The War: A Film by Ken Burns is an epic documentary that examines the people, the time, and the places of World War II. This 6-disc set includes all full-length seven episodes that originally aired on PBS. Creating sweeping documentaries about wartime is nothing new to Ken Burns, who is perhaps best known as the director of the award-winning “The Civil War”. The War: A Film by Ken Burns takes viewers to the most pivotal event of the twentieth century, the frontlines of World War II. The documentary covers the lives of four American soldiers fighting for their country overseas, focusing on both historical events and personal triumphs and tragedies. Using the same style that made him so famous, this 6-disc set includes letters, testimonies, and footage that took over 6 years to bring to life in this great 15 hour film. Top voice talents, including stars like Tom Hanks, Alan Arkin, and Samuel L. Jackson, narrate parts of the story. The War: A Film by Ken Burns shows how The Greatest Generation fought the war that changed the world forever.Product Identifiers
