Re: The Patriot
Like I said, there were *some* good elements. The wigs. Definitely the whigs.

REVOLUTION (1985). See http://us.imdb.com/Title?0089913 It was quite a
stinker, I thought (though some movie buffs now call it "underrated").
Despite its pervasive murkiness and wrong-headedmess, it did have two
visually striking scenes: the Battle of White Plains and the final victory
celebration in New York City, which had a sort of Bruegelesque vitality.
But Al Pacino's character, with his New Yawk accent, was supposed to be
SCOTTISH. I kid you not.

_The Patriot_ sounds like a relatively good movie in comparison to a
turkey about the Revolutionary War that starred Al Pacino (!) as one of
the colonists. I believe the latter was released in the late 1970s or
early-mid 1980s. Does anyone recall its title?
