This is really a review of some of the other reviews...This movie is based on actual historical events that happened in Tennessee in 1946...It might be sappy or banally written, but it is taken from actual history...Of course creative license is taken with the story, but basically it is a true story. If you want action and adventure with award winning kudos, this may not be for you...But if you are interested in what actually happened/happens in our history, this is a good story. I really enjoyed it myself..I was going to provide a link to more historical information about the actual incident, but this software won't accept the link...It say's the spelling is wrong....So, just use your search engine and search for "Battle of Athens"...It actually happened in 1946 in the state of Tennessee...I hope you enjoy the movie and find the information interesting.
