America's Last Little Italy: The Hill

1 hr 10 mins

The Hill in St. Louis, Missouri is an Italian American neighborhood with deep historical roots. In the late 1800s, Italians immigrated to the area to work in the many clay mines. Here they quickly took over the area and began to make it their own, building their own church, starting their own businesses, and creating a self-sufficient "city within a city." Home to baseball royalty, Yogi Berra and Joe Garagiola, The Hill was a hotbed for incredible athletic talent and had multiple players from the 1950 US Soccer Team that defeated England in what is referred to as the biggest upset in World Cup History. This "Little Italy" neighborhood is unique for multiple reasons, but the biggest being for the mere fact that it still exists and is prosperous to this day, mixing residential homes with businesses of all sorts, including its world-famous restaurants. "America's Last Little Italy: The Hill," tells the story of this enduring neighborhood by looking at the past, present, and future.

Gary Cooper: The Face of a Hero

0 hrs 50 mins

Known for his personification of the Western Hero, it was Montana-born Cooper's horse-riding skills that first brought him bit parts in movies. And he never lost his love of the great American outdoors. Though he rarely played a villain and was an adept comedian, Cooper is best remembered for his strong, silent heroes. With his lanky countryboy looks and shy hesitancy he created a unique screen presence, though his real life was one of sophisticated elegance. Over 100 movies brought him three Academy Award Nominations and two Academy Awards. Cooper's most memorable films include A Farewell to Arms, Mr. Deeds Goes To Town, Meet John Doe, The Pride of the Yankees and High Noon. Daughter Maria Cooper Janis and actors George C. Scott, Charlton Heston, Patricia Neal and Joan Leslie are among those appearing in this profile of one of Hollywood's greatest stars.
