Originally broadcast on television as part of the television series the American experience.
Henry Ford paints a fascinating portrait of a farm boy who rose from obscurity to become the most influential American innovator of the 20th century. Ford's Model T automobile and his five-dollar-a-day wage ushered in the modern world, earning Ford reverence from millions of Americans. Yet many of the changes he wrought deeply troubled the car maker. In frustration, he lashed out at enemies, real and imagined.
DVD, region 1, widescreen; 5.1 Surround.
