Summary: Noble Effort
Comment: This is a longer version than the VHS. It is the mini-series as made for TV on DVD; this accounts for the additional minutes. The movies is broken into four segments, which I objected to (at first) but it gives one an intermission every hour or so. The content of the movie is exactly the same as the VHS tape. I have heard some people say that it did not have this scene or that scene, but they were all there. I would rather have had the DVD run as one movie (hence the 4 stars), but I really do enjoy this movie and I do recommend this DVD highly.

Summary: Stood the test of time
Comment: I remembered watching this years and years ago when it was first shown on television, so I wasn't sure how it would stand the test nearly 20 years later. As it turned out I enjoyed it, didn't regret buying it, and don't feel the need to hide it at the back of my collection.
