1776 (VHS, 1991)

We have seen this film ( and a stage production ) many times but have always rented it or borrowed it from the library. Because it has so many historical elements to it, I like to share it with any young people I know. It puts a more human face on the beginnings of our nation. Because it is a musical and has so much humor in it, I want to see it again and again.

This is the worst dealing I've ever had on Ebay. It has really turned me off purchasing on Ebay and I haven't since dealing with this guy. I received this item and after watching only a short piece of it I left feedback for[audiovideo4less] Item#330235121032. The feedback was positive. This was my mistake that I will never do again. My problem is I trust people and this guy Can't be Trusted which I found out in the weeks since. The tape ended midway through the show. I emailed this seller telling him it was not a complete tape and requested a complete refund or another Complete tape. He refused to answer my Many requests for him to honor this sale. Finally, I filed a dispute with Ebay and still got No Results. I have been watching his list [audiovideo4less] site and have seen No change where Ebay may have gottton involved so to date I consider the Dispute process a waste of my time. This seller did not Honor his contract and should be made to refund the money and Ebay should deal Harshly with him. I respectfully invite Ebay and any others to view My Feedbacks. You will see that I deal honestly and fairly with people and expect the same in return. This seller-audiovideo4less- is someone thats gives Ebay a bad name. I would not recommend this seller to any Ebay buyer. I will continue to email this character every chance I can until full restitution is received. It's not about the lousy money anymore [$9.79] It's about being Honest and being Fair. This seller is Neither.. And I expect Ebay to stand behind its policy and rid the fine people that want to see Ebay succeed of dishonest people like this...jglord@pa.net

I needed this movie for my Social Studies class. I remember watching it when I was in school, and knew that it would boost their interest in the Declaration of Independence, and it did!! Thanks for such a quick sale.

I love the music, book and lyrics in this show. I love to see the history unfolding. It is unimaginable to me the courage that it took for these people (our people!)- to demand their independence. The brilliance of Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Ben Franklin, etc, is amazing! There are wonderful love stories, and the music, again is quite memorable!

Who ever thought you could learn history from a musical. Certain-lee you can. As the title implies the story centers around the writting and publishing of the Declaration of Independence. William Daniels as John Adams, Howard da Silva as Franklin head a great cast. Daniels through his performance steals the show. He is outstanding. The music though sometimes disjointed and out of place does a good job of conveying the underlying emotion in the scenes. I was impressed while watching this movie that writers and composers did not shy away from dealing with all the conflicting issues that went into the Declaration document itself. The handling of the slavery issue showed that the compromises made then would come back to haunt our nation's history later. This is a great flick.
