Rough Riders

The Complete Mini series On Two Discs!

Theodore Roosevelt wanted to create "the wildest bad-cat regiment since the Mongols rode the Steppes." Volunteers from all walks of life formed "Teddy´s Terrors," the 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry Regiment. Polo players and thieves. Rich and poor. Ivy League athletes and leather-tough cowpokes. All had a devotion to duty and unsurpassed riding skills. But fate would force the Rough Riders to fight on foot, not horseback.

"When I was a kid, my heroes were Teddy Roosevelt, George Patton and Hopalong Cassidy," says John Milius (Red Dawn, The Wind and the Lion), who directed and co-wrote this heroic salute to Roosevelt and his fighting Spanish-American War comrades. Tom Berenger (as Roosevelt), Sam Elliot and Gary Busey lead the way in the epic tale of the conflict that shaped the nation´s destiny and a future President´s soul.
