If you've never seen the John Adams mini series

I highly recommend it , I've seen it it a couple times now

I often comment , that there are like thousands of movies about WWII , hundreds about the Civil war and WWI , but when it comes to the Revolutionary War , those movies are pretty sparse , other then The Patriot with Mel Gibson , most people would have a hard time naming a second

although John Adams isn't exactly a war movie , it is about the Revolution
