1776 is a musical celebration of the founding of the United States of America based on the award-winning Broadway production. The story centers around familiar historical characters as they organize a movement for independence from Mother England: the tough and unyielding John Adams (William Daniels); the charming and pragmatic Benjamin Franklin (Howard Da Silva); the brilliant Thomas Jefferson (Ken Howard) who is chosen to write the Declaration of Independence even as he longs for the company of his new bride Martha (Blythe Danner); and the rest of the Continental Congress. All events lead up to that most significant date of July 4, 1776 when the Declaration was signed. Now fully restored for its high definition debut on Blu-ray, 1776 looks and sounds better than ever.

  • No Original Theatrical Cut

    Would have loved to have had the original theatrical cut - as I saw it at Radio City Music Hall as a kid - included on this Blu-ray. There's really no reason why they couldn't have included it, and they have no excuse. Nonetheless, a great movie, and a great (if embellished) insight into our Founding Fathers - if you can look past the lens of 70s politics refocused by the "Director's Cut"...

  • History come to life!

    1776 Director's Cut; This is indeed an excellent film. I actually saw it with my 6th grade class in 1976, and it stuck itself into my memory quite fondly. I've always been a fan of the whole story of the 13 colonel settlements and the fight for independence. Perhaps it was the marvelous celebration and pride throughout the country in 1976 that cemented this story, and others from that historical period, into my brain. Whatever the case, I Love this movie. I have the dvd, but wanted a visual upgrade. And this Blu-Ray doesn't disappoint. Not only does it look and sound outstanding, it has an additional commentary by Director Peter Hunt, Actor William Daniels (Adams) and Ken Howard (Jefferson), and an extended cut of the film. All the previous bonus DVD material and commentary are also included. Extremely happy to add this wonderfully entertaining Historical story of the birth of our Nation to my Blu-ray collection.

  • Great movie!!

    My wife loves history and she taught American History for 42 years and this film highlights the time and place where our Declaration of Independence was born. It is told and filmed in a way that provides history information and the singing just makes it real and brings it to life.
