The Crossing 2000 TV, 90 min. Genre: Drama

Things didn't look good for the Continental Army six months after the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The British forces, which included the well-trained German Hessians, had control of Trenton, NJ, and were poised to seize Philadelphia. The Continental forces, under George Washington (Jeff Daniels), were near collapse from decimated men, disease, and shortage of supplies. Against the recommendations of most of his Generals, Washington decided to make a sneak attack on Trenton on Christmas day. To do this, he and his troops had to cross the Delaware River while the river was freezing during a cold storm. The ensuing battle became a turning point of the war. Made for cable TV.

| | Great movie...a sleeper | RRW 11/13/2007 | | I played the guy who fights the dog and then dumps him off a bridge in Chicago. While my character is a scumbag - his employers are even worse. The only question in the movie is - who gets it worse? - the dog or John Travolta. I'm flipping a coin and I'm now up to best 9 of 11.....See the movie.....it seems like a suicide inducing movie at first, but the ending makes the pain all worthwhile... |
| | Movie is touching... | waxman 08/14/2007 | | The hard part is getting to the end.....it's like Elephant with a much happier ending...I played the Kid who dumps the dog in the beginning of the movie.....but it gets better for "Triipoli" after that |
