2. K&R! I've been watching this again, though I saw it before

It really is excellent, extremely well done, and the film footage is just amazing!

3. Same here, I catch something else each time I re-watch it. Great effort by Burns & Co.

4. Absolutely! I'm noticing more this time through, as well.

There is so much there, both in the spoken parts and the incredible pix and video that they managed to obtain, that's it's impossible to absorb everything the first time through - or probably the second or third. I'm also learning so much that I never knew before, and am gaining a new appreciation. I just wish that my grandmother was still around so I could discuss those times with her since she lived through them and was good at remembering details. And the film footage of the president at Warm Springs was just amazing!
