Best Biography on DVD?
I want to get a biography of Pope JPII on DVD, but I'm kind of cautious on which one to get since some biographies seem to have been made by "liberal" media.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

uhh... i'm a little confused now. I found the only two quotes on amazon about this CBC video... and they say:
"This film, specially the third disc, is dissapointing. I thought it would be something based on true facts, but instead of saying the things as they were, the information is manipulated and combined with opinions of people that are out and against the Catholic Church and there are quite few opinions that come from people that are in favor of the principles and doctrine of the Catholic Church, I really think that this film was made to create confusion within the faithful catholics. Spend your money in something worthy."
AND
"This DVD is a copy of an original program that was shown on CBC television about a year and a half ago. Frankly, the "documentary" was nothing more than a hatchet job. The same old tired players (read dissidents) are trodded out as mouthpieces for those who can't stomach what the Pope has to say. The CBC received a lot of flack from viewers when it showed this program. Even for a liberal media, the slant in this production was shameful. Save yourself some hard earned money and look for something a lot more decent."
Are you sure this was a good documentary???

Re: Best Biography on DVD?
Well, James, I ordered the CBS DVD yesterday and will let you know what I think after I get it. I did a search online and got it for $12 shipped at http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/
I thought about ordering the PBS one, but figure some nice new ones will come out this year.
