Product Description

When he called himself "a skinny kid with a funny name" at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, his political star was already on the rise. By the time he decimated the competition in 2004 race for the Illinois Senate, he was the bona fide golden child of a Democratic party desperately in need of a winner. In many ways, the story of Barack Obama is a uniquely American tale of the 21st century, where racial lines are blurry and the most interesting chapter is just beginning.

Amazon.com

This cable-television biography about the life of Illinois senator Barack Obama was made before he began campaigning to be the Democratic party's candidate for the 2008 presidential race. Still, the program suggests Obama has one or another kind of profound, Anerican destiny as a mixed-race activist who never comfortably fit into one or another group, and had to look deep into his own roots to understand his identity. The son of a white American mother and black Kenyan father, Obama was abandoned by the latter when he returned to his native country to work for its improvement. Raised by his mother--whom Obama credits with teaching him many of his values--and his grandmother, Obama lived in Hawaii as a child but moved to Indonesia for a few years when his mom remarried. There, Obama saw cyclical poverty and the underlying factors that perpetuate it before returning to Hawaii. Interviews with childhood friends and his sister describe Obama's restlessness before attending Harvard law school and propelling himself into a life of public service and community activism. Often accused of lacking enough political experience to qualify him for the White House, Obama comes across in this show as a visionary and experienced consensus-builder who can reach across opposing points of view. The program ends with details about Obama's entry into the U.S. Senate and his rise in the Democratic party, but a post-program coda catches us up with the history of his recent campaign. --Tom Keogh

Adored by children worldwide, but often with a different name and emanating from disparate myths, he continues to create instantaneous mirth and joy. Join us on a jolly journey through time to reveal his roots--from the Roman Befana to the Germanic Berchta and Knecht Ruprecht, from Saint Nicholas to Santa Claus.

Tracing the 1700-year-old evolution from real-life Turkish Bishop to the rotund and jolly pitchman of today, this 45-minute installment of the Legends & Myths series of the popular A&E biographies takes a delightfully thorough look at the world's most famous gift giver. A merry Jack Perkins chairs the proceedings, chock full of historic detail, interviews with the likes of Father Andrew Greeley, a behind-the-scenes look at Santa school, and a comprehensive tracking of the change through paintings, cartoons, and movies. Whether revealing that the revered St. Nicholas rescued a dowryless woman by placing gold in her drying stockings or showing the picketing of the 1984 murderous Santa flick Silent Night, Deadly Night, this documentary informs, entertains, and, ultimately, redeems the old guy as the embodiment of the Christmas spirit. --Kimberly Heinrichs

Description

He fought his way from the mean streets of Hong Kong to international superstardom. With blazing fists and a burning passion, he became one of the most celebrated kung-fu masters of all time. In classic films like Fists of Fury and Enter the Dragon, he created the martial arts action genre that has become a favorite of moviegoers worldwide. But just as he reached the height of fame, he was struck down by a mysterious ailment or was it the curse that supposedly follows his family? This fascinating program examines the short, meteoric life of Bruce Lee. Exclusive interviews with friends and family including his late son Brandon and extensive footage from home movies, screen-tests and his legendary films help reveal the man behind the myth of the Immortal Dragon.

Amazon.com

Bruce Lee was an amazingly prolific, influential, and graceful man, and his mark on the world have been assured even if he hadn't made a single film. But those five films he made as an adult (he was a child actor in Hong Kong before returning to the U.S.), along with his untimely death, have captured the imagination of generations of martial arts fans. Because of his high profile, though, Lee's life has been well documented over the years--so this A&E Biography proves somewhat redundant, despite its quality. The Immortal Dragon may be more accurate than other offerings--Dragon, the Lee bio that starred Jason Scott Lee (no relation, but a remarkable resemblance), is probably the most entertaining--but there aren't enough revelations here to make it indispensable. At a scant 50 minutes, The Immortal Dragon may not have enough time to fulfill on its initial promise. How unlike Lee. --Randy Silver
