Allegheny Uprising (1939)

Trailer here. This b/w John Wayne movie - also known as 'The First Rebel' tells the story (well in a Hollywood fashion) of the Black Boys Rebellion led by James Smith during the 1760s. Wiki on the movie here. I am not a huge fan of this movie and it didn't fare too well at the time either but there are some good bits but not many.

  1. Dear Somerset,
    I agree, not a quality film but it does feature George Sanders as a British officer and thus cannot be completely condemned!
