  • Complete version, but ...

    This set is complete, but is unfortunately a non anamorphic presentation, meaning that it doesn't fill up the tv screen (about 80%). It was a promotional set labeled "not for retail sale". There is also no menu of any kind and are no special features. The set, as I mentioned is complete, unlike the 4 disc versions for sale that have been heavily edited, so if you don't mind the above issues, it's worth owning. The set was new and unopened, so the seller said he was unaware of it's short comings. He also said he would correct his description of the set on seller page. As for the content, I can sort of understand why the 4 disc version has been edited., as iIt makes the U.S. government look extremely bad in ithe way Native Americans were treated. It should be shown unedited to all high school students, and all those who wish to know the unvarnished truth of how we mostly destroyed a great native culture.

  • Great mini serries about a western family

    Was a great story about the West It really tries to show how it affected the Indians. Great writers and directing. A cast of very good actors. My favorite character was Abe Wheeler. Christian Kane played Abe and made him a so believable person. The world was so different back then, we can't judge it by our standards. We can't change the past but if we can learn by our mistakes we will be a better people.

  • Another great Spielberg work

    Into the West starting in 1827 Virginia follow the Wheeler family and the development of relationships with the Lakota family of Loved by the Buffalo and his sister Thunder Heart Woman. Engaging, entertaining, heartfelt. What an amazingly wonderful work. Highly Recommended. Suitable for all ages. A must see and own to view again.

  • This family is yours for the viewing.

    A history buff would find it hard work to refute this naked saga of the early West. An engaging family becomes intimate through several generations of growth and struggle. You won't want this great story to end.

  • EXCELLENT - HIGHLY RECOMMEND

    This was a great movie. I love the old West movies and this one makes me think about what some of our ancestors may have gone through as they moved across the the land toward their destination. The struggles, hardships and unfortunately the westward wagons and the whites forcing the Native Americans from the land which they loved. If my history classes had movies to watch on the westward migration rather than dry lectures, I would have loved learning out this subject at a very young age. I feel very fortunate to obtain this movie at a reasonable price, and very good condition. I highly recommend this movie.

  • Recommended!

    Wonderful story, great actors, true to history. I especially liked that the movie covered both the indigenous people of the area as well as the hardships of the white pioneers seeking land to raise their families and build their dreams.
