War - A New Ken Burns Masterpiece
The War - A Ken Burns Film
Release Date: October 2, 2007
Ken Burns is famous for his hard-hitting documentaries, but never before has he put together such a remarkable piece of film making as his new picture The War. This seven-part PBS series takes a never-before-seen look at the Second World War and the effect it had on American lives. This six disc set contains all fifteen hours of unbelievably impressive footage, much of which has been newly discovered. With narration by some of the biggest names in Hollywood and the intellectual community and music by famed jazz musician Wynton Marsalis, this film will go down as the crowning achievement of Burns, as well as the defining archive of information about the war. As an added note, Burns will be speaking at the Lutcher theater in Orange on October 17, 2007 at 6:30 PM.
