Forest Lawn - New Historical DVD

by SteveTuesday, February 14, 2006

Forest Lawn is celebrating 100 years of service through art, music and landscape with the debut of a new historical DVD that chronicles the history of Forest Lawn in the context of local events, cultural shifts, politics, and business.

The DVD, "Forest Lawn, The First Hundred Years," is a 36-minute film that tells the transformation of desolate land becoming the beautiful environment we know today as Forest Lawn.

The film describes how Forest Lawn became the best-known Memorial-Park in the world by combining innovative business ideas, art, and architecture to create some of the most beautiful memorial vistas in the world. The DVD allows watchers to experience countless treasures of stained glass, marble statuary, breathtaking churches, and inspired landscapes, and witness the rescuing of Leonardo Da Vinci's "The Last Supper." With this film, viewers can see the evolution of Forest Lawn through its trials and tribulations from a traditional cemetery into what is now known as the Memorial-Parks.

The DVD, priced at $14.95, will be available February 20th at the Forest Lawn Museum stores.

What makes us Different?

Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
