Nathan hale nothing you said about bunker hill is correct at all. What actually happened is first off the other hill was called Breeds hill not reeds hill. Secondly, they intentionally set up defenses on breeds hill for strategic positioning as it would be easier to defend than bunker hill. It worked in fact, as the British regulars attempted to climb the hill two times and both times were pushed back by the militia. The third time they were successful only due to the continental running out of ammo and having to retreat. Technically a British victory but they suffered 1000 casualties to the continental 400 casualties. That’s what actually happened. The strategy was correctly placed.

Now my old logic speaker and sub was as loud and can buy agai from for £40 from cex. 400 i spent on Sony set up . I need a good set up that just goes in the headphones jack on tv. Do you know away round it never had a home theatre before just want something that can use with xbox firestick etc. But as say the hdmi cable is plugged in tp hdmi 3 i can only watch tv.

Despite some historical inaccuracy, considering when this came out it was a great movie. The uniforms were great looking and the entertainment value was there. I have a habit of liking the bad guys, so Tarleton was a great evil role also. I always said Jason Isaacs would have made a great Gaston in beauty and the beast too, in his younger years like this movie 👍👌

There´s no shame in being proud of where you are from as long as you respect other people's cultural legacy. I am proud of being Peruvian, that's why I understand, respect, and admire how Americans honor their own cultural and historical legacy, everyone should be proud of his or her own country.
