19. • A British-made film about the War of
Independence was never likely to succeed with
American audiences, but the box-office failure of
this expensive, high-profile film did not necessarily
stem from nationalistic prejudice. Revolution is
surprisingly even-handed. True, the American
patriots are portrayed as excitable rabble, but the
sadistic British are hardly the heroes of the film.
