Movie Reviews of When the Forest Ran Red (Ultimate Edition)

Movie Review: No title
Summary: 4 Stars

This was definitely more of an educational documentary. Still worth watching and very factual, it covers the French and Indian wars roots. It talks about Fort Necessity and the massacre at Fort DuQuense. I found the PBS documentary "The War the Made America" much more engaging and entertaining. It also covered more ground. Again, this was a good DVD but I would watch the PBS one again before I would watch this one.

Summary of When the Forest Ran Red (Ultimate Edition)

Twenty years before the Revolutionary War, the British, French, and Native American empires fight for control of the American wilderness. Here George Washington begins his military career at the center of a murder mystery, and suffers defeat at Fort Necessity. In response, British General Edward Braddock leads an army to America and marches on the French, leading to a surprise battle that will change American history.

Shot at major battlefields with armies of living historians, When the Forest Ran Red earned six awards, including a MUSE Award from the American Association of Museums and recognition by the American Association of State and Local History. The film continues to air on PBS stations across the country.

When the Forest Ran Red features commentary by the world's top experts, including Fred Anderson (author of Crucible of War), Stephen Brumwell (author of Redcoats and Paths of Glory), Paul Kopperman (author of Braddock at the Monongahela), and R. David Edmunds (author of The Shawnee Prophet).

Remastered in 2007, the Ultimate Edition features the mini-documentary, Making When the Forest Ran Red, the 50-minute video, A Fast and Dangerous Game that deepens the historical presentation, a 20-minute fireside chat with historian Paul Kopperman about Braddock's Defeat, deleted scenes, trailers, and more.
