The movies are short (55 minutes) and not animated (both seem to be key to making the context of history come alive for my older elementary and high school students!) These educational films bring the world's most famous figures to life in historically beautiful locations.

We own most of the Artist Series:
- "Mary Cassatt: American Impressionist"
- "Degas & The Dancer"

- "Winslow Homer: American Original"

- "Rembrandt: Father & Sons"

- "Goya: Awakened in a Dream"

- "Monet: Shadow & Light"

and The Inventor's Series:

- "Edison: The Wizard of Light"

- "Leonardo: A Dream of Flight"

- "Galileo: On the Shoulders of Giants"

- "Einstein: Light to the Power of 2"

- "Newton: A Tale of Two Isaacs"

- "Marie Curie: More than Meets the Eye"

Now I want to start acquiring the Composer's Series:

- "Strauss: The King of 3/4 Time"

- "Rossini's Ghost"

- "Liszt's Rhapsody"

- "Bizet's Dream"

- "Handel's Last Chance"

- "Bach's Fight for Freedom"
(Just think!) IN DEVELOPMENT:
The Writer's Series:

- Alexandre Dumas "Three Musketeers"
- Mark Twain "Huckleberry Finn" 

- Molière "The Misanthrope"

- Cervantes "Don Quixote"

- Edgar Allan Poe "The Tell-Tale Heart"

- Lewis Carroll "Alice in Wonderland" 

*spoiler* = I can't seem to get any on NetFlix, but a few are at my library. I'll be pushing for both to acquire more copies! (Often I have found them cheaply on auction sites.)
