At the risk of revealing a 'spoiler' as regards the end credits, I register a strong disagreement in that Ben Franklin was never properly 'thanked'.
He may have not been lauded in such a fashion as the French regarded Lafayette however in a democratic republic he has been honored with his face on the One Hundred Dollar bill.
Only he and Alexander Hamilton hold that distinction over Presidents.
This is a very entertaining and educational effort and I applaud Apple TV for it. Michael Douglas is simply brilliant in every way.
Such a critical role of Franklin to secure the support of the French in the great Revolution, otherwise there is no America.
The troops, the money and the leadership of the Marquis De Lafayette all came about as a direct influence of Ben Franklin.
History regards him as one of the key Founding Fathers much in the same manner as George Washington.
Though he was not a soldier, fighting on the front lines, what he did is not less important or critical to the success of birthing a new nation.
He was and remains a true Patriot.
