Henry Ford (in Scottish Gaelic, with Eng subtitles)
A two-part documentary.
Henry Ford's car transformed the lives of millions, and redrew the grid of much of the world. His assembly line changed the character of modern industry, and his Five Dollar Day laid the foundation for the creation of the American middle class. A bundle of contradictions, Ford was at once forward and backward looking, innovative and closed-minded, generous and mean-spirited.
The same man who helped to liberate millions from social isolation with his Model T also trapped thousands in a workplace prison where they were forbidden to sit or talk. This incisive biography draws upon a rich archival record and recent scholarship to provide a revealing portrait of a complex, pivotal, and ultimately flawed figure.
Dh' atharraich na càraichean aig Henry Ford, beatha nam milleanan agus cruth an t-saoghail gu bràth. Thug an loidhne cruthachaidh buaidh air gnìomhachas agus thug an "Five Dollar Day" toiseach tòiseachaidh dhan chlas mheadhanach ann an Ameireagaidh. Bha Ford an còmhnaidh a' strì, duine adhartach ach tric a' coimhead air ais, ùr-ghnàthach ach seann-fhasanta, còir ach spìocach aig an aon àm. Chuidich e na milleanan a-mach à aonaranachd leis a' Mhodel T, ach aig an aon àm chruthaich e prìosan anns an àite-obrach aige far an robh e toirmisgte a bhith bruidhinn agus a bhith suidhe. Tha an eachdraidh beatha seo, tro thasglann agus sgoilearachd rannsachaidh, a' sealltainn duine a bha doirbh, cudromach agus aig an ìre mu dheireadh, fear a bha strì le duilgheadasan.
