This film is bearable for two reasons; one, because George Sanders, one of my screen icons, is in it. It is impossible for him to make a bad film. The second reason is because the film taught me something I diddnt know before; that the American Revolution actually began in Pennsylvania, not Massachusetts. The Black Boys predated the Revolutionary War by 15 years. And while they did not engage in full scale rebellion, they sure let the British know who was in charge in Pennsylvania. A fun film to watch to learn about the French and Indian War, which I mistakenly thought was a war between the French and American Indians. Our nun, Sister Aloysius hated Protestants, and the English were Protestant, so she sided with the Catholic French when teaching us that period of history. You can easily see why I got this period so messed up. Enjoy the film.
