 Realistic Portrayal June 22, 2008
This is an excellent saga of two families during WWII. It is interesting to see how attractive having power became to an ordinary German man. The movie also presents the heartache of victims of the German mindset. I had seen this years ago, and had been waiting for it to come out on DVD. I ordered a second series for a young person, hoping to keep alive the seriousness of the Nazi terror and the reality of concentration camps.
NICK' PERSONAL TAKE June 21, 2008
I HAVE BEEN WAITING A LONG TIME FOR THIS PARTICULAR MOVIE TO COME OUT ON DVD FORMAT. I REMEMBER WATCHING THE MINI-SERIES ON TV AND I BELIEVE MY PATIENCE WAS FINALLY REWARDED. I AM ONE VERY HAPPY CAMPER THAT THERE IS A SITE SUCH AS AMAZON.COM I PERSONALLY RECOMMEND THIS DVD TO ANYONE WHO REALLY ENJOYS HISTORY.
 Terrible but historic June 21, 2008
It was a terrible time for the human race, but needs telling. This movie tells of a Jewish upper middle family, caught in the political web of the nazi's. Although it stays focused with this family it tells the story of most Jews in world war II Europe. Must see !
choiceless choices June 20, 2008
I use this film in the classes I teach. Both families make choices, both share the consequences of those choices. The wealthy suffer, the poorer suffer. The differences are astounding. This film is a great teaching tool, is one all should see if we hope to make better choices for our world and the people in it. Historically the piece is on target. It keeps ones attention and shows how society and individuals in society are swept up in a movement that may seem relatively harmless at the beginning, but can cause endless harm and suffering to the masses.
as good as I remember June 16, 2008
I remember seeing the mini series when it came out in the 70's----It still holds up after 30 years---- the acting is great---a well done mini series and a well done dvd
