A&E Network, 1995. 50 mins. (A&E Home Video, P.O. Box 2284, South
Burlington, VT 05407)

Part of the popular A&E Biography Series, this film is a simple narrative of the life of Jimmy Carter, the thirty-ninth president of the United States. It is anecdotal, factual, and apologetic. The producers' excellent choice of film clips and photographs, the majority of them from the huge collection in the Jimmy Carter Library safely kept by video archivist David Stanhope, keep the story moving at a rapid pace and touch every major episode in the subject's life. Carter's childhood, education, marriage, navy career, governorship, presidency, and postpresidency unfold in brief encyclopedic fashion with the aid of twelve on-camera narrators. |
