The "John Adams" movie I Watched Twice

I rarely watch the same movie twice.  But, the HBO seven part series, John Adams, was an exception.  Both my wife and I thought the drama (2008), based on American Revolution history, was as compelling of a historical presentation as any that we have watched.

 

If you combined watching the HBO series with viewing the superb PBS piece John and Abigail, you'll have a real glimpse into the lives of this founding father and his wife, who served as his only political confidant when he was president.

 

(You may want to fast forward through a breast surgery scene that, in my view, was unnecessarily gruesome.)
