After the War DVD Movie
After the War Description: ""The first time I saw Joe Hirsch, it was as though he'd come to find me." So thinks young Michael Jordan when a refugee student from Nazi-occupied Europe arrives at St. George's school in England, 1942. Featuring Susannah York, this sweeping Masterpiece Theatre series - filmed on location in Paris, Israel and Kenya – traces a complex friendship under fire during the tumultuous post-war years.Young Michael and Joe share little in common. Michael is from a prosperous, middle-class English family, while Joe has known only fear and isolation in Europe. Eventually, their shared Jewish heritage creates a bond between them, one that will be tested over time, from vicious schoolyard gang rivalries to the highest levels of the entertainment world. Between 1942 and 1967, their paths cross repeatedly as Michael becomes a successful writer and director and Joe, a powerful media mogul. They are "friendly enemies" - respectful, cordial, never fully trusting of the other, yet bound by those wartime years. As the frenzied winds of a changing world whip around them, their rivalry begins to take on a dangerous tone - especially when the love of one woman becomes the prize. How far will one man go to win her? To what desperate lengths will the other go to stop him?"
