"We work furiously, pressing against fatigue, flailing at times and losing our balance on the slippery rocks, pressed downstream by the icy water, we want to succeed, to accomplish this task for the Roshi. He watches quietly. Finally ... As Alan and I pick up our work boots on our barefooted way to our cabins, I see, side by side on a large stone next to the rushing water, Roshi's zoris. He walked right by them. ... Master P.T.N.H. ..."

The first half of this hour-long program examines the design and construction of the Statue of Liberty using drawings, photographs, and readings (Jeremy Irons gives voice to French sculptor Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi, who designed the statue).

Unforgivable Blackness - The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson

ISBN-13: 978-1-4157-0744-9, ISBN: 1-4157-0744-8

"Ken Burns's documentary style is so unencumbered; the subject matter is effortlessly presented. His regular mix of photos, subtle sound effects, excellent musical score, and actor readings of historical text hasn't changed since his breakthrough of The Civil War. And it doesn't need to. Even though this 220-minute production is a biography--on heavyweight champion Jack Johnson--the film resonates about the how race was dealt with in the ..."

by Carolyn Mccormick, Adam Arkin, Paul Barnes, Allen Moore, Buddy Squires, Ken Burns, Pam Tubridy Baucom, Susanna Steisel, Geoffrey C. Ward, Lorie Barnum, Kathleen Barry, Tim Clark, Sally Kellerman, Ronnie Gilbert, Julie Harris, Amy Madigan, Keith David, directed by Ken Burns

"Feminism is a problematic word: to some it means the ongoing struggle for the equal rights of women; for others the connotations are derogatory, the word conjuring images of emasculating woman. And for still others, mostly the younger generation who grew up with mothers in the workforce, the term is outdated, referring to a movement whose relevance is diminishing. Postfeminism, antifeminism, the feminist backlash--these terms are wielde ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-932228-99-1, ISBN: 1-932228-99-3

"The Boys of 2nd Street Park is an award-winning documentary that explores the divergent paths taken by a generation of boys who grew up in New York City during the 1960’s. Set against the unforgettable music and events from that era, the film focuses on six men, now in their mid 50s – from childhood days on the basketball court to the tragedies and triumphs that define adulthood. Through extraordinary, intimate interviews, personal phot ..."






Mark Twain - A Film Directed by Ken Burns
by Kevin Conway, Keith David, Philip Bosco, Blythe Danner, Tim Clark, Dayton Duncan, Allen Moore, Buddy Squires, Pam Tubridy Baucom, Geoffrey C. Ward, Ken Burns, directed by Ken Burns

Color, Full Screen, Ntsc
ISBN-13: 978-1-4157-0253-6, ISBN: 1-4157-0253-5

"Given the legendary life of its subject, it's not surprising that Mark Twain is perhaps the most entertaining documentary Ken Burns has made. The creator of The Civil War and Jazz achieves reverent harmony with the magnificent story of Missouri-born author Samuel Clemens (a.k.a. Mark Twain), encompassing legend and fact with an exhilarating sense of adventure. Hailed by Hemingway as the originator of American literature, Twain (a nom de ..."






Ansel Adams
A Documentary Film
by Josh Hamilton, Barbara Feldon, Eli Wallach, Ansel Adams, David Ogden Stiers, Ric Burns, Buddy Squires, Jon Else, Michael Chin, Li-Shin Yu, Adrienne Bramhall, Annette Handley Chandler, Inness Wei, Kate Roth Knull, Margaret Drain, Marilyn Ness, Mark Samels, Steve Rivo, directed by Ric Burns
Dvd, Published 2004 by Pbs Paramount
Color, Widescreen, Ntsc
ISBN-13: 978-1-4157-0231-4, ISBN: 1-4157-0231-4

"Ric Burns's documentary for the American Experience series winningly persuades one to think of Ansel Adams as not only the greatest American photographer of the 20th century, but also one of its most treasured artists. Using the familiar formula of New York (and his brother Ken's documentaries), Burns vividly brings Adams's world to life. Narrator David Ogden Stiers is used minimally after the initial set-up, leaving the words to curato ..."






Huey Long
(1985)
by Huey Long, Ken Burns, David Mccullough, Russell Long, Arthur Schlesinger Jr., Jennings Randolph, Buddy Squires, Amy Stechler, Richard Kilberg, Geoffrey C. Ward, I.F. Stone, Robert Penn Warren, directed by Ken Burns

Full Screen, Dolby, Digital Sound, Color, Ntsc
ISBN-13: 978-1-4157-0240-6, ISBN: 1-4157-0240-3

"The story of Huey Long is the quintessential drama of power and ethics. To his constituents, he was a populist hero. To his critics, he was the unscrupulous "dictator of Louisiana" who didn't break the law, but used the law to achieve his own ends. A towering figure on the political landscape, Louisiana's infamous governor and United States senator may well have wound up in the White House, had he not been felled by an assassin's bullet ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-4157-0258-1, ISBN: 1-4157-0258-6

"The complicated life of Thomas Jefferson is the subject of this excellent documentary by noted filmmaker Ken Burns. Using techniques that will seem comfortably familiar to viewers of other films by Burns, historians and writers (including Joseph Ellis, Daniel Boorstin, Garry Wills, and Gore Vidal) appear on camera to speak about Jefferson, a cast of actors read the words of Jefferson and others. The visuals include beautifully photograp ..."

Black & White, Dvd-Video, Full Screen, Widescreen, Ntsc
ISBN-13: 978-0-7942-0168-5, ISBN: 0-7942-0168-7

"How did some of the most beautiful melodies of the 20th century come out of a man described as depressive, hypochondriacal, remote, and alcoholic? This stirring 2001 documentary cannot answer that question about Richard Rodgers, but it provides a near-perfect blend of biography, personal reminiscence, and music appreciation. The latter comes via experts sitting at their pianos: Richard Rodney Bennett, Barbara Carroll, Andrew Lloyd ..."

"This Academy Award-winning film tells the unforgettable story of Gerda Weissmann Klein and her six-year ordeal as a victim of Nazi cruelty. Rendered in a deceptively simple yet extraordinarily powerful manner, the film explores the effects Weissman’s experience had on the rest of her life. By the end of the war she had lost her parents, brother, home, possessions, and community; even the dear friends she made in the labor camps, with wh ..."
