Currently watching Mel Gibson's The Patriot

I've seen plenty of movies about the American civil war but I've never seen anything about the American revolution.
It's giving me Brave Heart vibes.
It's very cool how he's originally half American half Irish and he made such important movies about the history of both countries. He basically faught the British twice in both movies. Very interesting.

I did not realise Mel Gibson made a film about the Irish fighting the British. Which film was that, please?
@LizOwen Brave Heart? Well I barely remember it tbh.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether Braveheart was about the Scots fighting the English. The Irish barely figured and Great Britain did not exist for another four hundred years.
Pity - I'd have liked to see Gibson as an Irishman! :-)
@LizOwen Wait a second I now get why everyone is pissed at me 😂 I confused the two nations the Irish and the Scotish. My bad lol it was an honest mistake. It all makes sense now.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether We all make honest mistakes - but it takes a big man to admit to them!
