Featured review
Mr ken burns for his ever so connective and brutally consistent narrative talents and partner in the direction crew together with lynn novick and sara botstein. This documentary doesnt just put the magnifying glass on the usa, indirec tly it tells the story about how the entire globe positioned itself on the jewish and other surpressed minorities going under the term of refugees during the nazi era.
Its just a pitty mr burns (et.co.) that you didnt make this series in 1985 when the war generation still lived, the year you famed the brooklyn bridge forever. I think that the number of reciepients are highly diminished due to digital media platforms, the topic of ww2 is alien and the subject of the jewish destiny is a heavy subject to elaborate and devour for the fast food and fast news generation x and z'ers of today.
I really admire the efforts done searching archives for pictorials and film reels used in this 3 part series, loads of material i havent seen in the past, and i, the grumpy old man, have a sofisticated interest on an amateur level the ww2 history and have seen almost everything that has been issued from english, french, german and japanese language spheres + the italian, and loads and loads of norwegian war history.
Im glad mr burns that you still have many productive years to come, i can not praise enough the impact and inspiration youve released in miself as your products have appeared
so to everyone sceptical to the harrowing title making usa seem like a crook, well then watch and learn, cause the refugee problem will always be there. Its an overwhelming recommend from the g.o.m..

Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaPeter Coyote, the narrator of this series, has been a frequent narrator in Ken Burns's documentaries since their first collaboration, 1996's The West. In a 2019 New York Magazine interview with Coyote and Burns conducted by Tim Greiving (during the release of Burns's film Country Music), Greiving asked, "Ken, is it project-specific when you choose to use Peter?" and Burns's response was, "Yes it is. I would ask him for every project except those that are subject-wise African-American. There's a process: We would prefer that Peter not see the script and he prefers not to see the script. And we do not run the film while we're recording. We get about 95 percent of the way through editing, and then we say, 'Time for Peter.' An episode might run an hour and 50 minutes. Peter reads it cold. And more often than you could possibly believe, that first take is often terrific. It's usually two, three takes. I'm sure it now drives him insane. I always say, 'Perfect. One more for the insurance company.'"
