The ambitious TV event War and Remembrance was the final opus in the golden age of the maxi-miniseries. This six-disc set offers the first half (seven episodes) of ABC's mammoth 30-hour production of Herman Wouk's bestseller--itself a sequel to the landmark Winds of War--mixing fictional and real characters around the events of World War II. It starts a week after the attack on Pearl Harbor and abruptly stops in July 1943 with the fall of Mussolini. Only half of the first series' lead actors return, including Robert Mitchum as the patriarch Captain "Pug" Henry. Although Mitchum is too old and less dashing than he should be, his presence is exactly what the series needs as it wavers between pop entertainment and a graphic look at the atrocities of war. The series' multiple storylines branch from the Henry family tree, from his sons' naval battles to his daughter-in-law's (Jane Seymour) harrowing flight through Europe with her famous father (John Gielgud), witnessing firsthand the collapse of European Jewish life in the grip of Nazi power.

Director Dan Curtis said that after The Winds of War, the opportunity to show the Jews' plight led him to take on another daunting production. He takes the viewer into Auschwitz with unflinching realism (producer and former internee Branko Lustig returned to the subject a decade later with Schindler's List) and is just as deft with a few massive battle sequences combining models with colorized footage. Sometimes the soap opera of the characters' affairs seems pretty sappy, especially with some uneven acting. The DVD set also contains two featurettes from 1988 and 2002. --Doug Thomas

Customer Reviews of War and Remembrance - Volume 1 - Parts 1-7

You'll remember it forever.
Other people have said this is a movie you'll remember "for a long time." Well, I watched this mini-series on television when I was 7 years old, and scenes from it still stick out in my memory almost 18 years later! I'm buying the set today and plan to eventually share this mini-series with my own children, so that they "remember to never forget." <

>For those who wish to protect their children from images of violence, be warned, there are fairly graphic depictions of the atrocities committed during the Holocaust. My personal opinion is that depictions of violence are everywhere, and these depictions at least have the benefit of conveying, in a manner that mere words cannot, an important aspect of world history.


What a great mini-series!
My husband and I had forgotten how excellent this mini-series was! We purchased, "Winds of War", and enjoyed that so much that we decided to purchase, "War and Remembrance -Vol. 1, and "War and Remembrance", the Final Chapter. We highly recommend all three volumes! It's one of the best mini-series ever made!


A must have item
The continuation of this WWII saga from the "Winds of War" grips you at a very basal level, you can't get it out of your mind for sometime after watching it. Dan Curtis spared no effort to make the horror of WWII come through, especially in the his decpiction of the German atrocities towards the Jews. This is a must have for the video reference library of any one who has an interest in WWII. <
> <
>The cast has been upgraded from "Winds of War" with new and better suited actors for the parts of Aaron and Natalie Jastrow, they really gave superb performances! <
> <
>An epic such as "War and Rememberance" may never be repeated again.
