CNN’s Cold War was the first major documentary covering the subject and is regarded as the definitive work on the fifty year military and political struggle between the Communist and Western worlds. The documentary garnered a George Foster Peabody Award for Excellence in 1998.

This event marks the DVD release of the twenty-four episode documentary which took three years to make and was compiled from more 10,000 hours of original footage.
