Colonel Tavington

[conday1990]

the redcoats were always cooler than the patriots.

[HanBOHobbit]

Shame they cut these from the original cut. His expressions give away the humanity that's still buried somewhere beneath "The Butcher." I think he really does feel remorse for some things he's done, but we can't be sure without scenes like this that show us the whole story.

Of course, I might only be saying such things because Jason Isaacs is drop dead gorgeous and his handsomeness controls me. If Tavington had been played by some ugly bloke we knew nothing about, would we be on his side? ;D

[CAOIMHEstuff]

We are watching this in History and when he shot Mel's son I was like Tavingotns hot and everyone glared at me :D

[majordbag2]

Isn't that the guy who they based Tyber Zahn's from Star Wars Forces of Corruption appereance on?

[PearlPieceShippuden]

@majordbag2 Yup that's him! Jason Isaacs : )

[IdiotWithMovieMaker]

lol the part when he's looking at the fire flies reminds me of my dog when hes catching flies to eat XD lol I giggles constantly

[ds29gurl]

these scenes make him seem almost human

[elasolezito]

Tavington ! Damn him ! Damn that man !

in real life he was a good soldier but he is famous for his bloody tactics :)

[56LC]

It seems like he was Gibson's counterpart among the British, an outsider (A Custer type anti-hero). His bloody war tactics probably were not welcome by the more old fashioned British Command, but they were necesary unfortunally against the non-traditional guerrilla tactics of the American colonists led by Gibson's character. The film was overly bias against him and depicted him as a cruel character, but I am sure that the colonists treated British Royalists the same way during the war too.

@elasolezito he was called Tarleton btw

[CUCKOO9999]

@killerrj8 yes Banastre Tarleton :)

[xmrsxmalfoyx]

And this is the reason why I need to buy the extended cut. Tavington is drop dead gorgeous. I love him <3

[LadyCath1]

Lol, good investment ;-)

[LadyCath1]

I meant, the extended dvd

[ScandinavianQueen]

@xmrsxmalfoyx You really should, it is very good (i have it)

[MalevolentAbsol]

@xmrsxmalfoyx I agree with you he is

[lildwayne21]

I really enjoyed General Charles O'Hara and Lord Cornwallis in this movie. They both did a fantastic job.

[skumringbegravelse]

He shouldve been nominated for an Oscar.

[fiordaliso11]

Yes too hot !!!!!!

[babykatie11]

I love him! He is so sexy in this movie.

;)

[bubblesbaby37]

here here...lol

[adamjohnwest]

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Is that last scene after the battle of Cowpens, or Camden? I thought he died after Cowpens.

[quest8899]

The English act like rich people.

[Hogzilla31]

Those English are rich people. They are commanders

[LiviJones]

I live in Oregon (no lightning bugs) and visited family in West Virginia last summer. I reacted the same way he did to the lightning bugs. I was in awe!

[LadyCath1]

Thks Lil Blue! :-)

[TheBlueRose2008]

I feel so sorry for Tavvy...he's not bad, just misunderstood!5 stars

Lil Blue. ;~]

[DeadlyElegance]

poor tav. he is picked on all the time! i love the fly thing

[MalfoyGrandma77]

That is a really interesting view of Tav. Looking at the beauty of the fireflies, the way his face changes. I love those scenes too of Cornwallis. That actor is certainly good in that role. So arrogant!

[MalfoyGrandma77]

Wonderful to share these two special scenes showing Jason Isaacs at his very best, subtle, hurt, carefully controlled! Ah, our beloved beautiful Tavington! thank you from all who could not find the disc with these lovely small scenes of such character!

[LadyCath1]

Thank you dear Milady, for your kind comment! Yes, scenes like these, will add extra depth to this character.

[annmorrison]

That's true...the movie needed more scenes like these.
