Mark Twain

Nearly three years in the making and drawing from 63 hours of material, thousands of archival photographs and nearly 20 interviews with top writers and Twain scholars, "Mark Twain" is the story of an extraordinary life - one full of rollicking adventure, stupendous success and crushing defeat, hilarious comedy and unbearable tragedy. Told primarily through the words of Twain himself and narrated by Keith David, viewers of all ages will be personally introduced to this compelling yet contradictory genius. Another masterpiece from acclaimed documentarian Ken Burns ("Jazz", "The Civil War").
