By Carmen on January 30, 2016
The Winds of War and the sequel series War and Remembrance are excellent. I'm grateful they taught me so many things I didn't know about World War II. I found the action scenes very realistic and well made, without too much violence. Robert Mitchum for the first time shows here that he really could act and show emotions in his face and it's great that Ali MacGraw was replaced by a better actress namely Jane Seymour in War and Remembrance. These 2 miniseries are excellent. Carmen
