This special examines the theories outlined by Gavin Menzies in his best-selling book. An amateur historian and former submarine commander in the British Navy, Menzies poses an argument that could change the way we perceive global history forever -- that Chinese admirals discovered America and Chinese junks first circled the earth. Traveling across the continent, the film combines history, science and technology with adventure and exploration.

e would also like to have a wrtten text discription to be placed in heading portion of page:
'This documentary does an excellent job of connecting the dots about 9/11 and the possible political blueprint and financial reasons leading to that momentous event-- detailed and chilling.' ED ASNER World Renown 9/11/01 researchers Jim Hoffman, Don Paul (See 2002-2005 reviews below) offer conclusive evidence that the Twin Towers and World Trade Center Building 7 were subject to controlled demolitions, who profited from these indubitable demolitions, and why.
'The video is a great effort to get to the heart of the challenges we all face.
In Part One of "9/11 Guilt: The Proof is in Your Hands", Jim Hoffman systematically dismantles the excuses given by the government for collapse of three World Trade Center buildings. Then he clearly proves that these buildings fell due to controlled demolition.
In Part Two, Don Paul convincingly reveals a cohesive argument for 9/11 fraud. He makes it difficult to go away from this video without knowing that 9/11 was a planned pretext for a corrupt agenda. Do we have probable cause to indict the individuals named? Without a doubt.' KEVIN RYAN, former Site Manager for Environmental Health Laboratories

The silent epic and international cinema legend Abel Gance is most celebrated for his sweeping and pioneering biography masterpiece Napoleon. But this touching and tortured document of the legendary Beethoven's creative genius deserves equal tribute and attention. Like Napoleon, Beethoven is Gance's portrait of a great mind, a giant of history, here crafted as a romantic vision of the artist. The film chronicles the years of Beethoven's greatest successes and his struggles against overwhelming adversity--poverty, the onset of deafness and his unrequited passion for his "Immortal Beloved." Writer/director Gance conducts a symphony of images set to an expressionistic score, depicting not only the events but the spirit of the composer's life. 117 minutes.
