Answer 1

1. The state was South Carolina (except for Yorktown, Virginia for one short scene in 1781) from the years 1776-1783
2. The assembly in Charles Town (Charleston) was to vote if South Carolina would join in revolt with the other British Colonies to see Independence from British rule.
3. For the War - Britain was treating the colonies unfairly - no taxation with representation. British troops had already fired upon British colonists at Lexington and Concord, MA. The colonist have more in common with themselves than with Britain and had become an American nation.

Against the War - They were British Citizens - they were betraying their homeland - Great Britain. The fight was not South Carolina's issue - it was New England and Virginia's issue - why should they get involved. Many people would die in this fight and it would not be far away, but at their very own doorsteps.

4. The assembly voted to support the colonial cause against the British
5. There was no British General captured in Charleston - Cornwallis and his army was captured in Yorktown, Va.
6. Since they did not have a military force that could beat Cornwallis' army in a general battle - they engaged in a serious of Guerrilla Warfare tactics and raids.
7. These number are not made very clear in the movie - but Cornwallis had under 10,000 men and approximately 2000 Cavalry
8. Cornwall's weakness was his arrogance because he did not respect the colonial millitia - Benjamin Martin realized this after reading the personal papers of Corwallis and his men had taken in one of their guerilla raids of a British Force
9. The militia just to stand and hold their place long enough to fire to shots.
10. Guerilla Warfare is a serious of hit and run attacks and the British attempted to set a trap for the men under the Command of Benjamin Martin - they were successful in capturing a large part of Martin's forces.

Answer 2

Once they've signed the contract with the studio, most authors have little or no say in how the movie turns out. They can say "I won't sign unless Steven Spielburg directs it" or "I want Robert Downey Jr to play the hero" or even "I want a bowl of green M&Ms on the opening night", but if they demand too much, the studio will call their bluff and walk away. There are many more books than movies, so the studios can take their pick of which ones to adapt. With that in mind, this is what I'd like... 1. Live action. The characters are mostly normal-looking humans. 2. It might be nice, but I wouldn't want to go overboard on merchandising. 3. I might visit the set to say "hi" and "break a leg" but I wouldn't visit often. They might think I was trying to take over. Then, too, a movie set is a fairly boring place most of the time. Unless you're on the crew, there isn't much to do between takes. And they do so much in post-production these days that it's hard to know what the finished film will look like. 4. It's not the sort of story that would benefit much from 3D, but at one time, people said the same about colour and widescreen. Eventually, all films will be made in 3D. 5. Not applicable. 6. I doubt I'd be allowed to sit in on the auditions. I'd be astonished if I got any input into the choice of actors. 7. It depends how closely the movie follows the book. I'd like all the main actors to read it, but if a particular actor's character is very different in the movie, reading the book might confuse them. 8. I hadn't really thought about it. My main character is 17, so the actress would probably have to be someone relatively unknown - or someone I haven't heard of, anyway. Again, the author almost never gets any control over who acts in the film - even J K Rowling couldn't get more than a commitment to use British actors for the British characters in her books.
