  • Release Year: 1905
  • Genre: Short
  • Plot: A very famous American painting is "The Spirit of '76" by Archibald Willard. It's so famous that it was featured in a set of three stamps back in 1976 and is one many Americans would probably recognize. It features three men who are supposed to be from the Colonial army who are playing two drums and a fife to commemorate some Revolutionary battle scene. It's all highly idealized and was created about 1875. In the film "Spirit of '76", filmmakers from the Edison Company thought is would be exciting to bring this painting to live. Well, they were wrong. It was neither exciting nor inspiring--after all it was a painting. The three march in place for a LONG time then they march off and then they return and march in place again. At the end, some bloke comes up behind them waving an American flag. And, the film probably succeeded in making children around America hate history. Dull and seemingly pointless.
