Theodore Roosevelt wanted to create "the wildest bad-cat regiment since the Mongols rode the Steppes." Volunteers from all walks of life formed "Teddy's Terrors," the qst U.S. Volunteer Cavalry Regiment. Polo players and thieves. Rich and poor. Ivy League athletes and leather-tough cowpokes. All had a devotion to duty and unsurpassed riding skills. But fate would force th eRough Riders to fight on foot, not horseback. "When I was a kid, my heroes were Teddy Roosevelt, George Patton and Hopalong Cassidy,: says John Milius (Red Dawn, The Wind the Lion:, who directed and co-wrote this heroic salute to Roosevelt and his fighting Spanish-American War comrades.

This incredible true story follows the enigmatic Oskar Schindler (Liam Neeson), who saved the lives of more than 1,100 Jews during the Holocaust. It is the triumph of one man who made a difference and the drama of those who survived one of the darkest chapters in human history because of what he did. Meticulously restored from the original film negative in pristine high definition and supervised by Steven Spielberg, Schindler's List is a powerful story whose lessons of courage and faith continue to inspire generations.
