The Extraordinary Life of Amelia Earhart (2010)
*** (out of 4)
This documentary clocks in just over fifty minutes and features a pretty good telling of the Amelia Earhart story. The narration is good as is the written words that being spoken but we basically hear about Earnhart's entire life from the time she was a child to her mysterious disappearance. If you're looking for interviews with historians then you won't find that here but for the most part I found this documentary to be well-done and it was at least entertaining and gives the viewer a lot of information. We hear about the various accomplishments that Earhart managed and of course her tragic death is also discussed. A couple of the various theories around her disappearance are also discussed. What's also nice is that we're shown various newsreels from the time all of this was going on.
