- Against the Odds - Walt Whitman VC-5276
- A brief biography of Walt Whitman. Bard of the common man, Whitman sought to express America and his love for her in his poetry. Because American poetry had been an elitist art form and not a popular form of expression, Whitman had to create a whole new poetic language, using ordinary words and everyday speech rhythms, to paint a personal verbal portrait of his country as it changed from an agrarian to a tumultuous industrial society.
- Song of Myself VC- 702
- Walt Whitman, played by Rip Torn, reminisces about his life, from the time he started writing "Leaves of Grass" until he had to return to his family after a paralytic stroke. Experience the sensitive, complex personality and some of the drives which immersed him in our national life.
