Movie Reviews of American Experience: Woodrow Wilson

Movie Review: AN INSIGHTFUL BIOGRAPHY OF A GREAT AND CONTROVERSIAL LEADER AND HIS TIMES
Summary: 5 Stars

IN A NUTSHELL: AMONG THE BEST 'AMERICAN EXPERIENCE' PBS HOME VIDEO RELEASES

SET CONTAINS 2 DVDs:

DISK 1]- 'A PASSIONATE MAN'

DISK 2]- 'THE REDEMPTION OF THE WORLD'

On both Disks an incredibly comprehensive and easily accessed set of features is included to enhance one's appreciation and comprehension of the presentation.


-*Mini documentaries on: race relations, women's suffrage, labor rights etc. were very helpful in understanding the times.

-* 'Video' Profiles of key figures in Wilson's life including antagonist 'Henry Cabot Lodge', allies 'Lloyd George' & 'Clemenceau', and Women's Suffrage Leaders and more.

-* Interviews with the filmmakers and scholars

-*Jacob Riis photo gallery

-*World War I poster art gallery

-*A scholar's forum on Wilson's legacy - basically this was a series of answers [by eight historians] to the question of why Woodrow Wilson is historically important?

BOTTOM LINE: EXCELLENT DOCUMENTARY BUT YOU MIGHT PREFER TO RENT OR BORROW IT

This is the kind of documentary that is not likely to be on your frequent viewing shelf, unless you are a motivated student of history. Therefore, since this DVD is both expensive to purchase and available in many public libraries, you may consider viewing a borrowed or rented copy before you buy it.
