Ruby T. reviewed Ken Burns: The Statue of Liberty DVD

Information brought tears to my eyes.

I was on Liberty Island in April and this DVD was so well produced; the emotions of being there resurfaced. Interviewing many people with a variety of backgrounds showed the complete picture from ALL angles. Not everyone sees the statue as a symbol of hope and freedom!! Seeing the renovation done of the statue re-emphasizes its importance. Thank you for having it available.

The Statue Comes to Life

We bought this for our grandsons - we have eight. It tells the statue story in a way that fascinates every age - including ours. Excellence is Ken Burns second name.

The Statue of Liberty DVD by PBS Home Vi

Wonderful story of an amazing statue. Seeing the statue in New York for the first time brought tears to my eyes; seeing this film had the same effect.
