Saturday Evening Movie Post [moviegique]: Young Washington

"Washington! Washington!"

To Internet users of a particular vintage, those two words spoken together immediately trigger a semi-musical rapid hyper-ventilation and a litany of unlikely attributes and accomplishments ascribed to our first President. But The Boy and I kept that to a minimum as we partook of Young Washington on this 250th anniversary of our independence.

This is the latest big effort from Angel Studios, who did The Sound of Freedom, among others, complete with a pitch for you to buy tickets for people to come see the movie.

This is much like Sound of Freedom now that I think about it, with many of the same strengths and flaws. I think it's better overall, and highly enjoyable, yet not quite to the level of the Korean historical dramas we used to be able to see in Koreatown.

Significantly, however, it serves the same purpose. And it earned its $20M budget back at the box office on the first weekend, so it won't be a money loser. For The Boy and I, it increased our hunger for more such material, basically unplumbed since I was a child.

"Oh, there he goes again, revoluting."

We begin with Washington desperate to find his own men at The Battle of the Monongahela, which they manage to pronounce less silly than I always do ("mun-ON-gah-HEE-la") and which they are losing, until a dysenteric young Washington charges into (against Thomas Gage's advice) to find the Virginia militia.

12 years earlier...

I was on the fence about the flashback. At first I thought, well, this is a start-the-movie-off-with-a-bang thing when I would've appreciated a slow build-up to get to this point. By the end of the movie, I thought they had done a good job with getting back to that point, and the movie was almost a superhero origin story as the socially adventurous Washington tries to climb through the British ranks only to get ahead of his own abilities and to lose the very wealthy girl to the more socially appropriate British noble, culminating in losing valuable men to his stubbornness in a humiliating defeat against the French.

The arc is very good, and very "Korean", if you will. The capable but proud leader finds humility in failure and learns the important thing is serving others. Sorry if that's trite: That's the way it plays out in the history books and it's a good lesson for everyone.

Young George in his uniform, looking restrainedly unhappy.

To be great, you have to faceplant.

William Farnklin-Meyer does a good job in the lead. He's handsome and believable, both in proud and petulant moments. Mia Rogers as love-interest Sally is beautiful and...uh...heaving...and is very convincing as the woman who loved Washington but gave him up for the more socially correct choice. They're both actually English, too, which is sort of amusing.

The big names in the cast are Kelsey Grammar, Andy Serkis and Ben Kingsley, all with small but meaty roles. Oh, and Mary Louise-Parker does an excellent job as Ma Washington. Great casting choice.

Good acting all around, in other words, which helps tremendously. It's also well edited. The sound—I thought some of the dialogue wasn't as crisp as it should've been, but otherwise it was quite good. Good use of score.

The action is pretty good. It's Hollywood-ified, but if I'm not going to ding a Korean movie for that (and I never have), I'm certainly not going to ding an American one for it. The pacing is occasionally odd, reminding me a bit of Sound of Freedom.

Storytelling like this is a muscle, and in America it's a muscle that's been underused since the Bicentennial.

Mia Rodgers looking worshipfully upward.

Having Sally Fairfax be a knockout makes George seem less like a social adventurer. (Jaclyn Smith played her in the 1984 "Washington" miniseries.)

On a technical level The Boy felt the portrayal of the battle scenes wasn't spot on. He didn't hold it against the movie much but he's jonesing for a movie that understands Linear warfare. Me hearing Bach and Petzold* at a 1755 English ball rankled me.

The Rotten Tomatoes split on this is predictable: 92% for audiences, 60% for America-hating critics, and for all the expected nonsense reasons. It's no Braveheart and not even The Patriot, but those movies were even more brutal to history than this was. This one very nicely blends true elements with a little modern education and some myth-building. I particularly enjoyed Washington's penchant for hacking away at trees when he was mad, and then having him chip in during the Ohio campaign to hack apart a tree that had stopped Braddock's army.

There is a wide range of juicy historical "Easter eggs" for the America Cinematic Universe, from the easiest ("Oh, you say there's an identity separate from the British here?") to more subtle ones ("Oh, you say Thomas Gage doesn't care about the colonials.") Lots of good classist snobbery (which is probably authentic, and even played down, honestly). Lots of, "Huh, slaves...are going to be a problem eventually, ain't they?" that recall the Nate Bargatze "Washington" sketch.

Good stuff. Recommended if you don't hate America. Even if you're so-so on America, you can have a good time.

Ben Kingsley in a white wig looking perturbed.

I stole this from a story with the caption "Ben Kinglsey says he won't stop acting." Why would he? He's great!

*I just this second learned that Bach's Minuet in G was actually written by Christian Petzold, and this was discovered in the late '70s. News just reached me, some 50 years later.

OTHER MOVIES & THINGS:
I was busy finalizing my cover and glossary for my next book, "Lair of the White Worm" and pickin's were slim, but here's what we saw this past fortnight-and-a-half:

The Fisher King: From Terry Gilliam's golden period ("Time Bandits" to "Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas"), Jeff Bridges is a shock-jock (remember how much they hated Rush and blamed him for everything?) whose antics result in Robin Williams' wife being murdered. Williams ventures into hell to get her back. (Wait, no...)

12 Monkeys: Arguably Gilliam's best film (though I still favor "Munchausen"), Bruce Willis is a time-traveler trying to mitigate the apocalypse. Brad Pitt is a crazy man running a pro-animal death cult that may have caused it. Brad Pitt is better at being authentically crazy than Robin Williams was. Plot twist: Pitt achieves this by literally imitating Terry Gilliam.

Network: Massive 1976 Oscar Juggernaut featuring Faye Dunaway as a rapacious network entertainment executive with a vision of corrupting the news to make it profitable. I was struck by how relevant it all felt today. Highlight: Communist revolutionaries arguing over ancillary residuals they'll receive from the TV show based on their terrorist antics.

The Samurai and the Prisoner: Terrific new Japanese historical drama based on a leader whose main problem seems to be an unwillingness to brutally murder the people he's supposed to, which includes children and harmless people. (Or are they?)

Sheep in the Box: Kore-eda's new drama about a couple that replaces their dead son with a robot, and realizes they can't replace their dead son with a robot, and a whole bunch of other things. Interesting but unfocused.

White Nights: Luchino Vischonti's 1957 classic based on a story by Dostoevsky. Filmed at Cinecitta, elements of this Russian drama don't literally work, but it's a gorgeous film with gorgeous Italians in it.

The Rivals of Amziah King: A unique musical/comedy/crime/thriller/drama which is marvellous for the first 45 minutes. Brilliantly edited, heartfelt and good-looking with some fabulous music, it suffers from one unrecoverable issue at the end of the first act which, while absolutely necessary to the plot, dooms the rest of the movie.

11 > I enjoyed it but not as much as I WANTED to. I can't really explain why.

They don't quite have the storytelling muscle developed. It was the same in "Sound of Freedom". And it may be the germ of truth behind the slander that "conservatives can't make art".

Good art needs to be able to subjugate the literal reality to the aesthetic one. Conservatives are suspicious of this.

30 A tract of 2314 acres was acquired by George Washington three miles west on Dec. 15, 1772, for services in the French and Indian War. It was surveyed by William Crawford in June, 1771. It bordered for five miles on the Ohio River.

The Running Scared movie with Paul Walker is a completely unrelated movie but it's great IMO. It has one of my five all time great movie scenes.

Posted by: polynikes at August 15, 2026 08:05 PM (KC5Lt)

33 I saw "Young Washington", and enjoyed it, though it didn't have the gut-punch that "Sound of Freedom" had. (BTW, I think that "Cabrini", which was by the same director as "Sound of Freedom", was even better.) The problem was the lead, William Franklin-Meyer. He was adequate in the role, but he didn't give me the feeling that this was a man whom men risk their lives to follow. I suppose that that's an inherent flaw in biopics about great men: asking an actor to project greatness is extremely difficult. "Oppenheimer" had the same problem, and so did "The Odyssey": a void at the center where there should be strength. The only recent movie that overcame that problem was "Darkest Hour", with Gary Oldman's amazing performance as Churchill.

I read a story about a slave named James who served some guy under Lafayette. Some guy had the idea to send James across lines to the British to gather info. He worked as a waiter for the Brits. Lafayette was all for it.

James was really good at this. He gave the information that the British were planning to hole up at Yorktown. Check mate!

After the war, Lafayette saw to his emancipation and insisted on his pension. A cool story.

We were glad we saw it, but...look, the first 45 minutes or so are just spectacular. And the rest of the movie fails to live up to that. Not that it's bad--it's a little long, and is very much carried by the editing.

The problem is, to say what exactly the problem is is a massive spoiler.

It goes from being great to being kind of muddled and so-so.

I finished watching the old "Malcolm in the Middle" series streaming on Hulu.

It still hold up. Excellent series and consistently funny. 3-4 good laughs per show.

I thing I didn't remember is that the series had a great final episode, which most series can't manage at all.

It ended with all the loops closed and full of hope for the future.

The Malcolm reboot they released at the first of this year pissed all over the ending and the characters. Just thinking about it again pissed me off. Avoid.

But, the original MitM is well worth your time to take in all nine seasons.

Enjoy!

If this is a reference to my comment about what I see as wanting to hew to certain truths more than others, I think it's a fair cop.

It's not that other temperaments don't suffer from their own limitations, mind you, it's that this specific issue MAY stem from a conservative mindset.

This is light-years ahead of "we have to show all white men as evil," e.g., which afflicts a lot of NON-conservative entertainment.

110 As part of my recent Ray Bradbury binge I rewatched a number of the Bradbury Theater episodes (which still hold up), Moby Dick (the Huston with Gregory Peck), The Illustrated Man, and Fahrenheit 451 (the Truffaut).

If you revisit the Truffaut Fahrenheit 451, you may find it amusing to look at their 'wall screens' which are nowhere near the size of what we'd accept as a big screen television now. More like the size of what I'm using right now as the monitor for my Chromebox.

And if you pick up the blu-ray of Fahrenheit 451, be advised that it probably will NOT include the extra features listed on Amazon and on the blu-ray package itself. Movie only.

112 I saw Young Washington with my parents when they visited me back on the 4th. I enjoyed it. Mostly for the battle scenes. They were suitably epic, and I didn't see anything egregiously out-of-place. (And compared to the Richard Sharpe tv movies that make up most of my cinematic-musket-warfare context, they battles were awesome!)

The one big criticism I had was that the early film spent so much time on Washington's social life and career ambitions...but then completely dropped those storylines for the third act, and didn't even circle back to them in the coda. I loved that the third act was all about battles and the army, but as a film, it really should have made some acknowledgement of those plot-threads. But, if there is a sequel, that would address that shortcoming.

It makes sense, given that he and his father bonded over his father getting a Masters in Land Warfare when Pooky was a teenager.)

Thanks for the diversion from my medical discomfort. In keeping with the movie theme, I'll leave you with Lil Pooky's current favorite first minute-and-a-half, Phantom Of The Opera:

I wonder what percentage of that is disabled veterans. The GWOT messed up veterans pretty badly, both physically and mentally.

No one in their right mind would hire Pooky given his mental history and he has soooo many appointments every week. I know he struggles with his "purpose" sometimes, even going as far as to say that his job is to keep breathing so that his "paycheck" keeps supporting the family. I often remind him that his job is to be a good dad, and having him home has been invaluable. If he didn't have a family, I'm not sure he would have even made it a year post-military.
