This program is a bit slow. There is interesting vintage footage (B/W home movies) of folks (Hearst and 'stars') at the 'ranch'. Nicely framed shots (interior and exterior) of art and architecture. It's more informative than narrative (the IMAX Building a Dream movie also avail. on dvd is more narrative). This is a good broad swath, nothing too detailed, but nice general info. I say it's better than 'average', but maybe not up to 'good'. Worth $10 (price & ship), I'd wait for that price rather than pay more.
I have been to Hearst Castle many times and never get tired of looking at the majestic features. This video is a great way to remember the castle and it shows clips from the days when Mr Hearst had his life there. It is a great way to take a tour and never leave your home.
Excellent dilivery time. Purchased for Monther's Day as background info for actual trip to San Simeon at a time mom's health allows. Format was a bit dry. Would've been nice to see more video of the inside & grounds for those who can't make the trip, as opposed to a video of still shots.
