When originally broadcast on PBS, The West was presented over eight nights, with the eighth and ninth installments combined into a two-hour finale. That final broadcast has been split in half for this video release, and the hourlong Volume 8, "Ghost Dance," covers the years 1887-1914, as the West was growing into a fully established industrial force. Opening with the Oklahoma Land Rush of 1889, when 2 million acres of Indian territory were opened for homesteading, this chapter further explores the displacement of the Native Americans in the wake of total military defeat. The episode's title refers to a ceremonial ritual that promised to restore "the lost era of th...

Cinematographer Andrzej Bartkowiak, the cameraman behind Speed, Lethal Weapon 4, and The Devil's Advocate, makes his directorial debut with a lively but by-the-numbers film that mixes Hong Kong action pyrotechnics with gritty urban gang drama. Jet Li stars as a jailed cop named Han who hightails it to Oakland, California, to seek revenge for the gang-related murder of his brother. What he finds, though, is a fierce war between his father's syndicate and that of Isaak O'Day (Delroy Lindo) for control of the city's precious waterfront land, as both groups are trying to make a deal with a corrupt football-team owner to build a new stadium. The political ...

Jack and his mother live on a farm where they are struggling to make ends meet. The mother decides that selling their beloved cow Bessie is the only way to earn enough money to sustain them. On the way to town, Jack happens upon a man who trades him five magic beans for the cow. Needless to say Jack's mother is less than pleased with Jack's trade and throws the beans outside. We all know what happens next. This lively retelling of the classic fairy tale is courtesy of the "Happily Ever After: Fairy Tales for Every Child" series from HBO. The vocal talent of Robert Guillaume, Harry Belafonte, Jackee Harry and Tone-Loc gives the European fairy tale an African Ameri...

Men of War stars tall, craggy Dolph Lundgren as a down-and-out commando who agrees to do another job because there's nothing else he knows how to do. He assembles a crack team and travels to an isolated Pacific island with orders to secure it for a mysterious business venture. But once there, he discovers an idyllic paradise with peaceful natives who welcome the mercenaries into their village. When Dolph learns what the venture is really about, he decides he's on the wrong side and, with part of his team, fights to defend the island from destruction. The first third of Men of War is drenched in sweaty machismo--the camera constantly lingers over rippling mus...

Volume 9 of The West begins with the World Columbian Expedition of 1893, a colossal Chicago fair marking the 400th anniversary of Columbus's arrival in the New World, and effectively announcing the closure of the Western frontier. Historian Richard White observes that the closing of the West was marked by romantic idealism regarding the past, masking the real and more complicated history that pointed to the industrial future. That future would begin, in part, with the engineering marvels that would feed distant river water to the parched land of Los Angeles. This financial coup--cagily carried out by Los Angeles officials Fred Eaton and William Mulholland--would r...

After the bloody battles chronicled in volume 4 of The West, this volume (spanning the years 1868-74) recalls the continuing violence that shaped the new frontier, but focus on the transcontinental railroad gives this 84-minute episode an uplifting, more optimistic tone. Uniting east and west after the horrors of the Civil War, the transcontinental railroad was completed with the historic track-joining ceremony at Promontory Point, Utah, on May 10, 1869--the culmination of a colossal effort that claimed nearly 1,500 lives but forever changed the face of America. The sheer magnificence of this achievement is presented through startling written accounts and photograp...
