About Johnny Tremain:
- “It was the ‘shot heard ‘round the world’ when the first battle of the American Revolution began in a small town of Massachusetts in April 1775, fought between British soldiers and a small local militia gathered to resist – and engage if necessary – in a show of defiance for British authority. Walt Disney originally intended the impressively mounted 1957 production to be aired in two parts on television but opted to release Johnny Tremain into theaters instead.”
- “Based on Esther Forbes’ famed children’s tale about young Johnny Tremain, then apprentice to a silversmith in Boston in the years prior to the war, the film covers events including the Boston Tea Party and Paul Revere’s famous ride as Tremain becomes wrapped up in the underground colonial struggles leading inexorably towards armed conflict.”
