Korean War Stories (Robert Uth, PBS) presents a unique combination of interesting interview pieces with amazing film footage, offering the viewer the rare opportunity to see into the characters that have saved us from more struggle throughout the last 50 years (this is 2005). One of the most poignant collections of interviews is that which details Brad Smith's efforts to defend the Army's position in the early, heartbreaking months of the War; how our under protected, underequipped soldiers woke up to a wall of Chinese, Russian, and North Koreans bearing heavy tanks down on Americans with nothing but unsophisticated rocket launchers to defend themselves. The producer, Robert Uth, seems to have found the perfect blending of true history and testimony, with documentary footage and imagery. The original music (other than the Willie Nelson performance) is exceptionally moving and draws the viewer into the experience even more. Korean War Stories is a magnificent production I thoroughly recommend.
