 CBS/Paramount Hits New Low July 16, 2008
14 out of 15 found this review helpful
Quite frankly I didn't think that CBS/Paramount could do any worse than their mediocre (at best) transfers of Beauty and the Beast and The Waltons (not to mention the truly wretched packaging of that last series). The megacorporation has surpassed itself with their release of the important mini-series Holocaust. Not only is the transfer as poor as that of Beauty and the Beast and The Waltons but the release does not even contain the complete mini-series (caveat emptor: CBS/Paramount tells you in a microcopic sized sentence that this "may" (I love the ambiguity here) not contain the complete series.
This release shows (if further evidence was needed) that CBS/Paramount does not care about the quality production of DVDs. It shows that they don't care about TV history. It shows that they don't care about consumers or they wouldn't routinely put out such poor transfers. It shows that they care only about one thing--profit (since the DVD's they release are clearly produced at the lowest possible cost to them). A pox on both their houses. DON'T BUY THIS. WRITE CBS/PARAMOUNT (VIACOM) TO COMPLAIN. If you don't do either you are perpetuating what is surely some of the worst practises within the DVD industry. And you deserve what you get.

I saw this miniseries when it first came out. I still love the movie!
 Well done Mini-series July 14, 2008
Great cast and very thoughtful. I think it is one of the better movies done about the Holocaust. Very underated.

I had been looking for this DVD and couldn't find it anywhere. Then I recieved an e-mail from Amazon stating that it was coming out in a couple of weeks. I was so glad. The acting is superb and the movie is as good as I remembered it to be. This is one title definately worth adding to your collection. On the down side the picture quality could be much better than it is. I would have thought that they would have brought it up to the standards of today.
Holocaust July 13, 2008
Have been waiting for this DVD for a very long time. It is the best mini series ever made in my opinion. This personal account of the holocaust was very well presented and the actors were all excellent and very convincing in their roles....Holocaust
