Ken Burns: Thomas Jefferson (2pc) [VHS]

Description

Revered as the author of the Declaration of Independence yet condemned as a slave owner, Thomas Jefferson has entered a new era of controversy. This penetrating biography first portrays the young Jefferson from the Virginia wilderness, transformed by the philosophic fire of the American Revolution. Torn between his career and family life at Monticello, he suffers heartrending personal loss even as he pens a new concept in democratic government. Follow Jefferson's rising star as he becomes U.S. Minister to France, enters national politics, fulfills his destiny as President and begins his busy retirement years.

The complicated life of Thomas Jefferson is the subject of this excellent documentary by noted filmmaker Ken Burns. Using techniques that will seem comfortably familiar to viewers of other films by Burns, historians and writers (including Joseph Ellis, Daniel Boorstin, Garry Wills, and Gore Vidal) appear on camera to speak about Jefferson, a cast of actors read the words of Jefferson and others. The visuals include beautifully photographed shots of Jefferson's famed estate, Monticello, other locations where Jefferson lived and worked, and a vast number of period drawings and paintings. Jefferson, who was born into a prosperous Virginia family but lost his father when he was young, became a skilled lawyer despite his natural shyness. And the story of how he became a public figure and rose to prominence during the American Revolution is told intelligently. Commentators, including the noted African American historian John Hope Franklin, grapple with the peculiar inconsistencies of Jefferson's life. The man who wrote the Declaration of Independence owned slaves, and some of what he wrote about race is both troubling and puzzling. This film (which covers Jefferson's entire life, including his two terms as the young country's president and his later years in Virginia) doesn't sidestep controversy but provides a balanced account of one of the most fascinating of all Americans. --Robert J.

Summary: "A Fine and Relevant Biography"

Although this documentary is now over 10 years old, it retains its relevance and significance in 2010, especially with the Texas Board of Education and other political conservatives trying to push Thomas Jefferson out of the U.S. History teaching curriculum. This is a quintessential Ken Burns documentary, with great shots of Monticello, a good overview of Jefferson's contradictions from his politics to his status as a Virginia slave owner, and excellent commentary by prominent historians. I will watch it many times again and likely use it in my classroom to share Jefferson's ideas and life with my eighth grade students.

Summary: "Thomas Jefferson"

I found that this DVD gave a good perceive of "Thomas Jefferson", but had to watching "John Adams" to get the total picture of who Thomas Jefferson was and how he thought.
