This TV film is based on events that were developed on April 19, 1775. The first battle of the American War of Independence was in Lexington on the northside of Boston. The British sent about 800 troops to take control of stores at Concord and arrest two men that were rebels. The rebels were warned by a man named Paul Revere, because they were warned more troops under command of a Major encountered the party of about 50 Minutemen. The Minutemen were a small group that were highly trained elite forces. There were 2-3 other parties there waiting for orders to attack. When the Commander did say to open fire no one did anything but stood there. Since nothing was happening a Commander named Pitcairn ordered his troops to open fire killing eight Minutemen, the situation had the other parties shocked to their feet and retreated. A couple days later the British ambushed Concord where the fight had taken place and killed 49 Americans and 73 British along with 174 British wounded and 39 Americans wounded.
The movie alone was a good experience and showed how many people you can lose with wanting power. I feel like the fighting was unnecessary but I would guess back in the day it was either die for what you wished you would've fought for. The setting of the movie had many make-up costumes that were close enough to how it was back in the day. Since the movie was about war there were graphic and gore scenes. What was important about this movie was that it makes the American War very personal to many people. Maybe no one had to die that day but we know that that would've been very unlikely. I was impressed by how the movie was made and how graphic the movie itself was due to how long the American War was. The costumes made it 10x better along with the quality of the movie.
The movie April Morning was a very fun and interesting experience to watch. It helped me learn a lot about how it was in the past and that most people had it very hard unless you were wealthy. The war was very unnecessary but it proved a point to the ones that wanted the war which would be the Commander and Major themselves. What has happened in the past would be left but not forgotten. There are rarely any wars in this time of place but I hope that this does not keep going on and that people understand, power isn't everything. I would recommend this movie to High School students that have history because it is a good experience and movie to watch. Based on this movie it shows that the idea of war is hard on the families of those who fight in them. Wars show nothing changes when it's your family facing the fight for freedom no matter what the time period. This movie was a good movie and proved many true big facts about what had happened in the past when it occurred in 1775. Two thumbs up.
