DVD Reviews of Modern Marvels: The St. Louis Arch
DVD Review: Can't ask for more
Summary: 5 Stars
When talking about St. Louis, the first impression bumping into my mind is the Gateway Arch. I've visited there several times when I lived in Illinois. I also brought my friends and even my parents from Taiwan there. Although the shape is quite simple, it's just breathtaking and I've always enjoyed watching it and being there.
The film dates back to Louisiana Purchase and Lewis and Clark Expedition. All essential knowledge of the arch, including the background, motivation, competition, design, and construction, is covered and each part of the above shares a reasonable time to watch, I think. Some stories are also quite interesting and entertaining. Unlike other THC DVD's usually weak at the technical description, this film, on the contrary, does a great job for this and I am satisfied with it.
Generally speaking, this film is succinct but quite inside the skin. It's pretty well-organized, too. I've always tried to look for a good St. Louis Arch film and put it in my collections. This one serves the purpose. I have also bought couple more as presents for my friends from civil engineering.
My only complain is that THC should release it earlier, if any.
