Midnight Ride of Paul Revere (clip)

Based on the poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, this animated program gives viewers a sense of the historical circumstances of this crucial event at the start of the American Revolution. Longfellow's potent imagery and heart-racing mood put the viewer on the horse with Paul Revere, sharing the images and the importance of the mission.

"An excellent way to culminate a unit on Longfellow or to begin a unit on the American Revolution."-- ABCCLIO Video Rating Guide for Libraries. Produced by Sharon Hoogstraten Productions. A Coronet release. 10 minutes color.

@SquireDonCristobal You may or may not be right but one thing for sure is you are not going to change peoples perception that Paul Revere was an American hero.

Paul was a failure...he got arrested on his "grand ride" and was released but the British confiscated his horse (showing how worthless they thought him), it was largely due to his actions that the Americans lost so catasrophicly at fort George.

@ErnstBecker i would have used a word more along the lines of "deplorable", but whatevs...

[FlashYes1]

Where's the part where he rings the bells to warn the British?
