I didn't the last two times (but did when LBJ was around and it was my first
time).
And I SWEAH on a stack of Bibles that I will NEVER do it. NEVER!!
PS-- Happy Fourth to all anyway.

I don't know. I'll go out on a limb, though, and say that I can't remember
a really good film about the American Revolution.
There have been some bad ones. THE PATRIOT was certainly abysmal, a cartoon
if there ever was one. REVOLUTION was pitiful. I think there
may have been some films set in the period which were OK. I liked
JOHNNY TREMAIN as a kid. I have not seen that in years.
Am I missing something?
Here in Texas, (where it's raining like hell on this
fourth) we have at least four or five versions of
THE ALAMO, the war for Texas independence. That's
a neat story, all tied up with a bow. That American
Revolution thing is all dreary, with people cold and starving,
crossing the Delaware River, big whupp, Paul Revere's ride etc etc.
All episodic with no punch. Sounds like a better HBO series than a film.
By the way, the rest of you people in the other 49 states, please --
NEVER vote for anyone from Texas again, will ya?

Two quotes one film tied in with celebrating the revolution...which film?
