I've seen fragments of this history of New York from Steeplechase Productions off and on since it premiered on PBS in 1999, but until recently I haven't sat down and watched it with the attention it deserves.
The initial seven segments appeared pre-9/11. Some of these I've seen, at least in part (I watched part 3 last night).
Ric Burns--Ken's younger brother--went back into the project after the towers came down and looked at their history. I know I haven't seen that segment, but I want to work my way there chronologically.
Yep, my weekend is planned. First-rate filmmaking.
