A Good Documentary That Needs More Than One Narrator

This well-sourced documentary benefits from the cooperation of the Doolittle family and their willingness to share an exciting archive of photographs documenting the life of Jimmy Doolittle and his role in the evolution of military aviation. The film is narrated by Gardner Doolittle who appears to be a family member with access to a trove of engaging anecdotes and observations. Gardner Doolittle is also the sole narrator, and I think this story suffers from a lack of movement and a variety of voices. Gardner has a voice and a speaking style reminiscent of Tom Brokaw. Toward the end of this 84 minute film, it starts to get a bit wearing.
