A good quick overview of Pope John Paul II 5 out of 5 stars.
12 of 13 people found this review helpful.
This video is a great overview of the pope's life. The drawback is that it is 57 minutes long. This is a great supplement to Weigel's Witness to Hope.
There is some great footage of Pope John Paul II that is unique to this video. There is a great scene in NY in the rain where the pontiff calls on America to defend the most vulnerable - the unborn and the old. In another scene from Brazil, the Pope gave away his gold cardinal's ring to be sold to assist the needy that he encountered in a Ghetto.
It is a great addition to any collection.
Topics covered include:
His early years
His election
His trips to the US & World
The Poor
CBS' 48 hrs special assignment in the Vatican
Communism
Youth
This short video is perfect for someone who wants a meaningful, objective, and abbreviated look at one of the most fascinating leaders of the 20th century.

Editorial Review:
CBS NEWS Productions - In this three-part series, we'll follow the real life experience of nurses at Massachusetts General Hospital. Each episode examines the challenges nurses face every day in their high pressure, life-impacting work. For example, a team of three nurses, Lindsay Coull, Jackie Baty, and Jennifer Connors, care for a heart attack survivor who faces the tragic experience of having his leg amputated. The patient, Doug Phelps, keeps the nurses busy as his need for care increases with the spread of a vicious infection. The nurses must not only medically attend to Doug, but they must emotionally support him through his struggles.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.

Editorial Review:
CBS NEWS Productions - Hurricane Andrew swept through southern Florida and coastal Louisiana in August of 1992, leaving a quarter-million people homeless and causing $30 billion in damages. Whole neighborhoods were destroyed. People clamored for help and food, some even stole what little remained. Eventually the military was called in to restore order. Still, even years later, as we'll describe, Andrew's destruction is still visible. Thousands of homeowners were cheated by contractors, and some, to this day, are still trying to re-build.
