Customer Reviews:
Misplaced Review.......2005-06-23
The Review by Ariafresca is misplaced. He is reviewing another film, not Thomas Jefferson: A View from the Mountain. He refers to actors and sets, but this film has none. What it does have is an unflinching look at America's oldest and most deeply-rooted moral equivocation, one that haunts us still today. The films's intelligence, thoroughness and honesty are constitute a rare find. How nice to be reasoned with rather than pandered to or berated.
Jefferson and slavery.......2004-12-01
This documentary, written and narrated by Martin Doblmeier, focuses on Thomas Jefferson the slaveholder. It explores his feelings and actions, which often conflicted, regarding the institution of slavery. In my opinion, the film presents the material in an unbiased and nonjudgmental fashion that preserves Jefferson's position as a hero of the American Revolution and champion of freedom. It is an excellent film and a great companion to the Ken Burns documentary on Jefferson.
Thomas Jefferson--a poor presentation........2001-08-01
This is one of the poorest educational videos I have ever seen. The set is unbelievably unimaginative and unattractive. m The actor who is pretneding to be Thomas Jefferson talking about himeself (something Jefferson seldom did) looks like a character from a third rate farce--with a wig that doesn't fit and very little expression in his voice. It is a wholly unconvincing and unpleasant portrayal. Don't waste your money on this one.
Excellent movie!.......2000-02-22
Unbiased, systematic and dynamic composition of historical facts and interpretations, authentic documents, extraordinary landscapes and music. A viewer can enjoy Jefferson's controversial biography set in one of the most dramatic periods of American history, as well as the evolution of collective and individual ethics related to slavery and human rights.
