Description: There is not one single movie that I can think of that causes more consternation and debate among historians and history fanatics alike than Mel Gibson’s The Patriot. Some hate this movie with the heat of a thousands suns, some love it. Is there something in between though? Does this movie get some things right, but also take big liberties? Michael Troy of the American Revolution podcast will take us through the real events represented by this controversial movie. I can’t wait, this is the movie that must be talked about if you are going to have a historical based movie podcast, so let’s dive in!
