Product Description:
This Emmy Award-winning powerful adaptation of John Jakes' best-seller tells the story of the turbulent events and emotions that ignited the Civil War. In the tradition of Gone With The Wind this glorious epic focuses on the lives of two families who are geographically and ideologically placed on opposite sides of the war - The North and The South. The saga follows the families through their changing fortunes at home and the harsh realities of the battlefields until the South surrenders and the families are reunited in friendship. In the final installment the story of the two families continues through Post-Civil War Reconstruction into pioneer Indian territories.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA UPC: 012569423121 Manufacturer No: 4231

Book one and two are fantastic. This series gives you the clearest vision of the reality of the Civil war yet produced. Sadly, book three is an absolute disaster. I can't stress this enough. It is totally unwatchable if you enjoyed books one and two. It's not only bad, but it demeans the first two books by insulting the intelligence of the viewer. It clearly was shot for profit and nothing else. Hats off to Patrick Swayze for opting out. I have given the 3 volume set 5 stars only because of the excellence ... Read More

What the heck happened to James Read?!!
Him and Swayze are fantastic on screen together, perfectly fitting their roles as George Hazard and Ory Main.
IT really is a great mini-series, probably best one made, and while great production, plot, ensemble of actors etc, it is the main story of Ory and George that holds it together and give it charisma of big budget film week after week.
One of a kind mini-series, at least the first two, featuring two charismatic leads in their prime, who ... Read More

This moving but horrifying story of two families during the American Civil War brings home the reality of what political conflict can do to ordinary families. The sons of two wealthy families meet as cadets at WestPoint Military Academy where they are training to be officers. Orry Main is a true son of the South, raised on a large plantation which owns slaves, while George Hazzard is the son of the owner of an iron works. The young men form an instant and abiding friendship which grows stronger through the ... Read More

Enjoyed the video but the story was left unfinished. Book 3 (in the DVD Heaven and Hell) only had 1 DVD as compared to Books 1 and 2 which had 2 DVD's each and so the story was never concluded. If you read the book version of Heaven and Hell the story did have a conclusion. I don't know if their is a missing DVD or the TV series just didn't finish the story. It is most unsatisfying.

NORTH AND SOUTH : I enjoyed the movie a lot but the CD number 5 which is the last one ends by a bloody murder of one of the main character and previously other good characters. We understand that the CD does not reproduce the real end of the movie so it is extremely sad and disappointing to visualize this brutal end to finish the movie which was not reproduce to us in its integrality. This is very aggrevating considering the price paid.
