DVD Reviews of Beyond Barbed Wire/Go For Broke
DVD Review: Farewell to Manzanar historical perspective
Summary: 1 Stars
This was a little too dry for my intent. I had difficulty staying focused. I am sure my high school students would find it quite soporific!DVD Review: Beyond Barbed Wire/Go For Broke
Summary: 4 Stars
Good historical documentary on the World War II Internment camps established by the U.S. government under the questionable guise of "military necessity." Also, information about the 442nd regimental combat ballation
and its role in the course of World War II and on the Japanese-American citizens held in the Internment camps.
DVD Review: 442nd Go for Broke
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this DVD for my husband. His uncle, Leo Kikuchi, was in the 442nd, so this was especially meaningful. We both really enjoyed this documentary, it was very well done and so very touching. Unfortunately I don't recall learning anything about this in my history classes in school and only found out about the internment and 442nd when I met my husband. Outstanding video!DVD Review: Excellent documentary on the 100th/442nd
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a well done documentary on the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII that I didnt learn about until I finished high school and learned it from talking to friends and neighbors. The producers and directors did an excellent job giving background info and shorts that were used as commercials back then to justify the action taken at the time. Many of the men in the 100th/442nd never talked about their experiences until just recently, even to their family or spouses. They were able to speak to the interviewers and that was a lot of history and emotion pouring out..a job well done!!! I thank the people involved in making this long due documentary.DVD Review: Beyond Barbed Wire
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the better documentaries I've seen on the subject. Recommended for later generations of Americans of Japanese ancestry to appreciate what happened to their people in WWII, their suffering and sacrifice. Students of American history may also find this interesting. The interviewees bring to light several important lessons of U.S. history: the Constitution (guarantor of our rights) is only a piece of paper, racism is a recurrent problem in America and the currency of freedom is blood.
