Secrets of Selfridges

He was an amazing man with an amazing vision
This biography was very informative concerning who Mr. Selfridge actually was and what brought him down. He was an amazing man with an amazing vision, but he has his weaknesses. This is a must see for anyone watching the hit series Mr. Selfridge! I cannot wait for the final Season 4 to come out! The way Season 3 ended and what I have read about Season 4, watching this biography will help bring everything into perspective. Excellent buy to add to your DVD library and a must see!

A great history of the Selfridges store and also of the man, Mr. Selfridge. I enjoyed knowing more about the person who founded the great department store. Really made me want to see it in person, which can never be. Six floor....amazing and way to big for me to walk around at my age. Also in the wrong country, as I live in the USA. Well worth the price. In facat, I am giving a copy for Christmas to someone who enjoys the Masterpiece movie: Mr. Selfridge

Interesting History of Selfridges Department Store
We enjoyed this version of the famous Selfridges after watching both seasons of 'Mr. Selfridge'. Many historical pictures of the interior and spectacular exterior were included and details of the buildings design were revealed. A step back in time to when the idea of shopping for 'pleasure' and the ability to 'browse' merchandise before purchase were developed by Harry Selfridge. Some photos of the real Harry Selfridge were included and his personal life was touched on but this production barely mentioned his wife and family and personal details of their lives as well. It was mainly a look at the past and present store and how shopping has been changed by Harry Selfridge's innovative ideas. If you want more biographical information about the man and his family you will have to read the book, I guess!

HISTORY & SHOPPING = FUN!
Very interesting biography and insight into one of the first customer focused grand department stores. The imagery is spectacular, showing scenes of early and current Selfridges. Good mix of expert interviews, but not so much that they dominate this documentary. It really is like an insider’s behind the scenes tour. Beautiful photography and editing.

Good companion to the DVD series Mr. Selfridge
I bought this DVD as a companion to watching the series. It's kind of basic in its information but I enjoyed it especially because of the DVD series that I'm watching thru rentals. It provides some additional historical information, as well as footage of the store in present times ... which is pretty impressive.

Great but Too Short
This documentary is well done with a balanced view of the founder, H G Selfridge, who could be greatly praised or greatly criticized. The documentary sticks to the facts regarding the store itself, with its founder being just a part of the story, not the main issue.
