影片内容介绍

剧情简介

This six-tape set provides a clear and complete narrative of the events surrounding the birth of America. Unfortunately, it is a bit dry, as the repetitive music is distracting and certain images are shown far too frequently. However, the varied materials used to tell this tale will please history buffs. The producers employed a blend of battle reenactments, location filming, paintings, engravings, and the narratives of actual letters and documents from the 1770s. Events are covered in detail--these are not just the highlights remembered from school. However, due to the density of the material, you have to be a fan of the genre. The narrators include such well-polished actors as Charles Durning, Michael Learned, Rick Schroder, and Cliff Robertson

分集介绍

　Part 1: The Conflict Ignites

This is the first hour of a six-hour series on the American Revolution. It discusses the origins of the American Revolution, presenting both the colonial and the British points of view, as well as the early military encounters prior to 1776.

　Part 2: 1776

As events get rolling that would lead to the formation of the United States, the big brains meet at the Second Continental Congress to form the Continental Army and place George Washington at the top as general. In other news, Benedict Arnold—yep, that one—dominates on the battlefield and The Declaration of Independence is drafted.

　Part 3: Washington & Arnold

"The American Spirit" tells the story of the Continental Army's struggle against the British from the battle of Trenton on December 26, 1776 to Burgoyne's surrender at Saratoga on October 17, 1777. Against terrible odds George Washington, the officers, and the soldiers of the Continental Army exploited the weaknesses of the British Army and convinced the world that the American cause was not hopeless.

　Part 4: The World At War

One of the greatest American victories of the Revolutionary War occurred not on the battlefield but in the Court of France. Ben Franklin helped the American cause as Ambassador to France, convincing the French to enter the war in February, 1778. While Franklin worked in the opulent court of Louis XVI other Americans were fighting the British and their Native American allies on the rugged frontier.

　Part 5: England's Last Chance

After the Battle of Saratoga and the American alliance with France success seemed a real possibility. However, enormous weaknesses in the Americans' strategy remained. In August, 1780, Benedict Arnold was made commander of West Point. In this program Arnold's treachery is analyzed , as well as the role of American privateers fighting the British Navy.

　Part 6: Birth of the Republic

The last year of the Revolutionary War was difficult for the Continental Army. In 1781 the Continentals were financially strapped and battle weary -- they fought on and defeated the British, driving Cornwallis's army from Yorktown in October of that year.
