Revolution (1985)
AbenteuerDramaHistorieKriegsfilm
Hugh Hudson beweist mit diesem Film einmal mehr sein geübtes Auge, wenn es darum geht, vergangene Epochen in Szene zu setzen. Die Gründung der USA mit dem Sieg über die britischen Kolonialherren ist hier das große Thema und wird aus der persönlichen Perspektive eines Mannes und seines Sohnes dargestellt. Dabei setzt Hudson auf eine realistische, dreckige Darstellung, die etwa in herbem Kontrast zu Emmerichs "Der Patriot" steht. Wo "Der Patriot" großes epochales Kino ist, ist "Revolution" die dreckige Wahrheit.
