I used to watch the North & South series back in the 80's on TV. I still can't believe I have the DVD's now. I love the actors, the costumes, the story. Just awesome!
Have been hunting for it where i can afford it for several years to see who won the war lol but it was so far excellent and no problems only part way through it though
very good ebayer was really happy with movies fast shipping priced right was buying for someone else who has never used ebay before but is pretty well hooked on it now thank you
I absolutely LOVE this collection of movies! North and South, is one of the very BEST EVER made! I LOVE the time period it was made in. The costumes, the actors! The whole time period of this movie, the civil war, is perhaps a time in history, that is still as alive today as then! The MEMORIES of it all, its untouchable! Never has there been a movie made since, that can touch the reality and feel of that whole era! This is a MUST SEE MOVIE! You will never forget the experience!
The disc set is in good condition, plays well and is compact. The movie set uses both sides ov the DVD's so it takes up half the room a normal set would. Packaging is excelent and sturdy, not flimsy like many others. A collectors series both useable and built to last.
I absolutely love this movie!! I owned it on VHS but it looks alot better on Dvd and takes up so less room. I wanted to watch it again and this time on DVD. Excellent choice!!
What can I say about exceptional acting, directing and presentation. The story is of two families, one from Pennsylvania, and the other from the deep south, around the Carolinas, and how they became loyal friends because one son from each family attended West Point prior to the War Between the States. They stuck together, and at times fought against each other, but their loyalty to each other won the battle. It's an adventure, a romance, a historical encounter of our country and all on 4 disks. To miss this one is to miss one of the greats. I have this movie on VHS and DVD. Exceptional.
I am a historian, so I love anything that deals with the past. I am particuliarly fond on the Civil War Era. This story deals with the hardships and triumphs that the Hazzard's and Main's have to deal with. It starts in 1841 when a southern man meets a northern man on the way to West Point Military Accademy. They become life long friends even thou they do not agree on some issues that are current in that time period. The series takes you from the beginning of the Mexican War to the end of the Civil War. It spans 20+ years. Along the way they encounter a deadly enemy. Time and time again they are put to the test of honor, chivalry, and common dignity. They risks their lives for each other and show that they are true friends. It is a saga that includes an all star cast: Phillip Cassanove, Elizabeth Taylor, Johnny Cash, Genie Frances, Jonathan Franks, Jean Simmons, Kirstie Alley, James Read, Patrick Swayze, just to name a few. It is worth watching and it will give you a glimps into that time frame.
It is rated PG because of the sexual content. Not recommended for children under 13. I can sit and watch all 15 episode and not sleep just to see this movie over and over. That is 30 hours of viewing pleasure.
