More on "The Patriot"

Posted by Rich on March 02, 2000 at 05:42:54:

The backdrop of "The Last of the Mohicans," the French & Indian War, sowed the seeds for the American Revolution less than 20 years later. That, coupled with the involvement of some MohicanLand residents, makes the forthcoming film, "The Patriot," great fodder for this Site! Starring Mel Gibson, the film is very LOOSELY based on a partisan guerilla leader, Francis Marion, the Swamp Fox (for which the town I reside in was named after ... Marion, NC) ...

Anyway, courtesy of Smoke & Fire, and our resident Vermonter, Donna, comes this little article about the filming.
