When you heard, “Papa! Papa! Please don’t go!…” you could look around the theater and close to half the men were tearing up so don’t apologize for tearing up yourself.
That is all she does all the time tho... seems like she is really trying to squeeze those tears out at any chance to zoom in on it and make a thumbnail out of it... gets old and annoying real quick for me
I'd say more than half and definitely all the fathers.
@@gingerbaker_toad696 you don't have to be here =)
@@gingerbaker_toad696why do you have to be this way all the time 😔🤔.
What's the reason??
@@TheWindcrow haven't been here for a while, was here for about 10min, won't be here for a while :)
I can understand the rage Gibson portrayed when he was hacking that soldier to death in the beginning of the film. A father’s grief and rage can be a terrible thing and if you aren’t mindful, it can consume everyone around you before you yourself are gone inside it. That part of the film was the most powerful for me and the three boys did a good job selling their point of view on a side of their father they had never seen before.
Whoever made the qoute "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" has clearly never met a vengeful father.
@Ender7j yep. That was the side that they may have heard about, but couldn't fathom it because Benjamin was a different person during those times.
@@covertius4287 ah sexism. gotta love when someone says the rage felt by 1 person is greater then that same rage felt by another person. are you saying that a mothers rage in that same situation is less then a fathers? why wouldnt be equal? are you saying women are not able to have the same level of rage / feelings as men?
@@endling_king960 😂😂😂😂😂😂
There are 3 things all wise men fear:
The Sea in a Storm
A Night with No Moon
The Anger of a Gentle Man
"Papa. What do you want me to say? I'll say anything"... Gutted.
I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying.....
Every single time
@@fubar1217everyone of us is crying. Stop it
Depressing fact. The actress who played her died at 21.
..didn't work - untill i got kids, later!
If you liked this film a must watch is "Last of the Mohicans" which focuses on the French and Indian War 1754-1763 with a great performance by Daniel Day Lewis and Wes Studi. It also is the war Mel Gibson talks about from his past in this film at that Fort.
excellent recommendation.
Agreed! Great movie with an amazing soundtrack.
@@tjhorne82 One of the best out there for sure in soundtracks, even today.
@@allevengood I play it at work to help me focus.
TIL the Seven Year’s War lasted nine years in North America
Great reaction Stef like always love this movie! The line “Papa don’t go I’ll say anything” gets me every time. RIP to that little girl (Skye McCole Bartusiak) and Heath Ledger. People always seem so baffled about the way battles were fought, understandably, but the line formations and volleys didn't usually last very long, just for the beginning of battles, and if you think about it this is the way battles have always been fought except instead of arrows, spears, and shields there's rifles and cannons having been invented and innovated relatively recently.
The general situation and the order of events are accurate. The character Benjamin Martin is patterened loosely after Francis Marion, “The Swamp Fox”, who had a nephew named Gabriel. His legacy still thrives to this day as South Carolina has many businesses, streets, highways, towns, schools and even colleges named after him.
The character Colonel Tavington is patterened after Lt. Colonel Banestre Tarleton. The final battle is patterened after The Battle of the Cowpens in South Carolina, insomuch as the tactics. The terrain is completely different. Cornwallis was not involved. It is possibly the first time that the American Army used a defense in depth. Lt. Colonel Tarleton's forces were decimated and routed. Disney did a TV series called The Swamp Fox. All episodes are on TH-cam.
And some fun-facts about it. The scene where Benjamin Martin (Mel Gibson) returns the dogs to General Cornwallis (Tom Wilkinson) may be based on a similar story told about General George Washington. During the Revolutionary War, Washington reportedly noticed the terrier of a British General wandering the battlefield. He subsequently negotiated a cease-fire, and both sides stopped firing until the dog was returned to the British commander
The historical accuracy of the costumes and settings was overseen by the Smithsonian Institution. It's the first time the Institution ever worked directly on the production of a movie. Actual amputees were cast to play soldiers who lost their limbs. Anne's speech was inspired by letters Abigail Adams sent to John Adams during the Revolution. Keep up the good work.
The regulars on both sides were shooting smooth bore flintlock muskets which were accurate only at very close ranges---much faster to load than the much more accurate hunting rifles carried by many men of the Carolina militia. A technology tradeoff. The riflemen were especially vulnerable to cavalry, who would be on top of them before they could reload.
I had no idea the little girl had passed away
@@JohnWick-df7wc yep, unfortunately most people don't know that little sad 😔 detail
Jason Issacs' "Colonel William Tavington" is still one of the most underrated antagonists of all time. This was the role of a lifetime for him, and he should have received an Oscar nomination for this terrifying performance.
No he should not have received just a nomination...
He deserved the Oscar.
@@Savatage1964 well said.
he has SUCH a presence. Real fantastic actor.
Totally agree, he was the highlight for me in this movie and the more I watch it the more I love his performance. Absolutley great stuff.
Liked him in Event Horizon as well, he is a great actor.
Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence? What fates befell them for daring to put their names to that document?
Five signers were captured by the British as traitors and tortured before they died.
Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned.
Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army, another had two sons captured.
Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the Revolutionary War.
They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor.
What kind of men were they?
Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants, nine were farmers and large plantation owners; men of means, well educated. But they signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty would be death if they were captured.
Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships swept from the seas by the British Navy. He sold his home and properties to pay his debts, and died in rags.
Thomas McKeam was so hounded by the British that he was forced to move his family almost constantly. He served in the Congress without pay, and his family was kept in hiding. His possessions were taken from him, and poverty was his reward.
Vandals or soldiers looted the properties of Dillery, Hall, Clymer, Walton, Gwinnett, Heyward, Ruttledge, and Middleton.
At the battle of Yorktown, Thomas Nelson, Jr., noted that the British General Cornwallis had taken over the Nelson home for his headquarters. He quietly urged General George Washington to open fire. The home was destroyed, and Nelson died bankrupt.
Francis Lewis had his home and properties destroyed. The enemy jailed his wife, and she died within a few months.
John Hart was driven from his wife's bedside as she was dying. Their 13 children fled for their lives. His fields and his gristmill were laid to waste. For more than a year, he lived in forests and caves, returning home to find his wife dead and his children vanished. A few weeks later, he died from exhaustion and a broken heart.
Norris and Livingston suffered similar fates.
Such were the stories and sacrifices of the American Revolution. These were not wild-eyed, rabble-rousing ruffians. They were soft-spoken men of means and education. They had security, but they valued liberty more.
My grandfather served in WW2. He once told me "There's a saying among veterans. For those who have served, Freedom has a taste that the protected will never know." So everytime I see a veteran, I thank them, regardless of rank, age, or branch.
"All Gave Some. Some Gave All."
Yeah, and look what's happening to America right now.
@@kylewilson2819 And now that freedom that these men and women fought for is being abused by leftists.
We deen through worse. @@eatsmylifeYT
@eatsmylifeYT Freedom and liberty is being squandered and fritted away by the institutions sworn to protect them, as the people sit fat and idle in the temporary comforts of a false security.
Don't apologize for not talking too much. That speaks out to how well put together and powerful the film truly is.
This is not based on any specific story, but it does embody three historical truths. First, it is true that the fighting in the southern theater of the American Revolution was especially vicious, much more than in the northern theater. Second, Francis Marion, known as “The Swamp Fox,” was a highly effective guerilla leader who hid in the swamps of South Carolina (where the movie is set). He is obviously the model for Benjamin Martin, in a general way. Third, Martin’s statement just before the final battle, about having the militia fire just two shots and then withdraw was a real tactic. It was devised by Brigadier General Daniel Morgan, who led the Continental army to a huge victory at the Battle of Cowpens in South Carolina.
I recommend an American history movie with a similar vibe and spectacular cinematography: "The Last of the Mohicans" (1992). It is based on a famous, early American novel, and is set during the French and Indian War.
Also important to note, the Redcoats have never burned down a church during this war, at least not on purpose. During this time the English were still highly religious due to the recent wars with the Catholic monarchies.
I couldn't agree with you more on every point! One of my closest friends is a direct descendant of Francis Marion.
Yes the reason why is that they wanted to see you cry. 😂😂 No apologies necessary, movies are supposed to get emotional reactions, hurt, laughter, anger, and stressed. Stef the war genre has many great films, don’t sleep on them.
Honest Reactions are better then commentaries, so love when your reactions a pure❤
Skye McCole Bartusiak (Susan) should have gotten an Oscar for best supporting actress. For just her expressions! For such a young girl. The part where she says Papa tears me up every time 😢😢😢
The child actors in this movie are all awesome at their jobs. The girl who played Susan knocked it out of the park
Unfortunately she died at 21.
Your facial expressions during the watch says plenty. Also, your reaction to the main villain is on point. Great reaction all around.
I do appreciate your emotional, authentic reactions. thank you
Every American who says they hate America and its values needs to watch this movie so they can understand their true roots.
They won’t though, they think it’s just racism. If they hate America, they are not true Americans. If they hate this country, they should either leave and never come back, or never come here in the first place. That’s just my opinion though.
They have no idea the price that was paid to be where we are today.
Nothing about this movie is historical.
@@mikeity2009 That’s just a lie, it has many true historical events.
@@FxreverNxthing No actually, everything about this movie is factually wrong. The only thing it got right were the costumes and tactics, everything else including the church burning scene, never happened. Period.
It's historical fiction and crappy, propagandist fiction at that. To think this mirrors actual history at all is absolutely moronic.
I always mean to compliment whoever is editing your reactions. It's always honest and revealing of your true emotional response.
The rocking chairs were built by a Master Craftsman near me. He built them the way he always did, to last, not as props.
When filming the prop department couldn't get them to break because of how well they were built. They had to keep making cuts until they finally broke.
I love how connected you get while you watch these movies, don't ever apologize for getting into it and not saying much! Love your reactions so much!
You’re one of the few great reactionaries. Keep up the awesome work 🍻
Having daughters close to that age....the "Papa, please dont go" absolutely rips my heart to shreds 😭
I see a reaction post for the Patriot and I'm 100% in! I am so glad you're watching this Stef!
judging by the thumbnail it’s going to be good reaction 🥺🫶❤️
Bad guy is Lucious Malfoy in Harry Potter
I am sorry but I have to disagree slightly
Jason Isaacs did indeed play Lucius Malfoy, and quite well
However, Malfoy was just playing dress up as a menace.
Tavington was the embodiment of evil. One of those characters where peace loving people find themselves possessed by a powerful force, leaving said people a little surprised at themselves as they cheer when he dies.
@@Taylorswiftfan13308 I'm confused as to what you're disagreeing with. He is the bad guy in the Patriot.
@@cmbtking I was just messing around. He plays A bad guy in Harry Potter, but he plays THE bad guy in The Patriot.
The face she makes when she's a little confused is just great 😂😂😂😂
I love it, sometimes I say "tell us what you're thinking" "say it!" lol
better to be a warrior in a garden, then a gardener in a battle.
The scenes that hit me the most the death of Thomas, the death of Gabriel but also when Gabriel dies he lets the audience know he blamed himself for Thomas death and thought his father did as well, lastly the final battle and the ex slave who says “he’s here now of his on accord”
I will stand up for the relationship that develops between Benjamin and the aunt, today it's different because there are plenty of fish in the sea as the saying goes. Back then, there were not as many fish in the sea, and the ones that were usually already had a family. She has some nice houses but no one to share them with(lonely). By the time they hook up, she is living in a tent basically, while taking care of all of his kids that she loves. Benjamin Martin was a great man that won't treat her bad and is of age, I'm just saying I'm not hating them for wanting to have a little bit more than a lonely life and this goes for both Benjamin and the Aunt.
Back then there were no festivals to go to or anything like that it was survival, that's why as soon as boys learned to walk they learned to shoot, families worked together to survive, no running water, no refrigerators. Life was more real back then, no toilet paper or anything.
Just imagine in the winters, being a woman and you have to cut a firewood for winter, hunt, get fresh water and you're alone. Huddled by a fireplace all by yourself. Benjamin is a man and is distracted, while being attracted to her, he is too busy concentrating on everything that he has to do and raising his kids to notice her attraction for him. Until she basically slaps him in the face with it. Given the time, I don't see anything wrong with it.
I'll just finish it off like this let's say you were cutting your firewood one day and you got hurt, and you're alone. No phone no ambulance nobody to help, it's about survival and happiness and I think they made a good choice for themselves and the kids
Especially if it's a genuine attraction for one another, also it's not like his wife died yesterday, it's been years and they are both lonely
“Glory” w/ Denzel Washington is the next obvious choice
Good movie but wrong uniforms, Hollywood is bad in putting calvary rank on all officers and in Glory artillery sashes on the infantry. Red is Artillery, Yellow is calvary and Blue is infantry. This goes for any trim pieces (like pant stripes, sashes) and the base for shoulder rank patches or arm stripes. Most civil war movies makes these mistakes. The excuse in the red sashes was that they looked better on film though anyone with any interest in military history will spot it. The Patriot was historical fiction and doesn't try to be correct except to the period and can be enjoyed as such but those like Glory and Gettysburg while a good history, they really need a historian to point out the errors if used to teach. Then worse are the films by Scott that totally rewrites history, his latest even being banned by the French for butchering Napoleon so bad. His one on the crusades I turned off when King Baldwin IV was placed in a mask that made a point of never hiding his skin condition in the histories.
@11:00 mark, you asked “Where is he from?” Are you referring to the Colonel? You saw him (Jason Issacs) play the NASA Research Scientist Ronald Quincy in the Movie Armageddon.
I find we appreciate things (like history) later in life and are more open to learning stuff we never thought we'd have a desire to learm
You never have to apologize Stef...this is your channel, and if there is something you say that someone watching doesn't like, they don't have to watch your reactions. Thanks for letting us journey with you through some of these films. 🙂
Such a great movie! Much love to you Stef!
When Odo dies i Always cry
I honestly just love watching you experience these movies with the intensity you do. This movie is one of my favorites for sure, and it had some of the best acting I’ve ever witnessed, especially the raw emotion they were all able to portray. I think the movie Ransom is another great portrayal of Mel Gibsons acting prowess, you should check it out 🙂
One of my favorite movies which always makes me think of my dad
I'm new to her reactions, but I have to say whoever edits her videos does a really good job of making HER reactions blend well into the actual movie. Really great job showing her reaction then transitioning back to the movie and so forth.
LMFAO! That was an awesome impression! “You will be a country on to yourself.”
Mel Gibson's breakdown when Gabriel dies is one of the best acted scenes in anything ever IMO.
I like that you didn’t talk much. I prefer it actually except for a comment here and there. It means you were so involved in the story, you zoned in. Thats a good sign.
"You're MY child!" is my favorite line in this movie. So great
I always love it when reactors look to the other screen to assure they got the right expression.
As a Brit, I loved watching this movie as a kid growing up in England. Top movie, great soundtrack too!
Love this movie, this is how this wonderful America got started. People gave their lives for it!!
the way that mell gibson cried in the scene that benjamin was seeing the boddy of gabriel... i'll tell you this... as an actor... i have seem MANY amazing actors crying, but till this point in my life, i have NEVER seen a cry that is as realistic as that one... only someone who lost a very deerly loved one can understand the amount of pain in a moment like that, and mel gibson, defntly have lost someone important in his life... because i cannot imagine that one can act THAT good wighout acctuly understanding the pain... you start rambling, you cant breath, you dont know what to do with your hands, with your eyes, you beg god... it is all there... the only thing that he didnt do was the intense scream of pain... when i loved someone who was very dear to me, i remember that after crying exactly like the way he did in here, i started screaming, screaming as loud as i could, the pain was so big, that it was the only way i could understand how to let it out...
57:46 - I love it when Stef gives us just, a little bit.
TY Stef.
This movie makes everybody cry 😭 I've seen this movie so many times I've lost track and I still tear up at all the scenes that everybody cries at or shocked at especially the John character with the son and wife😢 my favorite line is the Reverend got a 10 to the wolves
Your eyes say more than enough as to what is in your heart and mind and often more than words can say. So, no apology is necessary. We thank you for bearing your true feelings, especially through your eyes.
NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR HOW A FILM OR PEACE OF MEDIA MOVES YOU.!!!! Ok so i drank before i watched your reaction but damn for the years of me knowing of this movie's existence. This movie is the American experience, Yes we ALL (ALL) are free, but that means free to accept fait or free to choose, these movie is free to exosome its own idea what freedom is and the honorability it takes to get us there. watching you watch this hit me in ways I can't explain. thank you for watching this movie!
I really like your reactions to movies because you don’t constantly talk
💯
Plenty of time to talk afterwards....
Tbf many reactors talk because they have to and to make it commentary, otherwise their videos will be taken down.
Young Lady you are magnificent. I watched your review of The Last Samurai “. I watched the movie when it came out and it moved me. I watched your review and had to walk out of the room. You pulled my heart out. Well done. All the best to you.
I always liked this movie, but not too long ago I found out I'm descended from a man who fought with the militia during the war, which makes this more personal, because I can easily picture him as one of Benjamin Martin's men. He was a private whose official designation was the cool-sounding "ranger and spy", but apparently back then that just meant a scout.
the patriot is one of my favorites and I am a history nerd, and this movie gives me a lot of knowledge about the revolutionary war
I love how you just enjoy the movie and let the emotions flow, i know its basically a part of life now to just apologize and say sorry for no damn reason so ill say like everyone else, dont worry about apologizing for letting the films move you. Thats what they are supposed to do, when you connect with the stories that are trying to be told. None the less thank you for the content, its always amazing and you have a great channel its far different than many other reactors and in the best of ways. This movie and the writing , coupled with the beautiful score.. damn it always moves me and brings those tears, even just triumphant happy tears. So good. Love the scene where the "racist" guy finally appreciates and honors his fellow man and understand we are all the same and hes proud to be on the front lines with him. That shit hits different every time. Especially now days with all the propagated division that is forced amongst us. Keep your head up yall and remember we are all in this together. Much love.
34:10 that little “ehee - clap clap clap” is probably the cutest thing I’ve ever seen 😂😂
Watch hacksaw ridge
U share ALL the time Stef.
Sometimes its not spoken.
For those of us who r paying attention, we “hear” u.
Every word.
Your reaction was just right, for this kind of movie. Just right.
Perhaps you should watch -
• "Braveheart"
• "Saving Private Ryan"
• "Hacksaw Ridge"
• "Band of Brothers"
• "The Pacific"
• "The Outpost"
• "Lone Survivor"
Thank you for a nice Reaction 🙂
Next reaction: Dances With Wolves
Here's a bit of a history lesson, since you wish to explore it a bit. Tavington is based on a real person, British General Banastre Tartleton. Tarleton was an aggressive and very ambitious lieutenant colonel, looking for promotion and victory at all costs. He was not quite as evil as Tavington was in the movie, and there is no evidence or claims the the British ever burned a church full of people, because they considered them British citizens. Tarleton returned to England after the war and was elected to Parliment and served for 20 years. Benjamin was loosely based on Francis Marion, known as The Swamp Fox, who frustrated the British in South Carolina with guerrilla tactics, hit and run, similar to what was depicted. Jason Issacs was incredible, and made me hate his character so much when I first watched this that I named the villain in a book I wrote after the character. Not a whole lot of accuracy in the movie, but a banger of a film.
wow susan running to her dad screaming papa.... i admit. i broke. i kinda... sobbed. thats just ouch...
I told myself I'd like to watch a reaction to War Horse! Turned on TH-cam and damn there's Stef doing Patriot 😊😊😊 Let's go!!
I'm a history professor, Stef! What would you like to know about history or the Revolution (one of my specialties...that and the Colonial Period in American History)? And I enjoyed your reaction! I'm glad you enjoyed the movie!
Sarah doesn’t have a lot of lines but she makes up for that with only a few powerful ones.
No worries. The best reactions are when you're lost in the film/material, and they're genuine responses. Don't worry so much about speaking unless it just comes natural in the moment. Authenticity is key, and it's also the easiest to manage, because it's how someone would respond watching it alone in their room. You got lost in this one (another testament to the quality of the film), so this is largely what ended up happening; and in my opinion, these are the BEST reactions. So, great reaction!
I love movies that are long, but don't feel long because they're just so packed with great and impactful moments. This is definitely one of those. Glad you liked it! I've probably seen this over 20 times by now, and it's become pretty much a 4th of July staple. The acting is a straight gut punch, especially Mel's when Gabriel dies. Timeless stuff. Happy Belated Independence Day!
OMG René Auberjonois is playing the reverend who goes with them?! Thats Odo from DS9!!! Oh thats wicked. XD
I cry every time the joker dies. This is one of those movies that doesn't get easier to watch.
The joker? Is he in this?
@@johannesvalterdivizzini1523Benjamin’s eldest son Gabriel is Heath Ledger. Though, it’s weird to refer to him as “the joker”😂
When this movie came out I made fun of the girl screaming for her father. Now that I'm a father I cry like a baby at that scene lol.
Hi Stef , I enjoyed your reaction to patriot !!!
The bar where the daughter says Papa that gives everyone every time they see that scene on this movie😢 Sadly 2 actors from this movie died in real life. Rip Heath and Skye
This movie makes me sad. All of that sacrifice just have people spit on the idea of these brave men, women and children.
I love the part where the British ran over the hill and ran into the Continental line. The American regular army.
Fun historical fact: Charles O’Hara(the guy Cornwallis sent to surrender to George Washington for him) would also end up surrendering to Napoleon Bonaparte(French emperor) years later and while as a prisoner of Napoleon, would befriend Thomas Paine(Author) until his exchange in August 1795.
Your reaction is 100 percent on point that’s how I am every time I watch it
Thanks for posting. I find TH-cam edited vids are much better to watch than Patron. I dont have time to pay money and watch for long. Thank you, I enjoyed....... respect.
Col. Tavington, was the same actor who played Lucius Malfoy Drago 's father in the Harry Potter movies.
It wasnt uncommon for men to marry the sister of their dead wife in this time. Its was to keep the families together.
Awesome reaction of my favorite history movie!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
It's all just fine! Baby, you were into this film. No apology needed. Have some ice cream and just chill!
Stef, I've been to war. One positive thing I can say comes out of war is the bonds of fellowship it creates, at least in us Americans. It creates a brotherhood in us that no one can possibly hope to even begin to understand, unless they had been through it as well. Facing death on a near daily basis changes you and those around you. It is an unbreakable, unshakable, unwavering bond that lasts beyond time amd space.
I think that true for everyone, not just Americans.
It's hard to comment through this one, it is captivating. Great reaction
Susan...she just kills me. Such a great movie! Such fine acting by all!
Susan crying for her father gets me every single time 😭
Great reaction Stef! I think you would really enjoy "12 Angry Men" starring Henry Fonda. If you haven't seen it, I'd love to see your reaction. 👍😀
While this was historical fiction, based a lot on the real Marion AKA the swamp fox, it shows the period and mindset well. If you were bad with history it is often because of bad boring teachers. One you might want to check out to beef up on history is The Fat Electrician (Much is military history but there are some others) He brings interesting stories, some true ones that Hollywood would shy from because they are stranger than fiction. The one on the USS William D. Porter is one that would make a good Mel Brooks style film. You will like A Knights Tale, one of my favs. Based again on a period and the writings of an author who is portrayed in the film.
I really the honesty and bravery in your reaction. Do not apologize for a lack of commentary. Sometimes that is really appreciated in a reaction.
your reaction was great, you seemed to be comprehending everybit of info, it was a real reaction
This movie was a hodgepodge of events that took place during the war. If you are able Prime has a documentary called the First American that gives a really good history lesson of the war and George Washington. Don't worry about your language. Its a form of expression and just shows' you're are passionate and human!
20:10 love how you made fun of the british 😂 .. Texas 🇺🇸
1:57 steff: heath ledger is in this one?
me: start crying due to PTSD
Tarleton was in charge of the British troops at The Cowpens and they got soundly defeated however Tarleton survived the battle and fought wars for the British for quite awhile after the Revolutionary War was over. I don't think Francis Marion was at the battle although a similar strategy was used to sucker the Brits into a three sided kill box.
No need to apologize. Too many talk all through the films and miss a lot or ask questions when if they had just watched they would have had the question answered without having to ask because they talked through it. You Did react with your eyes and emotions more than any words could have conveyed. Your heart being touched was reaction enough, compassion is Always more welcome than a bunch of mindless chatter. You did well! Gods Blessings Always!
It's ok Stef . This is a very complex movie 🎥. Lots of dialogue. It's easy to get lost. But, I think that sometimes the less said the better. We love you 💕 . Don't worry .
Stef's Reactions 🖒
Just subbed! Also really liking that outro music 01:00:46 (Artist - Song ?).
Agree with others on watching "Braveheart".. my all time favorite movie 👑
Hi my love! Mel Gibson made three epic movies, Braveheart, The Patriot and We Were Soldiers. I feel this film the bes!
Definately Stef, there are groups that will rent you dresses like those, do your hair and everything for photo shoots, you should definately do it, maybe even film it for youtube, just say'n.
How you react is far more important how many words you use to do it, and you did this well.
I’m surprised you didn’t recognize Jason Isaac’s as the evil British colonel. He portrayed Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies.
Don't worry about the language. You are so mild compared to a rather large percentage of Streamers. This was a great reaction and it is refreshing to see the raw emotion and you not hold it in or force it and fake it.
@22:09 Truer words were never spoken.
Unless you are a history buff this movie can be rather shocking. It isn't an accurate story of any one person but it is very loosely based on the colonial Francis Marion known as "The Swamp Fox" who organized gorilla militia that held the British in the south and the British Lt. Col. Banastre Tarleton who was given the nickname "Butcher" because of actions by his men when he was de-horsed during an early battle. The final battle was a very loose depiction of the pivotal battle "The Cowpens" which led to the British defeat in the south. A lot of creative license was taken to fill out the story. Good reaction. I think you got it.
