Are you only interested in good movies about the Revolutionary WAR itself?
I don't mind an annual viewing of "1776," especially the restored version.
While flipping channels this Independence Day I ran across 1940's "The
Howards of Virginia" with Cary Grant and Martha Scott on Turner Classic
Movies. Not a bad look at the period leading up to the Revolutionary War.
Both of these flicks would be considered GOOD in my book. :)

I don't know. I'll go out on a limb, though, and say that I
can't remember a really good film about the American Revolution.
There have been some bad ones. THE PATRIOT was certainly abysmal, a cartoon
if there ever was one. REVOLUTION was pitiful. I think there
may have been some films set in the period which were OK. I liked
JOHNNY TREMAIN as a kid. I have not seen that in years.
Am I missing something?
