Title: Beautiful Cinematography/ NOT True to the Books
Review: This DVD does have beautiful cinematography, just as some other reviews have said. The outdoor scenes are very realistic in portraying what the rugged woodlands and prairies of the late 1800's were probably like. However, many reviews have claimed that this miniseries was closer to following the events in Laura Ingalls Wilder's book series than any other television series or movie has ever been, and after watching it we were very disappointed that it does not follow the books more closely at all. If anything there are even more differences than those described in Laura's books. I would not recommend buying this if you are looking for a closer portrayal of the events in the Little House book series. If you enjoy a different presentation for a good family movie, and enjoy the beautiful and realistic scenery, it might be a good choice.
