Movie Reviews of To Kill A King [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: Really a very good film
Summary: 5 Stars

Certainly a longer portrayal of the life and times of Oliver Cromwell is in order, but this is definitely a welcome film about a period that deserves much more attention. The central theme of this film, very well represented, is the conflict in the British people between support for their king and republican ideals, as represented in the conflicted and irresolute actions of General Fairfax, drawn between his wife and his friend Cromwell. The entire film keeps its focus sharply on this conflict. I found it engrossing. One of my direct ancestors, John Craggen (of Scotland), was conscripted into the Royalist army and subsequently captured by Cromwell's forces. He was kept in chains for two years and then sold as a slave and shipped to Massachusetts on the John & Mary. Later, after Royalty was restored in England, some of Cromwell's generals were sheltered from British authorities through safe houses in New England. The ideals of Cromwell's struggle were later realized in the American Revolution ("all men are created equal..."), more than 100 years later, supported by the descendents of both Royalists and Republicans who fled to the New World. The republican ideal is still alive in the United States, and we continue to welcome all peoples of the world to move their own government toward this ideal.
