Danielle Steel's: Family Album Parts 1 & 2 [DVD]

Movie / Show Details

Danielle Steel’s Family Album is a 1994 made-for-TV drama miniseries directed by Jack Bender and based on Steel’s novel, written by Steel and Karol Ann Hoeffner. The story follows Faye, a celebrated actress and filmmaker, and her husband Ward as they navigate decades of marriage marked by financial hardship, infidelity, and reconciliation. Their relationship is tested further by the challenges of raising four rebellious children during turbulent times, including the Vietnam War era and the social upheaval of the 1970s. The ensemble cast includes Jaclyn Smith, Michael Ontkean, Brian Krause, Kristin Minter, Joe Flanigan, and Leslie Horan.

This is a single-disc DVD presentation of both parts, with a combined runtime of three hours and twenty minutes and a TV-PG rating from NBC. The miniseries spans the family’s journey from Faye and Ward’s early romance through their children’s coming-of-age experiences, concluding with a poignant family gathering.
