Review Vietnam - A Television History / Wgbh Boston:Exactly why was America in Vietnam? This remarkable and essential seven-volume series-six years in the making and originally broadcast on public television in 1983-tells the agonizing history of Vietnam's lengthy conflicts with some of the largest powers on Earth. While the primary focus is on the United States' miserable efforts to prop up a porous, anti-Communist government in South Vietnam as a bulwark against Chinese and Soviet expansionism, the series' makers expend no less energy detailing important antecedents to America's intervention. Of vital interest are the first two hours, which tell the compelling story of France's 80-year colonial rule in Southeast Asia and the rise of a European-educated generation of Vietnamese intellectuals turned warriors, chief among them the architect of Vietnam's prolonged revolt against the West, Ho Chi Minh. By the time a viewer comes to understand how and why America shrugged off Vietnamese independence after World War II, it is easier to grasp the tragic context for the disastrous military campaign of the 1960s and '70s. The rest of the series covers the various expansions of America's war in Vietnam through a succession of presidents from Eisenhower to Nixon, carefully explaining the sundry issues that drove each commander-in-chief to send more money, more troops, and more weapons into a seemingly unwinnable and dubious battle. The later volumes take the story into Laos and the horrible siege of Cambodia by a U. S. -supported Khmer Rouge, and examine the history of the antiwar movement in America. No stone is left unturned in this important project, which runs some 13 hours and should be considered one of the most important television series in history. -Tom Keogh An extraordinary, Emmy award-winning series about the people who masterminded this controversial war, and the Americans and Vietnamese who fought it. [+]Includes 13 videos.

Review War and Remembrance, Vol. 2 (Boxed Set) / Mpi Home Video:The second half of this massive miniseries covers events from the last two years of World War II with members of our fictitious family-the Henrys-scattered throughout the world. Pariah "Pug" Henry (Robert Mitchum) visits Russia and England as an advisor-and proposes to his much-younger lover, Pamela (Victoria Tennant)-before retuning to the Pacific theater to join his son Byron (Hart Bochner), a submariner, in battling the Japanese. Meanwhile, Byron's wife, Natalie (Jane Seymour), and her uncle (John Gielgud) continue their harrowing plight, starting in the "Paradise Ghetto" and leading to the Auschwitz concentration camp. This half-11. 5 hours-aired on ABC in May 1989, six months after the first half. Unfortunately there is no kinetic battle sequence like the first half's Midway clash to absorb the viewer. Director Dan Curtis relies more on newsreel footage (and the sometimes heavy-handedness of narrator William Woodson) to cover large events. To compensate, the filmmakers give inordinate screen time to the conspiracy to kill Hitler (Steven Berkoff) by his inner circle. Like in Herman Wouk's novel, Hitler's decision to eliminate the Jews is the backbone of the entire series and the film's steely reenactments of these events-an amazing achievement for network television-is quite harrowing. Authenticity (filming at Auschwitz) plus ace performances (Seymour has been rarely better, Gielgud is outstanding) combine for a powerful statement, although the whole production is sometimes weighed down by the soap-opera elements of the Henrys' lives. [+]The original Winds of War miniseries had a higher caliber cast, which is missed here. However, a few actors shine in their atypical performances, including Barry Bostwick (who tied with Gielgud for the Golden Globe) as a flamboyant submariner and David Dukes as a desk side attaché who reaches new depths in the war. Although admired and very watchable, the series did not impact the industry as much as its predecessor or sweep the award circuit as other miniseries (Roots, Holocaust, etc. ) did, although it did take home the Emmy for Outstanding Miniseries. The 7-DVD set contains an informative booklet, a CD soundtrack, and a disc of extras. Dan Curtis makes comments over 70 select minutes of the series (shown out of context), hitting the highlights of filming, a nice way of letting the filmmaker talk without searching for the commentary throughout the various discs. There's a new 30-minute feature combining new and old footage on the making of this massive production, and a 15-minute featurette on composer Bob Cobert. -Doug Thomas A grand story of love and death, faith and betrayal, "War and Rememberance- The Final Chapter" completes the saga that began with "The Winds of War". World War II continues to rage and the Henry family is swept up in the battles of Europe and the Pacific. Natalie, Louis and Aaron experience the horror of the Holocaust firsthand at Auschwitz and the world changes forever with the American decision to drop atomic bombs on Japan. Filmed on location in ten countries, this extraordinary $150 million production is the largest and most expensive undertaking in television and motion picture history, featuring spectacular reenactments of the Allied invasions at Normandy and the Philippines. Herman Wouk's classic concludes in the final installment of a mini-series that is nothing shore of unforgettable.

Review Paramount Pictures' Millennium Gift Set / Paramount:Jumping on to the end-of-the-century bandwagon a little early, Paramount Pictures released 10 of their top films in one 10-pack, the Millennium Collection, in 1998. All the films are presented in their widescreen editions; one, Breakfast at Tiffany's, is offered in this format for the first time. The set includes 5 Best Picture Oscar winners and films that took home an additional 33 Academy Awards. All the tapes are available to buy individually. The pack, with a handsome mosaic of faces from the movies, also features collector gift cards (a movie version of baseball cards) and a commemorative booklet detailing the productions of all 10 films. The collection is oddly weighted toward the last 25 years, offering only one film from the 1950s and one from the 1960s. Your taste in current cinema will define the value of the set. Besides Tiffany's, one of Audrey Hepburn's finest films, the collection contains: The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston, Grease with John Travolta, Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now and The Godfather, the funny, whale-saving Star Trek IV-The Voyage Home, Tom Cruise's hit Top Gun, the smash hit Ghost with Demi Moore, Mel Gibson's Celt fest Braveheart, and Forrest Gump with Tom Hanks. -Doug Thomas.

Review Revolutionary Girl Utena Collector's Boxed Set / Software Sculptures/Wea V:A logical step for the young fan of anime is this series from the creator of the popular crossover hit Sailor Moon. The story line skews slightly older, not for its violence but for its complexity. The theme is modern mythology, not intergalactic warfare, so it's more interesting and less violent than in Sailor Moon. And less bubble-headed. Our heroine, Utena, is admired by classmates who share Sailor Moon's giddy hysterics, but Utena herself is solid, noble, and strong. Saved by a prince as a child, Utena dresses in the men's uniform of the expansive Ohtori Academy. Her goal is to be prince, and in this introductory disc (seven episodes, nearly three hours of material), she shows signs of becoming one. The scheming student council allows her into the mysterious forest arena, where she wins a sword duel (not played for blood) and wins the devoted loyalty of Anthy, the mysterious Rose Bride. They become a team, discovering the riddles of the arena forest and fending off challengers (while excelling in classes to boot). While some Westerners may read far too much into the sexual politics of the series, it's very old-fashioned at its core: Utena's affections are girded toward a duelist who just may be the prince who saved her years before. [+]Some mild domestic violence and oddly subtitled songs ("Absolute Destroy Apocalyptic," "Paleozoic Era in the Flies") will ruffle some parents, but for ages 9 and up it's engaging entertainment. Utena delivers for girls what Star Wars did for boys: a never-ending series of adventures that one can imagine themselves in, whether daydreaming or playing in the backyard. The DVD comes in both subtitled and dubbed formats. -Doug Thomas.

Review Weekend Stories (4pc) (Sub) / Facets:If American TV was this good, would we ever go to the movies? In a series of eight loosely connected stories, Polish master Krzysztof Zanussi (Life As a Fatal Sexually Transmitted Disease, The Year of the Quiet Sun) explores life in modern Poland. Like Krzysztof Kieslowski's brilliant Decalogue, which Zanussi produced, Weekend Stories comprises small, self-contained films connected by themes that weave through the series: the connections between urban and rural life, the legacy of communism echoing through contemporary life, the lovely opening image repeated in variation in each film. Zanussi's style is modest and effortless, and he directs with a subtlety and a sense of grace often missing from contemporary movies. Some of the modest moral tales are powerful and profound ("A Woman's Business" and "Little Faith"), others light and humble ("Deceptive Charm" and "The Soul Sings"), but all are sincere and affecting stories rooted in the delicacies of human nature: kindness, love, faith, sin, and forgiveness. The rich portrait they paint of contemporary Poland is warmed by Zanussi's love for his fumbling characters and hope for the future. -Sean Axmaker.

Review Betty Boop - The Definitive Collection / Republic Pictures:Boop it up with the silver screen's original sultry siren in this classic collection from the famed Fleischer Studios. Released just in time for Mother's Day giving, the collection contains more than 13 hours of original Betty Boop cartoon shorts-115 in all-on 8 videocassettes. The deluxe "Collector's Edition Library Case" packaging is designed to be displayed with the spines creating the unforgettable face of this curvaceous cartoon queen. The collection also includes the exclusive Betty Boop "Boopliography," a booklet containing intriguing inside information on this popular cartoon and a special tribute from Richard Fleischer, son of modern animation pioneer and Betty Boop creator Max Fleischer. Volume 1: The Birth of Betty (54 min. ) Beginning with her 1930 debut in Dizzy Dishes as a canine cabaret singer, the wide-eyed wonder winks and wiggles her way to stardom in one hilarious adventure after another. These early films show her evolution into the vivacious vamp she would become, and also feature a special introduction from Max Fleischer's son, Richard. Volume 2: Pre-Code (108 min. ) Betty turns up her megawatt star power in a racy round of pre-Hays Code adventures, from her oh-so-hot hula with the Royal Samoans to her daring bareback escapades under the big top. The curvaceous cutie then brings down the house in a jazzy collage of cartoon classics featuring a cavalcade of performances by Louis Armstrong, Cab Calloway, Rudy Vallee, and Ethel Merman. [+]Volume 3: Surrealism (110 min. ) Take a surrealistic journey into the wonderfully weird world of the Fleischer Studios, where everyday objects take on a loopy life of their own. Then the antics continue when the saucy siren of the silver screen embarks on adventures ranging from a Booped-up birthday party to a supernaturally silly visit with a psyched-out psychic. Volume 4: Musical Madness (106 min. ) The madcap musical merriment continues with a treasure trove of toe-tapping tunes starring America's spit-curled sweetheart. Then join cartoondom's resident vamp for a rollicking romp through a cornucopia of classic fairy tales, from a close encounter with Mother Goose to a nasty scrape with a very big, very bad wolf. Volume 5: Curtain Call (110 min. ) It's showtime once again as America's sassiest scene stealer shines in merry musical tributes to Fanny Brice, Jimmy Durante, Maurice Chevalier, and more. She then teams up with the lovable, lighthearted professor known as "Grampy" for some most mechanical misadventures, from one goofy gaggle of gadgets to the next. Volume 6: Betty's Boys (108 min. ) You can be sure that wherever the boys are, Betty's sure to follow. Prepare to meet a new bushel of Betty's best buddies, including Little Jimmy, Henry, the funniest living American, and the Big Boss himself. From perilous predicament to flat-out flirtation, Betty always gets her man. Volume 7: Betty's Travels (100 min. ) Pack your bags and fasten your seat belts as Betty sets out on a whirlwind series of jaunts by plane, train, and automobile. Also prepare to meet Betty Boop's precious pet pooch, Pudgy. Cuddly, enthusiastic and loyal to the core, Pudgy became Betty's constant companion and was at her side for more than three years. Volume 8: Betty & Pudgy (94 min. ) The canine comedy continues in this chronicle of the adventures of Betty Boop and her cuddly companion, Pudgy the pup. Whether experiencing the first blush of true love or cutting loose with a classroom of funky barnyard pals for some swingin' scat in music school, Pudgy's always ready for an adventure. Also features closing comments from Max Fleischer's son, Richard.

Review War & Peace (BBC) (Box Set) / 20th Century Fox:Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace towers over most novels. It isn't merely the length that impresses-over 1,200 pages-but the number of characters. This BBC/Time-Life serial spans the Napoleonic Wars (1805-20) and incorporates 52 principals and 110 supporting players (a 44-page booklet proves indispensable with identification). Chief among them is Pierre (a bespectacled Anthony Hopkins), an illegitimate idler who becomes Count Bezuhov upon his father's death. Pierre admires Napoleon (David Swift), and chooses not to fight. Cousins Nikolai Rostov (Sylvester Morand) and Andrei Bolkonsky (Alan Dobie) harbor no such reservations. The Yugoslavia-filmed battle sequences convince with their cavalcade of extras, but the drawing-room scenes serve as the heart of the series. (The soft exteriors were shot on film; the crisp interiors on video. ) In these sequences, the other Rostovs, Bolkonskys, and Bezuhovs-notably Nikolai's impetuous sister, Natasha (Morag Hood)-emerge as complex individuals. Occasional inner monologues distinguish them further. [+]There's some overacting from a few cast members, like the splenetic Anthony Jacobs (Prince Bolkonsky), but Dobie, Angela Down (Andrei's sister, Maria), and especially BAFTA winner Hopkins, give three of the more nuanced performances. Dramatized by Jack Pulman (I, Claudius) and directed by TV veteran John Davies (Germinal), this 20-part series follows a black-and-white silent, a Hollywood production (with Henry Fonda and Audrey Hepburn), and an Oscar-winning Russian epic. The British edition, however, stands as the most complete adaptation. As Pulman stated at the time, "Part of the novel's effect is achieved by its sheer weight of detail, the piling up of incident upon incident. " After 15 increasingly compelling hours of marriages, affairs, births, duels, and deaths, it's hard not to feel a kinship with these fatefully entwined families. -Kathleen C. Fennessy.

Review World War 2 Boxset Gung Ho, Submarine Alert, Eagles Over London, / Simitar Ent.:This first installment of Archives of War, a collection focusing on 20th-century warfare, uses as its centerpiece a British silent film shot in the 1920s-The Battle of Ypres, which was produced to resemble a World War I documentary. The rest is an eclectic mix of newsreels shot in Europe and Asia that show how the stage was being set for World War II. The material is presented in its original languages with no translations, but the footage itself is often fascinating. The second installment focuses on the leaders of the nations involved in World War II. In addition to Hitler and Mussolini propaganda clips, perhaps the most interesting material features Franklin D. Roosevelt, whose famed "date which will live in infamy" speech is shown in its entirety. Roosevelt also is seen delivering his devastatingly sarcastic speech lampooning Republicans, and Winston Churchill appears in a variety of newsreels. -Robert J. McNamara.
