I Am

I Am  I am Johnny Tremain

I wonder were my mother is

I hear her voice

I see her face

 I want to be with her

 I am Johnny Tremain

 I enjoy being with Cilla

 I feel happy

 I believe in god

 I worry about Cilla

I cry remembering my mother

I am Johnny Tremain

 I understand how it feels like to be unwanted

I say that a man can stand up

 I dream of Cilla and my mother

 I try to please people

 I hope that war will be over soon

I am Johnny Tremain

History written by the victors

The movie that we watched was called “The Patriot” but imagine if it was called “The Loyalist”. The movie’s theme would be completely different.   This is because the movie would be all brutal and the British would be fighting for the American colonies to stay under their command, but the patriots would be fighting for their freedom and for “Taxation without Representation”. They both had honorable and dishonorable people, and they had two main characters for example Mel Gipson was considered hero for the patriots and to the British he was the worst enemy. But if the movie was called “The Loyalist” it would be the opposite the British general would be the hero and Mel Gipson would be the enemy and he would be killed by the British general. Part of the movie would be similar because it would have the same concept. I think the concept of the movie would be that the patriots were fighting for a good reason which is they were fighting for liberty and “Taxation without Representation”.
