This was a very good movie. It gave us a chance to see behind the scenes of policy making in World War II even if there was a little dramatic license taken. I recommend this movie highly to anyone interested in this time period in history

Remarkable, seen from an entirely different aspect of most war movies

The make up artists deserve all the praise they can get, but this series, while it has taken some historical liberties, is absolutely fabulous, and timeless. It breaks my heart to not see this series available on DVD. It truly deserves to be produced. I was fresh out of high school when this series hit TV, and I was awe inspired by it. The actual words spoken by FDR, Churchill, and Stalin are used, with a minimal amount of creative fluff to add a bit of frosting to a cake thatis already rich with historical facts, which are creatively put together to bring the viewer back to the time.
I must beg to differ on a few key points, though. I do not believe for a moment that FDR said, "I wanted my administration to end without war." America was preparing for it, and it was an inevitability. The belligerents, and co-belligerents were getting overwhelmingly callous, and ruthless, and had to be checked. FDR knew this, and I find a few scenes utterly unhistoric, and quotes taken out-of-context. Things Churhill said in the house of commons weren't mumbled in blackened dark rooms alone. Nonetheless, the story as it unfolded, the soundtrack, and the delightful acting makes it a gem that would occupy a spot on my shelf the day it comes out if it were released on DVD.

This movie is quite literally my all time favorite movie. I saw it originally air on NBC way back when I was in 10th grade and I was awestruck by it. The acting alone blows me away and since I have become an actor and director in my own life, I look to this movie quite frequently for inspiration. The fact that a three hour movie where only five people even speak and every line of dialogue is historical accuracy can so captively hold an audience's attention alone speaks for its greatness. That being said, I can understand that this movie wouldn't be for everyone. In this age of dumbed-down, attention-deprived American culture, I doubt most people would be interested in this movie for more than 5 minutes. But, those who enjoy history or just fine acting, this movie speaks volumes. I actually intend to adapt this as a stage-play in the future. I can only hope that someday it get's released on DVD.

I am a Professor of US History and I teach classes that specialize in the first 50 yrs of the 20th century ( 1900-1950 ). This is an outstanding Docu-drama about the Allied Leadership an d the personal relationships between the Big 3 during WW2. It is both informative and entertaining. It accurately conveys the political and personal complexities involved. Even teenagers who watch this afterwards say " WOW ". A must see film along with Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan.
