this is not a narrated documentary series. this is a dvd that tells of the movies that these actors appeared in. does not tell about the actor of about the actor's life or career, just tells of the movies they were in. this was terrible, I wanted to hear about the actors, gossup, life trials and tribulations, anything that would help me to know them. this was a dissapointment.

I'm assuming this audiobook is the soundtrack to a video. It's basically a little bit of narration around a number of clips from their movies. Not a lot of information here.
