Originally produced as an episode of the television program "The American Experience" in 2010.
"The words spoken by the actors in this program are based on the actual writings of Dolley Madison and her contemporaries"--Opening credits.
Eve Best (Dolley Madison), Jefferson Mays (James Madison), narrated by David Ogden Stiers.
"Dolley Madison lived through two wars, knew the first twelve Presidents, and watched America evolve from a struggling young republic to the first modern democracy in the world. At a time when women could neither vote nor participate officially in politics, Dolley Madison, wife of the fourth president James Madison, became one of the most influential and best loved figures of her day. When she died in 1849 at the age of 81-- one of the last remaining members of the founding generation--Washington City honored her with the largest state funeral the capital had ever seen." -- Container.
DVD, 5.1 surround, region 1, NTSC.
