Movie Reviews of The War That Made America: The Story of the French and Indian War
Movie Review: Fills the knowledge gaps
Summary: 4 Stars
This dramatisation fills in a lot of the details about a little known war.
I knew that Washington had fought for the British, I'd seen the film " The last of the Mohicans", I'd read of Wolfe's attack on Montreal, but that was it! I didn't know the details in between, or why things happened as they did. This dramatisation explained a lot. I've given 4 stars and not 5 because this is case of "seen one Indian battle, seen them all". It's history, but still rather repetative.
Summary of The War That Made America: The Story of the French and Indian War
What if the French had won? Almost 250 years ago, French and English armies clashed in the primeval forest of western Pennsylvania as they struggled to control the most important piece of real estate in 18th century North America. The army that controlled the forks of the Ohio, a confluence of mighty rivers that would one day become Pittsburgh, held the gateway to the entire continent. Native Americans boldly tried to manipulate the balance of military power between the English and the French. It was the French and Indian War, and an inexperienced Virginian soldier named George Washington, serving under the British flag, learned battle-scarred lessons that would indelibly shape his life.Drama DVD Video
