Movie Reviews of Biography - Robert E. Lee
Movie Review: Better than PBS
Summary: 5 Stars
Of the two recent TV biographies on Lee, this one and the PBS version of the same name, I think the A&E production much superior. One could make an argument that the PBS bio was something of a hatchet job, focusing almost exclusively on Lee's most negative traits and offering little insight into the larger man. In contrast, the shorter A&E version attempts to provide the viewer with a broader, more balanced view of this highly controversial and fascinating American figure. If you're in the market for a good TV biography on Robert E. Lee, this is an excellent choice. Highly recommended.
Summary of Biography - Robert E. Lee
Arguably the greatest military commander of all time, his brilliance single-handedly kept the outnumbered and under-supplied Confederacy in the Civil War long after they should have been forced to surrender. The son of legendary Revolutionary War figure "Light Horse" Lee, Robert graduated at the top of his class and rose to the rank of colonel before the outbreak of the Civil War. BIOGRAPHY® traces his brilliant campaigns-still studied in military academies today-and reveals the personal tragedies that ultimately defeated the "Marble Man." Excerpts from his writings, testimonies from those who served and fought against him, and interviews with military experts, Civil War historians, and biographers offer intimate insight into the career and life of this remarkable man. ROBERT E. LEE offers a definitive portrait of the legendary and tragic figure at the heart of the Civil War. DVD Features: Interactive Menus; Scene SelectionSimilar DVD Movies
