DVD Reviews of Johnny Tremain

DVD Review: Great for History Class
Summary: 4 Stars

The video was perfect for my junior high history class. Something different than a normal history video. Would recommend to anyone looking for history around the Revolutionary War or Boston Tea Party.

DVD Review: Johnny Tremain
Summary: 5 Stars

My students loved the movie. It was a great way to inforce all the concepts we learned about the beginning of the American Revolution.



DVD Review: Skip the VHS- go for the DVD!
Summary: 5 Stars

My students love to watch this film and the "Liberty Boys" are portrayed so kids can understand how difficult it was for colonists to stand up to their own government.
Every year I show this film to my students and every year they enjoy it. I'm so glad I bought it on DVD, so I can use it for the many years to come.

DVD Review: Tremain - Disney formula still works to create interest in kids
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought the Johnny Tremain movie to show my 10 and 8 year old boys not only about history of our great land, but a bit of how my interest in history began as a young boy, and explain how we watched television back in the 60's. Entertainment was different then, and how life was different for their parents. They loved the movie, the timeless film helped them understand our nations' beginning, and is well worth the price. Outstanding!

DVD Review: Johnny Tremain
Summary: 3 Stars

It would appeal more to someone my age who watched it as a child. Today's kids would not get it at all.

Description of Johnny Tremain

Return to the days that sparked the American Revolution, now on Disney DVD for the first time! Meet young Johnny Tremain, a silversmith's apprentice with dreams of learning the trade and making his own way. When a terrible injury ends his hopes, he joins the emerging Sons Of Liberty. The Redcoats are coming as you journey back to the Boston Tea Party, the midnight ride of Paul Revere, and Lexington Green, where tyranny was vanquished by an idea -- freedom for all! Based on the classic novel by Esther Forbes, you won't want to miss one historic moment of Disney's classic adventure and liberty's rising light.
Looking for a way to make the American Revolution come alive for your child? Based on Esther Forbes's book of the same name, Johnny Tremain takes place in Boston from July?1773 through April?1775, and tells the story of a young apprentice silversmith drawn into a fight for human rights. When an accident cripples Johnny Tremain's hand and ends his hopes of becoming a great silversmith, Tremain finds himself without work and accused of a crime he did not commit. Sons of Liberty members Paul Revere and Josiah Quincy are outraged by the circumstantial case against Tremain, agree to represent him free of charge, and win his acquittal in court. Through association with his new friends, Tremain begins to better understand the current political climate, and eventually joins them in the battle for freedom. Tremain's involvement in the emptying of British tea into Boston Harbor, the arrival of the Redcoats in Boston, and the beginnings of the American Revolution at Concord is powerful and moving. The costuming is splendid, the music patriotic, and the dialogue well crafted. The film stars Hal Stalmaster as Johnny Tremain, costars Luana Patten and Jeff York, and runs 80?minutes. This classic Disney film is wonderful entertainment and a fairly faithful representation of a crucial period in American history. (Ages 8 and older) --Tami Horiuchi
