E Biography was so beautiful and it got so into depth. This Biography really touched some of the same facts that the book Doris Day: Her Story by A.E.Hotchner touched. Doris had such a sad and a happy life. It was also fun to see clips from so many of her movies. It was so sad to me that she went through 4 bad marriages that poor woman. But she ... Read More: |

 |
|
| This is an excellent video biography of one of America's most important and truly fascinating Presidents. There is so much to tell about this man, and this video manages to tell a lot of it very well. It is especially good at describing the very real changes Jackson invoked in the country and its people. Rich he may have been, but he Jackson truly did represent the common people. He was a man of great passion, ruthless determination, and personal heroism who lived one of the largest lives this nation has ever seen.

|
| I had a teacher in college who spent almost a whole semester on the Civil War. We were supposed to come from the Civil War to the present. She taught what she enjoyed. I always felt that if Lincoln were a great president he would have held the country together. He would have found a way to prevent north and south from fighting. Slavery had to go. We know that. I was born in Louisville, Kentucky. My son was born in Nashville, Tennessee. Kentucky remained in the Union while Tennessee was part of the Confederacy. I have driven between Louisville ...
