Very dramatic and historically informative with a great deal of drama to the story line.

I enjoyed this movie because it attempted to portray the events that took place when I was just a child and only heard of from others. My children (age 13 and 8) enjoyed it and at times asked questions. I had to explain it to them that these events really took place, maybe not exactly as seen here, but it did happen. I think all children who can comprehend right from wrong should watch this.
