This condenses the origin of liberty down into 1 hour and 30 minutes. The only way to recover the liberty we have lost is to educate the people. This movie is a great primer to that end. Children born since it's construction have no way of knowing the 700 years of lessons that it took to construct the Constitution. And therefore they attack it and ignore it. They think because they went to 'law school', took a 'criminal justice' class, or a 'constitutional law' class that they understand the Constitution, this is incorrect. People in power have a vested interest to maintain power, and they unconsciously bastardize actual history with their unconscious bias. This movie points that out. Few teach the origin of liberty and it takes so much more than reading a headline to absorb all of the wisdom. The origin of liberty should be taught from the beginning of educating an individual. This would be a perfect movie to watch every year as a family and glean the wisdom of history from it. Without the knowledge we act on whims, we choose the easiest solution, we focus on the wrong problems. "government give me safety", even "government punish my neighbor for having a messy yard", "i have a right to food, clothing, education", and so much more. We don't even realize today the liberty we've lost because we have forgotten what liberty is. Those things are not liberty. Without understanding the 700 years of wisdom it's impossible to grasp the logical conclusions that come from what people think they want in the moment. I love this movie, for without knowledge, there can be no liberty. @PromotinLiberty
