NEW! Saturday's Warrior 2000 — The classical musical now has digitally enhanced picture quality, improved sound, "The making of" documentary, bloopers and out-takes. The minute "making of the video" is an inspirational look at the cast and crew 10 years after the Saturday's Warrior video was made and how that experience together has touched their lives over the years. It is funny and fun at times and very tender and spiritual at other times. The bloopers and out-takes are just plain fun.

Still a Timeless, Marvelous Delight

Glen & Ann, CA - October 02, 2010

I have always just loved Saturday's Warrior.
Some have complained that it is a grandiose idea out of the gate ("These are the few, the warriors...these are THEY!"). I think it is a matter of viewpoint: If you are somehow aware enough about how important life is and at the same time how hazardous also, it is not self-congratulatory to see our mortal sojourn at as a battle, with the Enemy playing for keeps. In fact, that is doctrinal fact, not grandiosity.
My only misgiving about this DVD is seeing the father--played otherwise beautifully by Marvin Payne--backhand his son in a scene. I think it just isn't needful to spice a poignant scene using family violence of any kind.
Otherwise, a million thanks to all the marvelous folks who made this video, making it possible for this gem of a play to become a legacy.
