Title: John Brown a Role Model
Review: An undercurrent theme of the movie is a man who would give his life so black men may be free from slavery. Such a man must be insane. John Brown was a religious zealot. Who believed serving God was man's ultimate purpose. That meant God before family members. That meant training his children to give up their lives so other men may become free.This movie depicts Mr. Brown as a mad man. The Earl Flynn character says he is against one man taking the law into his own hand. Yet he is depicting Jeb Stuart who joined the Confederate Army who were in open rebellion against the United States of America, because he did not like the election result. In support of nullification of a National election. I will take John Brown's treason over Jeb Stuart's anyday. This movie is sympathetic to one of the worst causes ever fought.
