Historically Inaccurate Tripe

Rating: Null/10 (7 July 2002)

This movie makes anyone who's ever opened a history book wince in pain. If this was your only source of American history, it would have you believe that after a spectacular battle at what I assume was "William Wallace Hill" or something like that (seeing as how nothing like it ever happened), the noble American army pushed back the barbarian horde that was the British forces. This in turn led to Cornwallis falling on his sword in shame and, subsequently, all the slaves were freed (ALL of them).
Before watching this movie, keep some things in mind:
1. George Washington was a MAJOR CAUSE of the French and Indian War.
2. Little to no slaves were emancipated as a result of the revolution and those that were, returned to ENGLAND with the British forces.
3. The British army strictly adhered to the Rules of War; the American army resorted to guerilla tactics such as burning towns and attacking at night (and even on Christmas, a traditional day of cease-fire).
4. And, by the way, Americans back then probably still had British accents.
