Me too!
He was fantastic - my dad was lucky enough to see him on the stage performing as 'Henry the Fifth' - and well, he said he was amazing!

Hawkeye Joe if this is the part you mean about spelling and typing, I see what you mean I must have been drunk when I wrote this because it should say:

I think anyway!

Hello,
Where are the Native Americans in the film? (They had hired Native reenactors)
It is the the assumtion of many that native reenactors are absent of native blood. This is not true, the majority of native reenactors that I know have blood in them, including myself. It bothers me when it is assumed that because one is "reenacting" a native, he couldn't possible have any native blood in him/her. I dont mean to come of harshly, but it is the way i feel. Sincerely Wlogwihlas.
p.s. other than that, i agree, lotm is much better, they should have hired Mann. |

Another thought from the UK..I enjoyed The Patriot as much as I enjoyed Braveheart..fine as long as you turn off all historical criticism(and I'm the man whose wife tells him to shut up in cinemas when a minute fault in uniform appears...) |

The Patriot: "Braveheart" meets "Glory" meets "The Swamp Fox." Did I miss anything? |

As far as the first post on The Patriot, most of the criticism is well-founded, but I think the general is being a little too nice to Tarleton, who with his Tory Legion butchered Continental soldiers who were attempting to surrender at the Waxhaus (spelling may be incorrect), which is documented by a surgeon. |
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." --President Ronald Reagan (1911-2004)
