Movie Reviews of Benedict Arnold - A Question of Honor
Movie Review: A&E needs to wake up!
Summary: 1 Stars
Again, an eagerly anticipated evening's enjoyment watching an excellent movie about an important part of America's history, is thwarted because of no sub-titles. The product details mention "closed-captioned", but I need sub-titles. A&E has lost another sale. I bet I'm not the only person who needs subtitles!
Summary of Benedict Arnold - A Question of Honor
The most sullied figure of the American Revolution receives partial redemption in Benedict Arnold: A Question of Honor. Produced for the A&E network, this factual drama reveals the lesser-known circumstances of Arnold's dishonor, beginning in 1777 and chronicling his fall from greatness. The conquering hero of Saratoga and other victories of the Revolution finds himself in an impossible predicament, his allegiance torn between his British loyalist wife (Jane Brennan) and his paternally devoted commander, George Washington (Kelsey Grammer), as his Colonial detractors cast him into a tragic no-win scenario. Authentically detailed and blessed by playwright William Mastrosimone's poetic period dialogue, Benedict Arnold successfully explores the personal and political facets of a great soldier's downfall. Aidan Quinn's expressive melancholy perfectly suits his title role, and Grammer transcends Frasier, lending appropriate gravitas--and some physical resemblance--to his portrayal of America's future president. Like A&E's earlier film The Crossing, this is compelling historical drama, entertaining, intelligent, and emotionally complex. --Jeff ShannonDrama DVD Video
