About this product

Product Information

Hollywood's most celebrated luminaries--behind the camera as well as in front of it--combined talents to present this epic tale of the development of the American West from the 1830s through the Civil War to the end of the century, as seen through the eyes of one pioneer family. The film, divided into three chapters--"The Civil War" (directed by John Ford), "The Railroad" (directed by George Marshall), and "The River, the Plains, the Outlaws" (directed by Henry Hathaway)--tells the story of the Prescotts, a spirited group of easterners who make a declaration to migrate west. When their parents are lost in a tragic river accident, Eve (Carroll Baker) and Lilith (Debbie Reynolds) go their separate ways. Eve remains on the land that took her parents, settling down with the well-intentioned Linus Rawlings (James Stewart), while Lilith becomes a singer who is courted by the conniving Cleve Van Valen (Gregory Peck) when he learns that she has inherited a fortune in California. As time passes and the Civil War takes the life of Linus, the newest generation of Prescott offspring struggles with even greater danger and loss, in the form of fierce Indians as well as family archrivals. Top-notch production values and an endless string of solid performances have earned HOW THE WEST WAS WON the well-deserved label as one of Hollywood's most revered classics.

    ReMaster Production Problems-Affects Special Edition's

    Great in the theaters; original Cine-A-Rama was great ! All Star Cast was wonderful ! Special Collectors Edition did not make the grade. I purchased 2 : 1) Collector's 2) Ultimate Collector's... Both have the same problem...Disk 1 plays beautifully Disk 2 is where the problem comes in; Part of the movie part 2 goes black, other parts freeze, hangs and jumps missing half of the second half of the movie. I do not recommend either of these versions of the movie. I have now purchased the single disk version in the 1998 release and after it's arrival will review and write a review to report the value and quality. Hope this helps any one interested in owning or seeing this wonderful movie of Historical value as well as lovers of westerns. Great family viewing...

  • How the West Was Won

    Many years ago my high school band performed the theme song from How the West Was Won and I had never read the book or seen the movie, but loved the music. Though E-Bay, I was able to purchase the book with the same title. Naturally, upon completion of the book, we were interested to see the movie. The famous actors and actresses were well chosen for their parts. Unfortunately, the movie was probably produced in a hurried mode. The explanation was at the beginning of the DVD set. It seems there was great competition when it was filmed to be the first to bring a format of film and projection that had, until that time, been used only by the military, to the big screen. I am certain the result was awesome for those who watched it for the first time. In our era, so many advances have been ...

  • How the West Was Won #1 Review

    Filmed in panoramic Cinerama, this star-studded, epic Western adventure is a true cinematic classic. Three legendary directors (Henry Hathaway, John Ford, and George Marshall) combine their skills to tell the story of three families and their travels from the Erie Canal to California between 1839 and 1889. Spencer Tracy narrates the film, which cost an estimated 15 million dollars to complete. In the first segment, "The Rivers," pioneer Zebulon Prescott (Karl Malden) sets out to settle in the West with his wife (Agnes Moorehead) and their four children. Along with other settlers and river pirates, they run into mountain man Linus Rawlings (James Stewart), who sells animal hides. The Prescotts try to raft down the Ohio River in a raft, but only daughters Lilith (Debbie Reynolds) and Eve ...

  • How the west was won DVD set.

    The picture was clear, but very small do to the space they used for sub-titles and you have to turn them off each time you play the disk.
