Member Rating:  
Explore the life and career of America's most beloved war correspondent in this release that combines the words and images of reporter Ernie Pyle with dramatic recreations and interviews to tell the unforgettable tale of the man who brought the front lines home for a nation of news-hungry citizens. Pyle's vivid columns held the entire country riveted, and interviews with former president Gerald R. Ford, as well as such media figures as Andy Rooney and Walter Cronkite, show that the risks Pyle took on the battlefield were not in vain. Few reporters could convey the chaos of war on the written page, and from his coverage of the London bombing in 1940 to his story proclaiming the end of the war in the Pacific in 1945, Ernie Pyle lived to pen some of the most remarkable wartime tales ever published. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    I am very interested in WWII programs & documentaries. I found this to be a very informative & touching biography of a war correspondent who wrote about the war from the common soldier's perspective. Audrey M.

    Being of an age that actually was aliver in the era of WW11, this disk brought back many memories. It is a very good biographical picture of the man and the era. I recommend it to all as history and life in the era and the front lines of any combat zone.

    Great overview of the best war correspondent in history, with side-bar narrations by Walter Cronkite, Gerald Ford, and Andy Rooney. The film focuses a lot on what it means to die face down in the mud like a soldier, so not really for children, but it tells it like it is.
