Video Description
Fifty years after it was originally released, VICTORY AT SEA remains one of the most moving, thoughtful, and important documents to emerge from World War II. Winner of nearly every media award including the Peabody and the Emmy, VICTORY AT SEA inspired a nation and helped define historical programming for a generation.
Made by the men who had lived through the tragedy and triumph of the conflict, and presented to a nation which was only beginning to grasp the new American reality that emerged after VJ-Day, VICTORY AT SEA is considered one of the most influential and important documentaries ever created. Created by Henry Salomon (who assisted Samuel Eliot Morrison in writing a history of the war at sea), the 26 episodes that constitute VICTORY AT SEA were drawn from tens of thousands of hours of footage shot on all fronts of the war, and by cameramen from all nations. Narrated by Leonard Graves, and set to now-familiar music written by Richard Rodgers, VICTORY AT SEA is a timeless, riveting remembrance of the greatest conflict man has ever known, and a visual, aural, and psychic tribute to the men and women who saved the world from the fascist threat 1939-1945.
This new edition of this classic television program represents the first time it has been available in true 24p high definition. Included in this three disc set are all 26 original episodes in their entirety, along with a special bonus commentary tracks featuring film historian Peter C. Rollins, PhD. Also included is the original publicity booklet and press releases in PDF form. (Please note, you must own a computer equipped with a Bluray drive to access the publicity materials.)
