Jimmy Carter: Hostage
“Hostage,” the conclusion of a two-part Jimmy Carter biography, covers his presidency and post-presidency., The second part of Jimmy Carter concentrates on the 39th president’s last three years in office and his post-presidential accomplishments. By the time Carter entered the second year of his presidency, his administration had already bogged down in legislative battles and economic difficulties. Carter nonetheless persevered, signing the Panama Canal Treaty and arranging for a peace accord between Israel and Egypt at Camp David in 1978. These accomplishments, however, seemed to mean little once American hostages were taken at the U.S. Embassy in Iran at the end of 1979. The hostages would remain in captivity for 444 days and remain unreleased until Ronald Reagan became president in 1981. Carter returned to the public spotlight in 1984 when he began working with Habitat for Humanity. In 1986, groundwork began on the Carter Center, a facility designed to arrange peaceful solutions to world conflicts. In 2002 Carter became the first president to visit Cuba in over 40 years and he also received the Nobel Peace Prize. Jimmy Carter is a well-balanced portrait that includes rare film footage and a number of interviews with colleagues and historians., “Hostage,” the conclusion of a two-part Jimmy Carter biography, covers his presidency and post-presidency. Human rights were to be “a basic tenet of our foreign policy,” Carter declared in 1977, but he was overwhelmed by events in Iran, and economic woes at home led to a “malaise” so severe that the 1978 Camp David accords didn’t even give him a boost in the polls. Then came the hostage crisis. But back in Plains, he and Rosalynn regrouped. And now? As former Carter speechwriter Henrdrik Hertzberg puts it: “His values, his devotion to human rights, keep on resonating in a way that his failures and weaknesses don’t.” Linda Hunt narrates.
