National Geographic: Lewis and Clark: Great Journey West (2002)

Robo reviews: National Geographic: Lewis and Clark: Great Journey West is one of my top ten documentaries of all time. Not a second is wasted in this production as it paints a historical and visual story and shows us the utter expanse of every panoramic view and horizon in Lewis and Clark's monumental journey across western America. Lewis and Clark's exemplary courage and friendship (with the assistance of Sacagawea) ultimately bear success for the expedition (with the loss of only one member) during its 16-month sojourn west to the Pacific and 6-month return east. I've seen this show three times (IMAX, DVD, instant streaming) and I'll gladly watch it again. 5 stars. (8-7-15)
