it looks like some of the old paintings G Gabriel oh wow wow nothing ever happens to you medicate the  queen of [ __ ] and hail the passing of King   George my name is Peter Howard I lost most of  my hearing and my left leg fighting for the   crown in the French and Indian War wowe and  how did King George reward me he cuts off my   other leg with his taxes yeah Miss Howard isn't  you know who I am Gabriel Martin let's not play   the last time you saw me I was 11 and you put  ink in my tea oh rude oh I believe that was   one of my younger brothers perhaps Samuel or  Nathan it was you and it turned my teeth black   for a month whoa I would be so mad glad you  didn't get poisoned yeah our first order of   business and our last if we vote a levy our  first order of business will be an address by   Colonel Harry Burwell of the continental army  costume design on point y'all yeah looks great   oh Chris I love him yeah I'm a soldier and  we are at War from Philadelphia we expect a   declaration of independence yep Massachusetts  and Virginia may be at War but South Carolina   is not oh him too God I mean literally everyone  is not a war for the independence of one or two   colonies but for the independence of one nation  and uh yes what nation is that an American Nation   there is no such nation and to speak of one  is treason oh we are citizens of an American   Nation and our rights are being threatened by  a tyrant 3,000 M away yeah whole Ocean's why   should I trade one Tyrant 3,000 M away for  3,000 tyrants one mile away bars an elected   legislature can trample a man's rights as easily  as a king can I understood you to be Patriot if   you mean by Patriot am I angry about taxation  without presentation well yes I am yeah but if   you're asking me am I willing to go to war with  England well then the answer is most definitely   no okay we'll see this from the same Captain  Benjamin Martin whose Fury was so famous during   the Wilderness Campaign o i was intemperate in my  youth Temperance can be a convenient disguise for   fear uh-oh we take our case before the king we  plead with him yes we've tried that well then   we try again and again if necessary to avoid  a war we write him a Stern letter the British   Advanced three times and we killed over 700 of  them at Point Blank Range and still they took   the ground oh that is the measure of their resolve  okay yeah they've got numbers and resources I have   seven children my wife is dead now who's to care  for them if I go to war yeah yeah good question   Wars are not fought only by childless men but  mark my words this war will be fought not on   the frontier or on some distant battle field but  amongst us among our homes yeah our children will   learn of it with their own eyes and the innocent  will die with the rest of us slow Dolly pushing   is really good and because I will not fight I will  not cast a vote that will send others to fight in   my stead huh his son stand on business there and  your principles I'm a parent I haven't got the   luxury of principles huh to certain principles  yeah good line the writing in this is so very good oh he's signing up I thought you a man of  principle when you have a family of your own   perhaps you'll understand when I have a family of  my own I won't hide behind them woof there's a lot   of good perspectives flying around

[Music] [Applause]   sure wow I want to understand why the music why  the Fanfare is the the tone that it is right   it's so kind of light and sprightly yeah for  what we're doing here yeah agreed I guess it's   what they played when they were going to war I'm  like is this to boost morale right keep spirits up I mean how do they just keep Mar  like it does like all combat takes   an insane amount of resolve but just  yeah just to March forward into fire   to death like yeah and if you're at the  front you just like you know what your   odds are yeah [Music] fire oh Jesus I mean wow  so weird where'd you come from I'm not going   back no I didn't expect you would that Gates is  a damn fool spent too many years in the British   army going muzzled muzzled with red coats in  open field

came  clean up there that came right   my face and it took it decapitated that guy  that was a great illustrative POV amazing   right in right what he would have seen  and and just a matter of fact it's lost cause is he going to take it with him yeah he's going to put it in his coat pocket and  it's going to stop a bullet later Benjamin Martin   I'm in no mood for a lecture your general Gates

along  the Blue Ridge the English settlers had sought   Refuge at Fort Charles by the time we got there  they left about a week before but what we found   was they' killed all the settlers men with  the women and some of the children they had   we buried them all what was left of them oh wow  we caught up with them at Fort Wilderness we took   our time we cut them apart slowly oh we placed  the heads on a pallet and sent them back with   the two that lived to Fort ambercon wow wow  tongues fing ERS we put in baskets sent them   down the ashel of the Cherokee wow woof soon  after the Cherokee broke their treaty with the   French that's how we Justified it Jesus Thomas  was my brother as well as your son you may not   believe this but I want satisfaction as much  as you do not at the expense of our cause yeah   there will be a time for avenge and until then  stay the course that's what your mother used   to say to me when I'd uh get drunk or lose my  temper she said to me when I picked on [Music] Thomas but oh what's going on here who do  we got the British got 18 of our men at   four Caroline oh dang yeah they going to be hung  one at a time until I give up the rest of them

to your mind what are   appropriate levels of hostile attention that is  the million trillion dollar question would follow   from leaderless armies having at each other there  must be gentlemen in command to lead and and and   when necessary restrain their men restrain them  from saying targeting civilians women children and   such that's a separate is you no no no I consider  them linked and as long as your soldiers attack   civilians I will order the shooting of officers  at the outset of every engagement and my men are   excellent marksmen yep now let us move on to  prisoner exchange

a it's like a David Mammoth like movie   you know it's one of those movies where you're  like oh yeah play right definitely wrote this   yeah um but yeah they're doing some kind of period  piece and it's like one of those you know kind of   there's a bit of like you know Showbiz inside  baseball you know quality of the movie and they're   making some period piece and they H they're  forced into a position to take money from a   computer company and and somehow like work it into  a scene as a billboard in like a oh God in like a   time where computers don't exist so like yeah what  yeah I love David M and I've not seen that oh yeah   yeah I do check that out it's got early julus  Styles it's got oh wow Alec Baldin I think is   in it need to get on that game yeah but anyway the  Patriot anyway the Patriot I mean I wow give Mel   Gibson an Oscar I hope that this was nominated he  did some brilliant acting I really I know nothing   I was a sleep as an actor I mean that man is a  brilliant actor he's a brilliant actor I mean as   we know the there's some bad juju on him now but  I'm saying just for this and for this film as an   actor yeah great job um and great Direction every  shot was just beautiful they did so many golden   hour sunset time shots and I don't know if that  if they were able to time it up and and it's mixed   with special effects but that takes a lot of work  to be able to just get that shot you have very   limited a time and you better be like on it and  I always am like hats off to shots that and and   movies that do that and can pull it off and make  it look gorgeous and they do that in all of these   shots and in the even in the all of it overall  even in the the battle I mean I was like it tense   it was tense and in the emotional moments the  the time where they let us like have a breather   but it was I felt all of the things it was just  so terribly sad when his son dies and both times   both times I mean all of it I I love this film I  get I think it's sad I've gone this long without   seeing it sure yeah like and I mean you know I  there's a I think war movie of any variety is like   a Pantheon of you know stories and and especially  as it pertains you know any war movie about your   own country's history kind of occupies like a  special sort of Lane I feel like kind of unique   within the greater Realms of Cinema and all that  but especially a a war movie that's like about the   formation of your country and all that and I feel  like revolutionary War especially isn't one of the   better trotted like you know there are a lot of  World War II movies there Vietnam movies I feel   like there are a few definitely a few very notable  Civil War movies yeah but you know like world like   World War I in recent years I feel like has been  getting more attention with films like 1917 and   other stuff you know kind of going back to that  time but especially the revolution at least to my   knowledge feels like one of the less exp covered  yeah like you know there's Barry Linden there's   the the the cubric movie but even that I feel like  is a a different beast from something like this   that yeah like I'm so fascinated because yeah like  it it does feel kind of like a quintessential I   don't think heavily in terms of of uh uh National  I don't have a very nationalistic lens on things   but as you know an American this does kind of  seem like a movie that you know if you're thinking   about art that pertains to just what that means  like this does quintessential to that and like an   essential viewing experience and it's funny that  that you know Roland Emer is a I believe like a   German guy oh you know and I'm fascinated that  he was the one to direct this uh not I mean in   in some parts that's kind of a beautiful thing  that encapsulates the American Spirit is you   it could be anybody from anywhere who made this  but I'm curious to know what brought him to the   project and if he was like passionate about this  or what because yeah I thought this was so knowing   his name because of big Blockbuster Action Fair  uh I haven't seen all of Pearl Harbor but Michael   Bay gets dogged a lot for Pearl Harbor cuz that  was his big attempt at making something like this   something Grand and epic and dramatic uh but that  also plays to his strengths as an action director   and whatnot and and this definitely felt like I  feel like you brought up Spielberg or somebody   earlier on and this this felt like uh more akin  to like a Spielberg type of dramatic epic where   yeah it's got the swell and there's certain  moments that do have that element of heart or   that element of uh spectacle even but but it's not  do like the one scene in the woods where uh you   know the three of them that establishes the ghost  uh sort of the ghost story of him you know as this   uh you know Unstoppable he's everywhere sort of  figure that's the only like sequence in the movie   that felt like it was from kind of a block cut  of Blockbuster cloth cuz he's out here with the   axe and the knife and he's just and like you know  that one like John wiish moment aside like so much   of this yeah felt really well observed and there  was so many great details in the performances and   the production values and again what what feels  certainly like a lot of attention to historical   detail I'm sure details are moved around and  whatnot but uh but yeah like this really felt like   a film and an epic and and I think especially when  you're in subject matter in this kind of territory   yeah I don't know I I I think it does beg there's  like an interesting quality that that will happen   in a movie like this when it's working where man  you really do feel like all of the craftsmanship   and the time it's like you were mentioning all  these uh Magic hour shots and stuff like that   which yeah you have to really be on your game  in terms of all that got to be exposed right   you got to have everyone ready at a very specific  moment in the day and that but also it is one of   the few films where I've ever had this thought of  like yeah I get why days on set are like 18 hours   long sometimes because you look at some of these  moments and you're like the camera blocking and   movement seems very intentional this is one of  those movies you like in film School especially   it's probably a requirement I would bet but but  also like you know especially in cinematography   class we would be sitting around there would be  projects where you would have to take scenes and   break them down and and you know identify every  shot and what the intent is and you know kind   of the meme of that in school is sort of like I'm  sure some of these were just like I put the camera   somewhere we need coverage but you watch a movie  like this and you're like I really believe that   they composed every shot I agree every lens was  chosen distinctly every lighting Choice all these   smoke plumes must have been like I'm sure there  were happy accidents too sure but uh but yeah this   it's like we have such great production values and  and such great uh potential for all the things we   can realize with all the tools we have now yeah  but watching something like this really does feel   like you amassed a ton of people's time and care  and resources to craft this thing that yeah like   I don't know it it definitely feels like a like a  big old piece yeah you like a huge big piece and I   I really like the fact that you know Mel Gibson's  character he's a true patriot before he's broken   in the beginning because of his wife he loses his  wife and he's not really being the greatest dad   to his kids he's like broken and the thing that  pieces him back together is returning to that   patriotic nature of who he is which is why we see  it in his son's blood it's like and then it pays   off in the end that he is the true patriot and  that is why his son and his sons are like they're   it's just in their blood that's just what runs in  the family and even though he tried to hold back   to say I have a family now so I can't do it it's  like it it comes back to to Biden but in all the   the best ways because he ended up being the leader  that I think he's probably was always meant to be   right the the Patriot that they all needed to Sure  win but also a little bit to win himself back to   to be able to taste a bit of that Glory that is  heaped upon Him due to that whole uh what was   it uh the battle at Wilderness or whatever that  that memory of his where he's seen as a hero even   though they did these atrocious things you know in  order to to secure that Victory and the constant   questioning of like how far is too far what death  is justifiable what cruelty is permissible and   when and uh and yeah like even that you know him  having obvious shame and Trauma about his actions   of the past regardless of you know the greater  uh you know good they might have achieved in   whatever context for the country like you know  I could absolutely see his apprehension you know   especially with his sons eager to run off to war  eager to fight for something they believe in and   I think it's a nice thing that doesn't need to be  fully articulated in dialogue but yeah it's like   oh these things about yourself that you're afraid  of you managed to pass along to your kin in a way   that elevated them and and it's that thing he says  of yeah like you know our sons my sons were the   are the better men were the better men they were  able to take our learn from our failings and learn   from our you know atrocities and whatever else  and our triumphs all that stuff yeah especially   when his son is like it's my duty he had a duty  to follow and you don't really get that sense of   moral code and it it has to come from what you've  been taught and I I loved also that you know when   the Suns get involved and they're a good shot  in that beginning fight that was wild that was   some John Wick juice that I I mean that was so  awesome and that the kids are like he's taking   him out he didn't miss a shot and it's terrible  to Sure throw him in there and the younger kid   was just looks terrified and crying but like you  know that it does even though he didn't come off   in the beginning as like the best dad he's kind of  broken probably a little absent he misses his wife   that he still spent time with his kids that time  he had to have trained them right of like here's   how we're going to defend ourselves um and that's  the way that he could show being a father but then   at the end especially when they like see him kiss  the the lady and they kind of look up and they   like oh and then when especially at the but at the  end end when they all arrive together you see him   in a different light uh different fatherhood light  because what he was fighting for the whole time   was you you're meant to stay here with me we are a  family you I don't want you to go back out there I   don't want you to live my past life but you do  have to learn to to let people make their own   independent decisions you know and his children  they made theirs and they they're you know and   he's living with those consequences and so are  they but I I think at the end we're seeing a true   vision of like his his life and his home that he  wanted and now because we learned in the beginning   his slaves were not slaves they were free men and  they were working they were working the field that   now at the end it is all these people working  kind of for a very great leader that inspired   them like he was the one that got them through it  in that moment and that is such a huge deal and I   would I would go to to build that up because you  would want to follow someone like that and I and I   think it's such a beautiful ending because I think  just because he's a good fighter and a really good   Patriot and he did all this stuff in the past  we we see now that like what he would really   do is build a really beautiful town with people  and bring more peace he doesn't want to go back   to that but if he needs to he can rally yeah and  I and I liked the the fact I mean obviously this   doesn't dissect so it's not a dialogue about  every single you know contextual overlapping   thing about the themes of the war I mean there's  I I liked that they at least touched on all that   stuff throughout they they they didn't go deep  into especially like slavery and things like that   and there is that moment where you're teetering  on like oh yeah we're gonna build a much better   future and people are being promised freedom and  we know that past this point in time certainly   those promises were not always delivered upon  yeah um in most cases in a lot of cases were're   not delivered but uh I at least appreciated the  way the movie handled yeah the different elements   of who is fighting why they are fighting who is  welcome and what what squabbles are happening here   at home look up trivia while you're talking  going please and and and it's in that kind   of early thing that um uh uh Ben says in that  first Gathering they're all having of like you   know I want a free country for us I believe that  you know we have the right you know being so far   removed from England and having such ideological  differences we have the right to have our own   space to to you know uh uh set up a a place based  on our own ideals and beliefs and uh and you know   I'm not willing to stoop to a certain level of  Cruelty to get that and I'm also not eager to   yeah instill install some kind of uh rule here  that's going to be just as tyrannical or just as   stifling as what we're trying to get away from  like I I like that they at least were always   kind of keeping an eye on and an awareness of the  the true kind of intellectual struggle of all of   this because there are so many ways in which  it's like we justify deaths in the moment or   we justify cruelty in the moment or we try to  promise things that we're not going to deliver   onto certain people just to make sure that we get  the victory right here and now um so yeah even if   this isn't Like A Treatise on all these themes  I thought it at least encompassed them well and   I think the only thing that doesn't really get  brought up is the idea that like because this is   a story about the American Revolution and because  this is about us you know kind of obtaining key   strides toward the defeat of the the you know  British forces you know really spend much time   about like us encroaching on the Native Americans  or anything like that you know which not saying   the movie has to do but uh but yeah like this I  thought managed to be again rousing and epic and   Triumph of the human spirit and all that stuff it  managed to be compellingly historical it managed   to at least kind of touch upon a lot of the major  themes of the struggle and the and the you know   multiple ideas you have to be willing to hold at  once and kind of understand all simultaneously   the complications of the fight for a nation what  a nation is our specific history all that stuff   yeah and then you have yeah certain little moments  that do give you like a little audience reward of   like ah here's a little moment of humor here's  a moment that's kind of cool um and big respect   also to the folks who had to play you know the  various especially Jason Isaac's like a lot of   thankless roles and a lot of roles that you know  the audience is going to be you know charged up   against and and I thought everybody on screen  brought their aame brought a lot of presents   like so many memorable characters and uh and  it's like you know I I love that little thing   with his daughter which is you know at first you  know when he's saying goodbye it is sort of like   a funny little like oh you you just said one word  to her you gave like a monologue to each of your   other kids and like you know that is like a real  thing of that you can head Cannon and think about   that and be like oh yeah like no wonder their  relationship is such that it is and when they   finally have like a true real exchange when she  runs after that's a beautiful thing or like the   the the Donald log character and the guy who's  saving up for his freedom you know who's like   I'm going to get my year I'm going to get paid  I'm going to get my fre I've got something to   work toward and that's a thing that I think  especially in a movie like this uh could be   because they go out of their way to say okay Mel  Gibson's character these are freed men working   for him so as an audience we can get on board  yeah his the the you know the Auntie who he's   getting with like she's got slaves and we don't  really spend much time dealing with that so like   there there are elements of that conversation  that obviously are not as as fleshed out as they   could be here uh and that thing with Donald Logan  and the and the guy who's who the names not great   with names in a movie like this but those two  could have been so cloying and hack need like   that could have been very uh that that could have  gone wrong I it could have been harsher it could   have been harsher and it also could have been  like okay I I it could have been more sacarin   than it struck me uh or like overly melodramatic  or something exactly I thought it was just the   right amount to like when he finally like it's  clear he finally earned his respect and he turn [Music] is but it will just there but the  but just and that's an important thing in   the moment and and because of you know  people like that willing to learn and to   again you're fighting next to somebody for  so long and you see the strength of their   character like I thought yeah for the movie  and for the spirit of what America's supposed   to be that wound up complimentary  and it was one of those things that kind andiz it's tying itself up you're like oh  cool well done it was welded in there really   nicely yeah like whoever wrote this thing like  I you've got the IMDb right I'm going to pull it   up I was also just going to say the line of like  him saying how do men justify why do men feel like   they can justify death I felt like the the adding  in that line in the movie questioning itself um   was just speaks to like everything right it just  it's a good like moral code that shows like what   how what he has in his heart but also all war  yeah yeah exactly um okay I got some cool um   trivia here so real quick when teaching Mel Gibson  Heath Ledger how to shoot the muzzle loading rifle   the technical adviser gave them advice to aim  small Miss small meaning if you aim at a man and   you miss you miss the man so um Gibson like this  advice so much he Incorporated it into the movie   Just prior to the Ambush scene I was literally  thinking about that Lally just prior to it wow   that's crazy right so also Heath Ledger didn't  work for a year because he only got offers for   teen heartthrob rolls don't we know it he was  about to quit acting and returned to Australia   when he was cast in this film wow wow that insane  yeah I can imagine that now I remember this yeah   I oh this is feeling in just like cultural context  from way back when um also sidebar this guy wrote   Saving Private Ryan so okay this there we have  it and did the story by for Thor the Dark World   everyone's favorite Thor Andrew would love that  all right he's I mean I love that okay now here's   one for you oh this is me the historical accuracy  of the costumes and settings was overseen by the   Smithsonian Institution wow it was the first  time the institution ever worked directly on   the production of a movie I believe that [ __ ]  that's why we were remember I mean right off the   bat I was like costume design what the the first  time that they ever did that was on this movie   that's insane when he looked at the at I think  it's was it the French Guy Somebody there's an   exchange where they're like oh this coat smells  and he's like yeah somebody died in it I'm like   maybe they really did maybe it's like an authentic  coat you're wearing on screen right now um actual   amputees were cast to play soldiers who lost their  limbs okay okay given work to the veterans sure uh   it would be nice for them to get some rolls that  aren't only that but also I appreciate that they   got the roles in an authentic way yeah yeah um  okay one of the Red Coats which were actually   dummies that is floating face down in the river  after the Trap is a dummy of John Travolta yes   yeah oh they must have been just in the effect  house just like what what bodies do we got on hand   right we got something from Face Off throw it in  here it's so good um okay let me see if I can find   one more spoiler for you guys um let's see uh that  one's kind of boring um give me a second if you   find one that that says like what what Roland Emer  had to say let me know I'm I'm going to see if   there see if you can find it um yeah I'm not I'm  not finding much more in here except that Heath   Ledger said researching the American Revolutionary  War for the film answered the question of why   Americans wave their flag so high it's because  they went to hell and back to build their country   it was the last one I could kind of find the rest  of them are like long ended winded things I've   got a I've got a quote here okay let's do it uh  I'm I'm gonna I want to make sure that it's from   uh Roland Emer uh before okay okay no see that's  why I didn't want to that cuz yeah I Googled why   did Emer why did Roland Emer decide to be the  one to make this and that gave me a quote that   was a really good quote but I'm like I also don't  think that he grew up in Williamsburg oh I don't   think he grew up in Virginia um either way though  like I I think yeah this this definitely lived up   to its Legacy most certainly and to you know the  idea of like what it means to be a patriot what   is patriotism what does that mean to you now is  is a charged up concept and certainly again you   uh uh when you do intermingle uh you know art and  reality and you think like oh you know knowing   what we know about Mel Gibson's politics and  some of his attitudes it it's interesting to   see a character at least that is again you have  to I think with a movie called The Patriot have   some kind of line that it's yeah it's about the  spirit it's about the true ideal of what this   is and and it's about a person who may be flawed  but can overcome those flaws and has the necessary   virtues and so yeah thought as to go with that  distinct striking title it makes sense why it   would be that guy and it makes sense why I think  it it gets to hopefully or or at least verges on   the better aspects of patriotism and the darker  sides of patriotism without you know candy coating   too again I don't know much about the actual guy  so I I wonder what the rest of his story is but   they you know he's clearly got demons in the past  and actions that he's ashamed of and so like yeah   and there's that Redemptive quality of America  as well and and the sort of weird Collective but   also loners kind of thing where he he does you  know kind of have his own path and his own way   and he's kind of getting everybody on his program  but uh but yeah this was a Tor of forest man and   it speaks to like the ordinary man the family man  that's a very America thing where like he's the   Patriot but it's like he was you know before he  wanted to stay in just in this home with his kids   and live his life and that too and that's a great  uh I guess we could talk about this all day but I   guess the one last thing that comes to mind is  the fact that we do we're living in a moment   now we like as we're shooting this there's a war  happening yeah like there are atrocities happening   in the world right this minute and we are very  far away from them and so there's only so much   especially just us down here on the ground can  do and and what they directly touch upon here is   that yeah this isn't that whole monologue about  this isn't going to be a war in some distant   place that you can only theorize about this is  going to be a war that's marching through your   town square burning your house down it's being  fought everywhere that you might live or rest or   or do your work or whatever it is and and that's a  thing that is super striking that many of us don't   have to Grapple with at all um that really does  especially yeah this kind of thing where it's like   you really feel that Spirit of of of the necessity  to act and and like yeah there's a lot at stake   and the argument of you know it's like in certain  places of the world in this time I think it's way   easier to remove yourself and to over theorize  various things whereas here it is the sort of   like the future of how we live is at stake and we  believe in this ideal and that constant thing of   like you know those multiple scenes in churches  or whatever where people are like you know and   it's always the woman standing up being like you  guys talk about this all the time are you going   to stand on this business or you just going  to talk about it and then let them roll roll   you over and yeah like plant their flag in you  uh you know yeah I think that that is the kind   of thing you should be leaving with reflection on  and it's like you know if so many of these things   didn't go the way they did we wouldn't be here  in this form right now I me it wasn't for that   girl standing up in the church and I love that  it was a you know that her to to unite them they   they probably would have been a little bit like  oh this will never work but then like all those   guys stood up you know and here here we go what  have we been talking about all this time we're   all just afraid and and two it's about what you  do in the face of that fear rather than just the   fact that you know to quote another war movie oh  wow here he goes major chip Hazard says in Small   Soldiers you know we're all scared you'd have to  be crazy not to be scared and uh you know that's   that's a thing right there you know you got to  stand in the face of that fear and that's a a   calling that we all have to Grapple with in some  way shape or form hopefully you're not in a war   ever but sometimes that's the case or sometimes  horrific circumstances the case and yeah are you   the the ideals versus the action are two different  things that are always there are two polls you got   to always be managing and bringing close together  yeah yeah I agree man the Patriot Cinema we see   you make sure guys just share this video leave  your comments leave like the historical stuff   that we didn't know just tell us how you feel  about it and how you feel about us cuz we love   you we love you recommend us a book yeah totally  like this video share it you know all the juice   we love you guys so so much thanks for supporting  us and we will see you guys on the next one bye
