is there one who has watched the film 'Revolution'? i watched last friday.
after watching it,personally, i think it is a good one. it worths your appreciation. Wink
on the first look of the title, you must have imagined what the story is about .Razz the story is set when the Britain aggrevated America. at that time, everyone in America was patriotic and called for independence.thereby the country urgely needed strong men to join the army to fight back the british soldiers. Dobb,who is the one of the main charater in the film is the father of the little boy named Nedd. the film presents the deep love between father and son. after they came to Washington, a series of unexpected events arrived them.
at first, they were both forced to join the army to the battle where another character Daisy,who was the daughter of the president of the American army, came to their life. she had a special personality that is greatly different from her other family members. she was very concerned with the current affairs and showed great sympathy to the wounded. she even ran to the battle,carrying much food, and offered her help to the doctor. it was then she came up with Dobb who was injured by the gunfire and lying on the field. she felt upset on seeing this.
later, the father and son experienced the road of escaping and even disjunction. Nedd was caught by the british soldier to play the drum in the procession. one time, he was ordered to polish the general' shoes,but he refused. he was then cruelly beat by one of the soldier and was badly injured. he was almost on the edge of death. Daisy ran to inform Dobb about Nedd and then Dobb went to save his Nedd.
after coming to the british army procession and found his Nedd, he picked up the badly injured Nedd and again began another road of escape. they were followed by two men who looked like native people in that area. Dobb was fantastic indeed!! he killed the two stupid men!! then fortunately he came up with another several native people who did no harm to them. the native men took the father and son to their home and tried their best to cure dying Nedd. it was the scene that moved me greatly. during the curing process, Nedd was almost going to die and it was the great father, Dobb ,who gave the son so much courage of fighting with death boldly. Dobb described a beautiful picture to Nedd which greatly reduced Nedd' pain. how wonderful love it showed!! i just couldnot resist tearing then.
when the film came to the ending part, it was six mounths after Nedd was cured, Daisy came to see the wounded as before. then, she met Nedd and Nedd took her to see his father Dobb...
Razz the outcome was a happy one, and everyone could imagine Razz Wink
