1776 (1972 film) The Lees of Old Virginia w/ Reprise 1080p

- čas přidán 3. 07. 2015
- I don't own this, certain-lee. Happy 4th of July 2015. This is from the longer 3 hour version. In the Director's cut, the scene immediately cuts after Richard Lee rides off screen the first time.
Ronald "Ron" Holgate won the Tony Award for Best Supporting Actor as Richard Henry Lee in the original Broadway production of 1776. He reprised his role in the 1972 film.
Director Peter S. Hunt praised Holgate's great energy and ability to ride horseback while lipsyncing to the musical playback while continuing to act for the film. Holgate performed all horseback riding in the scene except for the first exit off screen, which featured a stunt double mounting the horse by jumping on it from behind.
The horse deserved an oscar
+Sasha Carrillo The horse got a better deal then the bear.
Sasha Carrillo especially when Lee jumped on the horse and it didn't buck.
Sasha Carrillo yes yes yes yes
They were going to consider him, but when asked if he wanted the award, he just said "nay."
Sasha Carrillo true
When I was little I literally thought this was the actual founding fathers, like the entire musical was a live recording from the 1770s.
So did you think that everyone just sang randomly back then? Or that this was staged for the cameras like 1700s reality TV? Because either way that's adorable.
@@beek.4860 I thought it was the norm to spontaneously break out into song; I am guilty of doing it myself at recess. One time I sang a musical number to myself about how I just want one day to be allowed to play with my crush.
I love that!
@@diolaneiuma215 I also went through the exact same childhood phase of narrating my life through impromptu musical numbers on the playground... and at home... and everywhere I went. Now I'm pursuing theatre as a career. I guess I didn't grow out of that phase.
The costumes were out of this world!
He was arguably the finest minor character in the flick.. But I do agree the horse deserves consideration for an Oscar
Hats off to the horse, as its IQ bests most of your founding fathers.
@@sirphineasluciusambercromb9114 hehe america bad amirite?????? 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣✔✔✔👍👍🔥🔥
Sir Phineas Lucius Ambercrombie, Esq.
Bruh . . . you must either have something against America today or dislike the Founding Fathers . . .
I think it is the former, and that distaste extends to saying stuff about the Founding Fathers, even if you already know that they were brilliant and intelligent people (and racist and sexist and homophobic - though I know one of them was secretly bisexual, don’t know about the others, and several of them were abolitionists - and all that). It’s okay to dislike them, but it’s undeniable that they were incredibly intelligent.
Don’t worry, man. I too have something against America, and I live here, so I’m in the middle of this mess, heh. Do you live here, too? Maybe we together can start a petition or something, a petition to make the office of president only available to intelligent people, like maybe with a test or something, as a starting point in calling for the much needed sweeping changes.
I’m against the blatant racism here, to name one of the most prominent problems we face. Thank our President for that one, and those who supported and enabled him to go around saying the most awful things about anybody who isn’t white, male, and straight. That guy is so insanely racist, sexist, and homophobic, it is, well, insane. His being openly disgusting has encouraged the other awful people in our country to do the same, and the situation is bad, to say the least, especially when one portion of the media is controlled by the president’s people and only adds to the flames, as well as spreads outrageous and dishonest misinformation and mistruths. The only way to ever know what is really going on is to go straight to the sources, to the journalists, but journalists are being threatened by big companies taking over their newspapers, both printed and online, and laying tons of them off . . . the day we lose journalism is the day we lose any hope of knowing what’s really going on - man, it is so weird how America is at once a super progressive country and a really backwards one.
I’ve heard some people call America a third world country with a Gucci belt, and honestly, with the way the ignorant masses are behaving here, that phrase, though I hate to say it, seems fitting enough for my country. We need sweeping changes to our school systems, and we’ve needed them for a long while, but even if all students and teachers agree on this, those with the power to change things seem to just sit around every day doing nothing at all except scheming up ways to make more money and reinforcing the rules they’ve laid out for us that clearly have not, do not, and will never work.
Oh - sorry, looks like I went off on a long tangent. Anyway, the Founding Fathers were obviously super intelligent and wise when it came to government (even with all the crap they did in their personal lives *I’m looking at your slaves guys, and you, whom I won’t name, for raping your slave, and you, whom I will also not name, for secretly getting into bed with someone you shouldn’t have for over a year, to name just a few of the things y’all did* ), so if you dislike some aspects of America, then go ahead - you _should_ dislike the problems, adamantly so, but uh you know our Founding Fathers weren’t dumb hehe. Actually, some of them did silly things, so I guess that just like America is at once progressive and racist, they too were at once incredibly intelligent and progressive and racist. But not dumb. Heh.
@@that0nerandomperson374 We seem to agree, to an extent, on the founding fathers. Not so much in recent events.
As someone who actually does their research, Trump has multiple times, throughout the years, come out against racism. Look up the 2000 interview with Trump explaining that the reason he decided against running as the reform party candidate for president was because David Duke had just joined them. (Btw, David Duke backed Biden in 2020). The oft-repeated “good ppl on both sides.” quote was seriously taken out of context. Go listen to the full press conference. He was talking about those peacefully protesting against the taking down of statues and those peacefully counterprotesting them. He outright condemns Neo nazis and white nationalists there. As for sexism, explain to me why there were many women in high positions in his administration, such as the UN ambassador and how believing that abortion is murder translates to being sexist when millions of women across the country believe the same. As to homophobic, he believes in traditional marriage. He believes a church shouldn’t be forced to go against their tenants and marry a same sex couple. Many churches will. Marriage is a holy sacrament. Now I believe civil unions should be raised up in law to have the same rights as a married couple and I’m surprised no one has thought to do so.
Now I’m not gonna defend everything the man said. He tweeted out a bunch of stupid crap. Trump was crass, crude at times, and only showed respect when it was shown to him, which wasn’t often. I’m not gonna defend the “grab em by the____” thing. But, after some posturing, he managed to quell down N. Korea for awhile without lifting any sanctions. He negotiated the Abraham Accords which brought some stability across the Middle East. He pulled our troops out of unnecessary engagements, including setting the date for withdrawal from Afghanistan as May 1, 2021, which Biden pushed back, ticking off the parties we made that agreement with. He made us energy independent for the first time in ages, and we had a mostly safe border.
As to the founders, I will name names. Jefferson only ever released 4 slaves, thought to have been his own children. Franklin was a womanizer. His son, referenced by him in the movie as “the little bastard” was, in fact, a bastard child born out of wedlock, but the man was also an abolitionist. While not to the same extent, so was John Adams. The man butted heads with Jefferson many times over the years. Jefferson started the Democratic-Republicans, who later dropped the last bit and were just known as the Democrats. I have no clue what you’re talking about, calling one of them Bi. The term wasn’t even a thing for over a century and a half, at least. But regardless. We agree they were brilliant men. I consider Abigail Adams as the first true American Feminist, fighting for equality. John certainly thought of her as such.
@@that0nerandomperson374 AW, SHUT THE HELL UP!!! IF YOU HATE AMERICA SO MUCH YOU'RE FREE TO LEAVE AND GIVE YOUR HOUSE TO ONE OF THE IMMIGRANTS!! I HEAR GOV HOCHEL IS LOOKING FOR HOMES FOR THEM!
AMERICA IS THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WHOLE WORLD!! SO WE'RE IN A SLUMP, THAT'S HAPPENED BEFORE. AS SOON AS BIDEN IS GONE WE'LL GET RIGHT BACK UP AGAIN!!! AND IF YOU DON'T THINK SO GET OUT!!!!!
GIOD BLESS THE USA FOREVER!!
I love when he sings "May my horses turn to glue" the horse looks back at him like "Wait a minute! Can we discuss this?!"
I love how the lyrics “here a Lee, there a Lee, everywhere a Lee-a-Lee” is officially a meme in the historic community.
I kind've love that Adams is so fed up by the end of the reprise that he doesn't even care that he's in the fountain anymore, and tries to wade over and take a swing at Lee as he rides off. xD
I'm amazed John didn't drag him down from the horse and strangle him.
m3rryongstr3ss ha I feel the same
I never saw the reprise before! Love it!
I’m amazing he didn’t give him detention!
Yup same that was beautiful! XD
"Spoken modest-lee, God help us"
Fox Creek Meadows he will!
They say god in heaven, is everybody's god! (Amen!) I'll admit that god in heaven IS EVERYBODY'S GOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!
But I tell ya, John, with pride
That god leans a lil’ on the side
Of the LEES! The LEES OF OLD VIRGINIA!
Oh good god
@@seanurbik2689 if only that were true today!
Why don't we have fun movies like these anymore? This looks like the actors actually enjoyed performing in it.
Because the people in charge of making movies aren’t interested in making amazing works of visual performing arts anymore. They just want to make money (but they’re starting to fail at that too)
Indie film is where its at
It doesn’t make a whole lot of money that’s why.
Franklin's face on "full-bosomed" is perfection.
Absolutely. He is the authority on bosoms.
EVERONE IN THE FILM ( AND ON STAGE) HATE DESILVA
@@wsddrama8735 Why?
Full 🅱ossomed 🅱enjy.
I can guarantee that one needed a few takes to do right
I played Richard Henry Lee himself in sixth grade and it was certain-LEE a fantastic and one of a kind experience
I’m guessing, though, that you weren’t singing as a baritone.
N I C E
Indubitab-LEE
Must have been a delightful experience Sure-LEE
This song was wonderful-LEE done.
RHL: "And may my horses turn to glue!"
Horse: "The hell, you say!"
*kermit the frog voice* "the heck you say!"
1776 is a very static musical; here the director used South Dakota native Holgate's competence as a horseman to great effect. Sure, it's lip-synched to a tape, and the final vault into the saddle is by a double, but Holgate on horseback hits every mark and remains in delightful comic character throughout. Impressive.
I believe I read that Holgate was also trained in Opera, which had to help his singing. Daniels apparently grew up singing as well.
Well put
@@amadeusamwater Holgate performed in operas as did at least two other cast members- John Cullum (briefly) and Ray Middleton, the actor of Colonel McKean who doesn't have a solo line to sing.
@@kennethwayne6857 Back in the 50s and 60s, many of the actors in movie musicals were stage actors. That's why the quality of the movies was high. Stage work is the best training an actor can have.
@@amadeusamwater Absolutely true!
I swear this song cured my depression all on its own
hahahahaha
He's so into it. I can't help but sing along
me too
Anne Marie E. Not you, that’s me!
if you can help but sing along, then you aren't human lol
It’s one of those songs in a musical that can be so corny that if you do anything less than fully devote to it and chew the scenery when you perform it you risk being laughed at rather than laughed with.
Fun fact: this is the same fountain later used for the opening credits of "Friends"
I was literally just wondering that. Looking at the dates and production companies and such. Makes sense considering how much outdoor work they had for this movie and how it had to be period-appropriate.
As well as Hocus Pocus.
Also right across the street from the Griswold Christmas Vacation house. But, it has been relocated to the main Warner studios so it can be seen in tours.
It’s part of the Universal back lot “town square.” Sometimes the set is dressed with the fountain and other times it is missing (of disguised) based on the needs of the production.
really? in that case, a lot of screen gems productions in the 60s filmed there - you can see it in bewitched, the monkees, hazel...
My favorite song in the musical. I just love how much energy this guy has.
I love this and Sit Down, John. The others, not so much.
@@zacharysiple783 he plays the violin is beautiful
@@livelaughlove0209 Sure, it's good, but I don't love it as much as those 2.
I think he won a Tony for portraying Lee on Broadyway.
For pure pathos, though, it is “Mama, Look Sharp,” that delivers the grave consequences of what is about to unfold.
I watched this in school and when he was leaning on the fountain the whole class started chanting “fall, fall, fall.”
Omg I just wheezed 🤣
Children are so pure and innocent, aren’t they?
You mean Lee-ning on the fountain?
I can’t take this guy serious-LEE.
lol
That’s the point
;~;
You responded to this video quite humorous-LEE!
Oh Real-LEE? ;-D
this is the best horse i have ever seen
Almost as good as Lee Marvin's in Cat Ballou. Marvin always said the horse was partially responsible for his Oscar.
I don't think his horse liked that line about horses turning to glue!!!
I thought the same thing
“Oh why didn’t I think of that?”
Honestly, Ben Franklin is the best part of this film.
Ben Franklin is the best part of the history of the United States.
There is an unused song written for Hamilton and sung by Franklin. It got left out because Lin-Manuel Miranda realized you literally could not put Franklin in a story without him stealing the spotlight. (He gave the lyrics to the Decemberists to record, and the song is delightful.)
And to think he was such a prima donna that he was nearly fired during the first week of filming. He had to practically beg the director to keep his part.
How come we can't have fun movies like this anymore? I would pay good money to have a movie where it looked like the actors had fun filming
I wish I had half the energy Lee has. Lol! My sister and I have done the whole "lee" thing whenever we talk.
khfan4life365 I can picture Jim Carrey playing this magnificent-LEE!!!!
Likely on amphetamines or cocaine.
I love the reactions on Franklin and Adams when Lee appears out of the bushes XD
This real-lee is a good song
"I'll just stop off at Stratford long enough to refresh the misses and then straight to the matter!"
I always smile at that line...
He reminds me of Tigger, even down to the color scheme😂
Mercy Waterfield Yep. With Franklin as Winnie the Pooh and Adams as Rabbit 😂
@@polyhymnia701 Nah Franklin was definitely Owl.
I cannot believe I haven’t seen that before. 😂
We watched this is S.S and I said this exact thing!!!
funnily enough, parts of this song remind me of parts of "round my family tree" from the tigger movie - sung by (who else) tigger! 😂
Ahh for the days in Hollywood when you could find a guy who could ride a horse at full gallop while belting out an operatic tenor.
You do realize that they don't record the singing at the same time they are acting. Usually the music and song is recorded ahead of time. So no, he wasn't belting out an operatic tenor while riding a horse. He was lipsyncing to his prerecorded voice.
according to imdb triva that was his first time, also that fountain was the same one used in friends
@@joshjhutton my freakin Gods, you come off as a completely pedantic, tiny person (no offense to the little folk out there (deliberate lol) Total shmuck
@@joshjhutton Hey I don't see you riding or lypsyncing to credit to the guy who did :P
Agreed, except that Ron Holgate was (and probably still is) very much a baritone and even sang a few bass-baritone roles in operas.
Ronald Holgate, both in film and on Broadway’s stage, played this roll impeccably. There is no better. The obnoxious, ludicrous primary who feels he can change the world. And, can with his colloquial personality and humility. A triumph in performance. Richard Henry Lee would have been exactly like this!!!
Or, shall I say, "exact-Lee"!
There has never been a doubt in my mind - this show should be made a part of all school’s curriculum - every last one.
I love how he suddenly appeared from the bushes like the velociraptor hunting them from Jurassic Park
The horse performed so handsome-Lee and deserved his own Oscar. The actor playing Richard Henry Lee wasn’t too bad either. A very humorous-Lee performance!
I LOVE this song from 1776!!! A PROUD Virginian!!!
I am watching this on Independence Day 2021. I watch this on every Independence Day as a tradition that I started.
I serious-Lee LOVE this movie!! Watch it every July 4th!
Its hard yo find how did you find it
Typed in a search for “Is Anybody There?” You can search for 1776 too.
@@horationelson9754 TCM shows it every year. It's a 4th of July tradition in my family.
John: Stop....please
Ben: No keep going lol!
Ben lol'd before it was popular...lol
John: stop puh-LEE-se
The irrepressible Ron Holgate showing his wonderful baritone on full display!
John Adams is my spirt animal.
I'd probably be the same way around my Henry Lee type friends if they started singing
I'm fortunate to have seen Ron Holgate in both 1776 and as Miles Gloriosus in the original cast of "A Funny Thing Happened...." I'm happy to report he's still alive at age 80.
Both are great shows!
So glad to hear that! I am currently playing in the pit for Forum, was checking out the original cast album, was struck by the stunning voice of Miles Gloriosus, thought he sounded familiar, and sure enough....he's Richard Henry Lee! Spectacular singing and energy from this great performer!
And there I thought he left then suddenly came back,
What kind of dark magic is this.
I guess he acted eeri-lee
Mysterious-Lee
unpredictab-lee
Strange-Lee
Weird-lee
It's the horse coming out of the bushes during the reprise for me 🤣
I love when he says "forward! ONNNN!!!" It sounds so nice
Sir Christoper Lee!
A wizardly Lee!
Indeed we fortunately
Got to watch that Lee!
As he formidably
Did many a film for you and me!
God bless this video quality
I oughtta beat you up for that. It'd be dead-lee.
Possib-lee, my friend.
I know right.
It is said that God leans a little on the Lees.
Instead of me
We got Richard Lee.
Gets to show off his ideas,
"I'm so talented. WEEEEE!"
Yes.
Every time I see this clip I wonder how much fun someone had writing the lyrics for it.
I have to say, Richard Henry Lee reminds me of Gaston XD
BeruBara4Ham It's all the red clothing with dark hair, I think. Richard here has a great deal more energy and is a much nicer guy.
Well you’re gonna LOVE this: I saw a professional production of 1776 in Goodspeed, Connecticut, and Richard H was INDEED played by the man who original-LEE voiced Gaston in the 1991 BATB movie! And it was FABULOUS-LEE GLORIOUS.
NOOOOO ONE wins like a Lee, gets it in like a Lee, gives a reason to leave from Britain like a Lee!
My God, just imagine the crossover...
Albeit a nicer version. Gaston was a complete asshole.
Lee is just so enthusiastic. I can't help but be happy listening to this.
Ben Franklin enjoying this WAAY too much! 🤣🤣
Franklin is egging him on 😂
All throughout this song John is just thinking "This man is one of our leading generals.... at least this is the worst thing Amercian general with the last name Lee will ever do. " ...
Wasn't his brother Lighthorse Harry Lee the general?
@@jamesdelliskave9646 I never said he was. Learn to read without injecting your thoughts into the other person's writing. B A in history does not require your explanation

@@jamesdelliskave9646 wasn't his brother automatically mean I wasnt talking about him.
.... Oh the irony of that thought... come Robert E Lee
Nancy Janzen automatica-Lee* :P
This is definiteLEE my favorite song from 1776!
Who would have thought that man portraying John Adams would go on to become known as George Feeny, principal of John Adams High School
And don't forget he was the voice of KITT in "Knight Rider." I flipping loved that car! 😁😁
He was also one of the leading doctor characters in the hospital drama in the 70s, "St. Elsewhere"... after 1776, and before all the others...
4:56--"🎵 And the women are serene... 🎵"
Adams: Oh, good God...
Ben Franklin would be great on Game of Thrones
Then it only would have been one season and they would have had a constitutional govt. The poor, poor people of Westerous.
Historical note: Richard Henry Lee was a signer of the Declaration, also one of Virginia's first two Senators.
3:06 John Adams looks pissed he touched his shoulder lmao
"God leans a little on the side of the Lees..."Richard Henry Lee
"Yeah, about that..."-Ulysses S. Grant
God helped em free america and punished em for going against it xD
Funnily enough there was a certain Rear Admiral Samuel Philips Lee, cousin to Robert E. Lee that fought for the Union, commanding the blockade of Virginia and North Carolina, he later commanded the Mississippi River Squadron as well.
me: trying to study
my brain:
Everywhere a Lee a Lee!
I am incerdib-LEE bad at chemistry... also HERE A LEE THERE A LEE... EVERYWHERE A LEE A LEE :D.
Lee: "And may my horse be turned to glue-"
Horse: "Fucking excuse me?!"
Best musical ever (with the possible exception of the Sound of Music).
I watch this video several times a week....sometimes: several times a day. Also: That "Foooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrwwwwwwwwwwwwwward HooooooooOhhhhhhh" gets me every single time.
You can tell the person who wrote this had way too much (the exact right amount of) fun with adverbs
This is one of the best songs ever, it's so upbeat compared to the other songs in the movie.
I wonder how many takes of the long take/zoom (4:32-5:05) they had to do! Lots of underrated cinematography in this film!
I love John Adams being sick that there is a reprise, as if he has a deep urge to scream "Get on with it Lee!"
On the DvD my friend and I watch every year, they cut out the last scene of it, which is a shame cause seeing John Adams get run into the fountain by Lee and then trying to chase him while still in it is absolutely hilarious! They should have kept it in!
I heard that it was on the old laserdisc put out in the mid-90's. Why it's not on the DVD I have no idea.
Yeah! That end part was NOT on the DVD. I really thought that when after Richard left on the horse, I thought that that was it. But apparently not.
I begged my grade school to do this musical, specifically because I hoped to get this part.
...we did Music Man instead. I got Marcellus. Still fun...but I so wanted to be a Lee of Old Virgina. Real-Lee and True-Lee.
What's funny is that the founding fathers could have actually been like this and we'd have no idea...
Well, I can only surmise that perhaps the founders were at least a little bit like the actors here have played them. Especially considering that John Adams was a Scorpio (Nov 17th), and William Daniels plays that Scorpionic persistence to perfection, including the Mr. Serious-level annoyance with the display of overly extroverted confidence from Richard Henry Lee. Scorpios tend to be introverts - - at least when they're not pushing their agenda to the hilt. Then they are all up in everyone's grill. 😁😂
Oh, Ben Franklin was a character, alright. I’d recommend looking into him more if you’re curious, but he’s one of my favorite Founders for a reason.
Actually, most all of the dialogue and arguments portrayed in the movie came from actual quotes in letters, notes, memoirs, and other writings from the main characters that still exist... the writers of the original Broadway play, and then the movie, gleaned information from different sources to create the dialogue...
Lee said all women are Queens ✨
Correction: all Virginia women.
Sorry, but I just have to. That dislike is John Adams.
Life.Animated
The state of Massachusetts will not stand the state of Virginia’s constant rambling on its full-bosomed ladies.
I've never seen the extended version. That was HILARIOUS!
“All women are queens” -Richard Henry Lee, 1776
Did someone tell him about the 2022 revival?😄
The Lees in 1776: And may the British burn my land if I can't deliver to your hand, the resolution of independency.
The Lees in 1865: And may Sherman burn my land if I can't deliver to your hand the security of slavery.
No, they were fighting for independence in the 1860s too.
@@jake8855 Oh God a Neo Confederate...
I bet you think the North started the war too.
@@DarkStormProduction5 Oh, God. A dummy who thinks the northerners cared either way about slavery and that the constitution never allowed for secession.
@@DarkStormProduction5 They were fighting for independence (which coincidentally is not actually illegal, and the Declaration could be construed as legal precedent for). I really wish people would actually do some reading into the history of that situation. The South was attempting to secede because they were significantly poorer than the north and as a result believed they were not getting fair and adequate representation (which in some ways was probably true since a number of tax laws at the time were seriously fucking up the Southern economy). The slave issue is something which is constantly brought up to cover up a lack of knowledge - Lincoln had no actual problem with slavery and didn't free the slaves until near the end of the war because the north was losing (it was an easy way to garner more troops). I'd also like to point out that A. slaves actually made up a very small percentage of the total population of the Southern states and B. that slave owners made up and even smaller percentage. The vast majority of Southerners (including most of their generals, for example: Stonewall Jackson and General Lee) did not own slaves and were either independent farmers working small operations, independent business men (women often didn't work in that time period), itinerant laborers, or full-time soldiers (like the majority of their generals, who were thoroughly competent and well-respected as soldiers and men prior to, during, and following the war).

Add Christopher Lee, the British actor, to the Lee family tree
Now I'm just imagining him saying FORWARD HOOOOOOOOOOO
Fun Fact: That's the same fountain at the Warner studio where they filmed the opening of Friends.
Richard Henry Lee: "God leans a little on the side, of the Lees, the Lees of old Virginia!"
Robert E. Lee (fidgets awkwardly): "Easy for YOU to say..."
This is so good. Everyone is in on the same joke: the actor, the writers, the orchestrator, the cinematographer. They’re all on the same goofy train.
Since the game takes place in Virginia I'm gonna name my 1st Fallout 76 character Richard Henry Lee.
I love this song and this actor!
This was beautiful-lee sang! The energy throughout the song is amazing.
Saw this movie 2-3 times as a kid, and don't remember the last stanza or Adams going into the fountain. That part was edited from theatrical release, yah?
Robert Haworth This is from the longer 3 hour director's cut. The theatrical cut ended when Richard Henry Lee first rode off on his horse.
+Ad Co I have the director's cut with Cool Considerate Men back in, but my copy doesn't have the reprise.
Are you sure this is the Directors cut? I've ordered the Director's cut from Amazon and downloaded the film from Itunes.
Both are the same copy without this reprise and the second and third verses of "Piddle, Twiddle, and Resolve" cut(The sequence that starts with "I say this with humility..." and ends with the music that plays during when Abigal sings "John, John, is that you carrying on. John"(which is played in echo with no accompaniment in the Director's cut and Itunes download")).
Would this be the Blu-Ray version of the Directors cut?
I found a version of the film with this reprise and full "Piddle, Twiddle, and Resolve" sequence on a website called "Yify.tv".
Here's the link:
yify.tv/watch-1776-online-free-yify/
Is this the version you have?
I don't know if this is too late, but here is the answer. The original release and the Director's cut don't include the last part. It is included in the Extended Cut. Both the Director's Cut and the Extended Cut are on the Blu-ray.
Here is the Blu-ray I have. Both versions can be selected on the play movie button and the scene selection. I recommend it if you don't owe the movie already. www.amazon.com/1776-Blu-ray-William-Daniels/dp/B00UHAJ16C
I randomly start singing this in my head lol
Reminds me of "C'est Moi!" from "Camelot."
Same kind of comedic interlude from the "gallant"!
He's so amazingly over the top
