The summary report of The Patriot
This semester,we watched the movie named "The Patriot".It's very touching for me.The story was happened in 1870s,the beginning of the Independence War of America.
In the 1850s,Washington.Jefferson and numerous other founders
acknowledged that slavery was incompatible with the principle that all men are created equal and it still required a terrible Civil War to abolish the
contradiction between principle and practice. But without the commitment the Founders had made to the proposition that all men are created equal, it would have been impossible to mobilize a national majority against slavery.
On the background,The Patriot distills the essence(本质) of the nobility, sacrifice, and suffering necessary to found and keep such a Republic. In the movie, Benjamin Martin, a French-Indian war hero who is haunted by his past, is a patriot who wants no part in a war with Britian. Meanwhile, his two eldest sons, Gabriel and Thomas, can't wait to go out and kill some Redcoats. When South Carolina decides to go to war with Britain, Gabriel immediatly signs up to fight...without his father's permission. But soon, Colonel Tavington, British solder infamous for his brutal tactiks, captures Gabriel and sentences him to be hanged. As Gabriel is taken away, Thomas tries to free him, only to be killed by Tavington, in front of Benjamin. Now, seeking revenge for his son's death, Benjamin leaves behind his 5 other children to bring independence to the 13 colonies.
