Finally began my lesson in Twain a year or so ago, and from all I've yet gleaned I'd say that this is the most solid and accurate portrayal of the man on stage of which there could exist hope to be had. God bless Hal Holbrook, God Bless Sam Clemens.
"All say, 'How hard it is that we have to die', a strange complaint to come from the mouths of those who have had to live."
I was ten years old when this performance was aired by CBS television. It was genius then, it is genius to this day and it's impact on me personally, just as profound.
Many thanks for posting this!

I was fortunate enough to be in the audience during this performance. I cannot describe the power of the experience. Hal Holbrook IS Mark Twain.
