FDR, a three-part miniseries, redefines our 32nd president's mythic place in American history by showing the viewer a new side of this supposedly well-known leader. Our Franklin isn't just a president speaking at the podium, but a young man desperate to prove he's got something to offer the world. He's not a black-and white photograph but a cocky Assistant Secretary of the Navy whose reckless behavior threatens his family and his future. Most importantly, he's not a pillar of strength, but a man stricken with polio, who transforms himself by learning how to listen to others. In each episode, we'll show the making of a true American leader by digging into Franklin's intimate crucible events - from the moment he realizes he may never walk again to the early morning of June 6, 1944, when he anxiously awaits word about the Allied invasion on the beaches of Normandy.
