DVD Reviews of American Experience: MacArthur
DVD Review: The documentary of a true American military hero
Summary: 5 Stars
As originally broadcast on public television, MacArthur is the documentary of a true American military hero, General Douglas MacArthur - America's most decorated officer in World War I, and a man who recovered from severe defeat from the Japanese in the opening months of the Pacific campaign, to make an ultimately triumphant return to the Philippines in World War II, and who masterminded a brilliant invasion in the Korean War only to be severely reversed by overwhelming Chinese forces. As egotistical as he was courageous, MacArthur fought doggedly against anyone who dared to question his military judgment, even the President of the United States. This in-depth documentary includes closed captions, scene selection, and printable material for educators. Enthusiastically recommended for home, school, and public DVD libraries. 2 DVDs, 240 minutes, color.
