Looks ok.

The Story of Marie le Roy and Barbara Leininger, told by them.
They tell that the Allegheny treated them well, of Meeting a lot of other captives, French officers/soldiers and english soldiers/officers.
A interesting but sometimes brutal Story.

I don't think this will hit the cinemas here. It will probably be available here on DVD in a year or so.

It doesn´t look like the sort of film that would make it into the cinemas here..not quite profesional looking enough..in fact, looking at the youtube advert again, I think the trees were less wooden than the actors. The English lord´s Accent is very funny and the german farmers :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
"ja vee are blessed here"
As Bennos says, a "sunday afternoon film" along with a couple of beers, well worth getting out on DVD

You mean "ze trees vere less vooden zhen ze aktors". :mrgreen:

It's definitely a B film, but for historical fans they're usually quite enjoyable. I think it's because of the *ooh shiny uniforms!* effect. It's just not something the "main public" of cinemas would enjoy. I would watch it though. *Shiny uniforms!* :-D
