Title: Where's the history of Ford?
Review: If your a car guy and looking for some detail on the history of the Model T's development look elsewhere. I was expecting some time devoted to Ford's other cars before the T, like the model's K, N, R, and S but I saw none of that. To my mind all the joy of this man's career centered around his Model T. In this movie the Model T, which was developed after many months in the experimental room at Ford's factory, basically appears out of thin air. Henry's son Edsel Ford was a real gentleman who did an awful lot for the company but none of that comes through either. He is portrayed childlike when in reality he was a brilliant executive. This is Ford for a TV audience at the usual 8th grade level. All the good stuff is left out and all the sensationalism is left in. Edited severely and in better hands, with the inclusion of the brilliant job that Edsel's son Henry Ford II did, then maybe the Ford's would of had their due. Has any one American family accomplished more?
