PRODUCT NOTE: Because this video was filmed with a home camcorder, the sound quality is not optimum. Though audible on a standard built-in computer speaker, the spoken narrative tends to be somewhat faint at times. These discs sound best when played with either external speakers or on a good-quality television set.
