John Adams

I watched the first two segments of John Adams on HBO last Sunday night and I was extremely impressed. In fact, the reason we have HBO, at least briefly, is because I saw some trailers for John Adams and, the more I saw, the more intrigued I became. So, I subscribed to HBO so I could watch it. And I'd pleased I made the decision to do so. I just found a website address for it...I encourage you to take a look.

I had never had a deep interest in U.S. history until I began to sense that what I once considered our way of life from now on was threatened...thanks primarily to George Bush, but with some help from a bunch of nutcase religious zealots based in Afghansistan.

But, watching the first few minutes of John Adams, I developed a keen interest in history. I know the film is artificial and interpretive, but I believe it reflects the life of the late 18th century very well.

Have any of the other two of you watched it?
