Leslie Nielson starred in the short lived tv series The Swamp Fox which is based on the real life exploits of General Francis Marion. Marion is the inspiration behind Mels character in this movie.
Nielson also was in the original version of Ransom which Mel remade.
Nielson was in the 1986 movie The Patriot which has nothing to do with the revolution.
I think I am stumbling onto one of those Kennedy/Lincoln things!
No really, the movie is a good tale, the action is good, but it reminded me of when Tom Cruise made Top Car, errr, I mean Days of Thunder. Just a costume change away from Braveheart.
