I know this is just a film but damn. The chills as Cromwell said those words. Thinking that this is what they are like today. No longer do they care about the nation. Just thier wee corner of it.
@Patrick Beaudry what I’m about to say you wont the agree with... of them all I say Trump is the least corrupt. He has only been in politics 4 years he doesn’t have the connections for underhand dealings. He hasn’t been in power for decades and decades. Half of the nation and 90% of the media was agaisnt him. But I think he felt he could do some good. That he SAW all the corruption in the Government and felt an outsider could purge that infection from the seats of power. It’s way the Left the most corrupt side of our nation dispise him so
Oliver Cromwell is a more complex person then most people know just by glancing. First he tried to keep Charles I on the throne after they won the civil war as Oliver believed England needed a king. Cromwell on two occasions when his own side called for the kings head , actually stopped them and tried to make the King reconsider to create a more constrained monarchy (more constitutional). Charles I on the other hand believed he had the right to rule anyway he wanted to which would have been okay, except he angered a lot of people. Charles I removed popular social reforms his father created, Married a Catholic who was French and created a tax without parliament consent. Again Charles I ruled completely differently then what his father did, who happened to show more constraint in comparison with parliament. This is not to say Oliver was a nice guy by any means, as when he took power he was too weak to contain the factions in his own government. Leading Cromwell to avoided faction tensions by giving into their demands. This lead to the ban on drinking, and brothels to please members of his puritans brothers when he had "over looked it " . As well as a war in Ireland when both the country and people where weary of bloodshed. At the start it seemed everything he did within his own government was to try and avoid one faction or another starting a coup. One thing Oliver was right about, England needed a King or at least someone strong enough to hold powers in check. Oliver was far from the man to do although he clearly tried. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Cromwell en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_I_of_England

I love this movie! I'm surprised the narrator at the end doesn't say that Cromwell established a military dictatorship after he dissolved Parliament and tried to enforce Puritanism on all of Britain... Great movie none the less!
As I recall,when Charles II returned as King,most of the regicides,still alive, that took part in the trial,were tried themselves and put to death.Cromwell and several others that had died,were dug up, their bodies hung,and then drawn and quartered.
Actually it was King Charles the first that was trying to drain the swamp. Cromwell empowered the swamp and then had to destroy it.... Because he realized he created a monster.
True, they are elected on promises and to serve the people. You do know what treacherous means don't you?. Judging by your reply your knowledge of the English language seems limited to using insults to reply to someone who does not share your views, something that Remainers are quick to accuse others of.

1337penguinman what a ridiculous comment, both those revolutions were completely fuckin different, just because they were revolutions doesn't mean they were identical you dummy.
On the contrary. After the eventual restoration of the Monarchy many of the Puritans fled to New England due to being on the losing side of this conflict. They also brought their ideas of limited and representative government with them. Boston, a city founded by Puritans, was where the American Revolution began. Except this time they won.
Also, after the Restoration, royalists were gunning for the judges and all those who took direct part in the execution of the King. Those responsible fled to the colonies to hide from prosecution. The seeds of revolution were then sown in British North America.
Octavian Caesar Hibernicus Do you not know anything of American history? Cromwell and his ideals laid the very foundations of the constitution of the United States.
With all do respect I say that the foundation for a revolution such as America's was the crucial ideas of the Enlightenment rather than Cromwells England.
The UK is back in the same situation at the moment wire parliament refusing to hold an election and being held accountable for its abuse of the sovereign will of the people.

On 20 April 1653, he dismissed the Rump Parliament by force, setting up a short-lived nominated assembly known as Barebone's Parliament before being invited by his fellow leaders to rule as Lord Protector of England (which included Wales at the time), Scotland, and Ireland from 16 December 1653.[4] As a ruler, he executed an aggressive and effective foreign policy. He died from natural causes in 1658 and was buried in Westminster Abbey. The Royalists returned to power along with King Charles II in 1660, and they had his corpse dug up, hung in chains, and beheaded. Cromwell is one of the most controversial figures in the history of the British Isles, considered a regicidal dictator by historians such as David Sharp,[5] a military dictator by Winston Churchill,[6] and a hero of liberty by John Milton, Thomas Carlyle, and Samuel Rawson Gardiner. His tolerance of Protestant sects did not extend to Catholics; his measures against them in Ireland have been characterized by some as genocidal or near-genocidal,[7] and his record is harshly criticized in Ireland.[8] He was selected as one of the ten greatest Britons of all time in a 2002 BBC poll.[9
I find it so sad that an Amoral man would take the money rather than think deeply about the deeds he has done rather than think about his country of birth.It beggars belief.And I am Scottish through and through, and not of the divisional crowd.GOD HELP US.
Every time i watch this scene i ask myself "What has changed?" Westminster to this day has been filled with career poiliticians whose only true interest is their own long term financial gain.
Powerful Movie 🎬 One can See 100 + Years later In Another Land (U.S.) How we Indured Another King , Our Founding Father's Truely Looked Back @ Cromwell. How We Need to Heed Back @ History ...... AND I MEAN REAL HISTORY AND NOT THIS 1619 DUNG THERE TRYING TO POISION OUR CHILDREN K - 12 WITH !!
Is it possible that just before he disbanded Parliament that he saw the value of having a king or a queen? I kind of get that impression that he saw the value after I realized that when you elect a whole bunch of people, they quite often times break promises and stab their own constituents in the back.
Well he basically became like Charles in the end so yes. Cromwell wasn't a huge reformer like some others in the New Model Army, he wanted to make peace with the King originally but after the 2nd and 3rd English Civil Wars he deemed Charles and all of his bloodline untrustworthy so moved England to being a republic. Also worth noting Parliament in 1650 wasn't exactly democratic the Lords was not inferior to the Commons and the Commons was elected by landholders alone.
They really didn't care about historical accuracy in this film at all huh? Sir Thomas Fairfax wasn't an MP in the Long Parliament. He was Cromwell's superior officer in the New Model Army and it was only Fairfax's retirement that allowed Cromwell to rise to being the supreme political and military leader of England. Certainly not a supporter of the Long Parliament's or the Rump Parliament's power.
There really needs to be a remake make of this film for the 21st century. But it would need a talented combination of people to make it. Who would the right people be I wonder?.
