Hearst Castle - Building The Dream

DVDfan from , 14th June, 2009

I rented this fully aware that this is a promotional DVD for visitors to the Hearst Castle, and that is what it is. Or if it isn't, then that's what it should be! However, the few interesting facts that are given in this short film have now whetted my appetite for a more expansive documentary on the buildings and the people involved. I just can't seem to track one down. An idea for a budding maker of historical documentaries out there!
