Vintage TV fans must see: JFK-Breaking The News DVD, co-produced by our own Gary Mack

[Steve Hoffman]

If you are into history or the tragic death of JFK or old TV video in general, you must see this DVD, easily ordered from the on-line store at the Sixth Floor Museum At Dealey Plaza. I think it's only $14.95.

Perhaps you saw it broadcast on PBS, with narration by Jane Pauley. I did and I wanted it on disk. The video quality of those old haunting live broadcasts is amazing. The program draws on first-hand accounts from reporters and photographers, along with original broadcast video, historic amateur film and unforgettable news photographs. In the bonus section there is some interesting stuff and a bunch of elongated interviews including an articulate one with Gary Mack, who is the curator of the museum as well as an SH Forum member..

I truly enjoyed it.

I saw this on PBS also and thought it was excellent.

Thanks for the tip, Steve. Is it all six hours as was broadcast on PBS?
