Executive producer, Susan Werbe.Second in a three--part series in which acclaimed documentary filmmakers present ten pivotal moments in American history and their often unforeseen repercussions. This segment of three documentary films records events at the beginning of the 20th century. The Homestead Strike on July 6, 1892 was the result of harsh working conditions at Carnegie's Homestead steel mill, a battle between management and the labor union. The assassination of President William McKinley at the 1901 World's Fair on Sept. 6, 1901, ushered in a new Progressive Era under Theodore Roosevelt. In July 1925, the trial of John Scopes ("the Monkey Trial") was a courtroom battle between William Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow over the teaching of evolution in a small Tennessee town, and underscored a deep schism within the American psyche: religion versus science, church versus state, elitism versus populism.General.This film is not rated.DVD format. Region 1; Dolby digital stereo.

Down-and-out former professional Ping-Pong phenom Randy Daytona gets sucked into this maelstrom when FBI Agent Rodriguez recruits him for a secret mission. Randy is determined to bounce back and recapture his former glory, all in an effort to smoke out his father's killer. The killer happens to be one of the FBI's Most Wanted, Feng. Two decades out of the game, Randy can't turn his life around and avenge his father's murder without a team of his own. He calls upon the spiritual guidance of blind Ping-Pong Master Wong, and the training expertise of Wong's very sexy niece Maggie, both of whom also have a dark history with Feng. The most unique Ping-Pong tournaments ever staged take place at Feng's mysterious jungle compound. There, Randy faces formidable players, such as his long-ago Olympics opponent, the still-vicious Karl Wolfschtagg.MPAA rating: PG-13; for crude and sex-related humor, and language.DVD; region 1; anamorphic widescreen (1.85:1) presentation; DVD-5, single-sided.
