Editorial Review:
Product Description:
Mandela & De Klerk was filmed in South Africa. Most of the locations are those where the actual events took place, and the dramatized sequences are augmented with newsreel footage to ensure the most accurate portrayal possible of recent historical events.
Amazon.com:
Sidney Poitier and Michael Caine both received Emmy nominations for their performances in this made-for-TV movie. The plot follows Nelson Mandela's 27-year struggle to end apartheid. That segregation was abolished without bloodshed also had much to do with the political maneuverings of South African President F.W. de Klerk, played with convincing and tired resolution by Caine. Poitier plays the more powerful personality, and shines as the self-assured leader. Filmed in Cape Town, this extremely talky and sometimes static film is intriguing as a historical study. As a drama, it is a bit dry. --Rochelle O'Gorman

WARNING: ABSENSE OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS
"Mandela and De Klerk" does a good job of outlining the official end of apartheid in South Africa. The acting was so-so, and the overall framing of the movie was subpar, but I'm giving the movie 4 stars because there hasn't been much in the cinema on the subject.

"Mandela and de Klerk" is a 1997 made-for-TV docudrama that a history buff shouldn't miss. I didn't even know of this until this month (Could this have been so under the radar or was my rock difficult to climb out of?). The film chronicles the efforts of then South African President Frederik Willem de Klerk to release anti-apartheid activist Nelson Mandela from prison and pave the way for a new constitution and abolishment of apartheid. This is, of course, an extremely simplified synopsis of the ... Read More

I was "blown away" by the emotion and honesty of this movie! I was so moved that I'm now reading Nelson Mandela's autobiography!

I have not figured out, why someone like Spike Lee ,has not done a film about Nelson Mandela yet.He could have cast Morgan Freeman.He was in the excellent short film ,'Death of a Prophet'(1972),about the remaining days of Malcolm X's life.This film ,'Mandela and deKlerk',is above average.But, would have done better if it had stayed true with his autobiographical story,'The Long Walk to Freedom'.I saw the deKlerk role as a filler and the film focusing less on Mandela's political struggle and search for ...
