In 1898, the U.S. Government decided to intervene on the side of the Cuban rebels in their struggle against Spanish rule. Assistant Navy Secretary Theodore Roosevelt decides to experience the war first hand by promoting and joining a volunteer cavalry regiment. The regiment, later known as the Rough Riders, brings together volunteers from all corners of the nation and all walks of life. When Roosevelt and his men finally land on Cuba, they face ambush, intense enemy fire, and a desperate, outnumbered charge up a defended hill.
Undersecretary of the Navy Theodore Roosevelt resigns to form a volunteer militia unit called "The Rough Riders" to fight in the Spanish-American War.
This is one of my all time favorite movies, I actually bought the commercially produced tape of it. I am a Living Historian/Reenactor, I do a Spanish American War impression, I read everything I can about the SA War, and these people got it right. Some over-dramatization of course, playing with the facts. The Spanish did not have machine guns at Santiago, if they had, the battle would have turned out of little different-look at the havoc machine guns cause in the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-05 then in WWI. But it looks great to see "our boys" valiantly charging up hill against them (nice of the Spanish to be such lousy shots). The U.S. officer in charge of the Gatling guns was Lt. John J. Parker, about 35 (promotions were slow back then) and he was know as "Blackie" for his luxurious black beard. William Shafter had a full head of hair, a mustache but no beard, the actor portraying him is bald with a beard, plus he really didn't do justice to Shafter's corpulence (he weighed over 300lbs). And the scenes where the Spanish soldiers all have left handed rifles and the Maxims are feeding from the left, later when the Rough Riders capture one Roosevelt says "I can see it feeds from the right"-poor film editing. And the Spanish had no need of German advisers, they had a long and proud military tradition. Also the scene where Roosevelt tells his men to "kill the German"-TR ordering a prisoner to be murdered? I think not.
Against these perhaps minor criticisms (hey, I am have taught history at a community college) I will state that the uniforms and equipment of the troops on both side are correct, the depiction of black soldiers in the battle is correct-all four of the Army's black regiments were in Cuba, the 9th & 10th Cavalry, the and 25th Infantry, the Rough Riders were brigaded with the 10th Cavalry. Mostly importantly, the film captures the mood, the mannerisms, the atmosphere of the time, the idea of the sons of New York's wealthiest families so eager to get into the fight that they will serve as enlisted men, and the fact that the War of 1898 ended many of the divisions left over from the war of 1861-1865 and in a sense we went from being the "United States" to the "United States of America".
I didn't realize John Milius had this fine film in him (after all, he gave us RED DAWN). I stand corrected. I liked the film so much, I had other members of my family watch it, and they loved it, too. How pleasantly surprised I was by Tom Berenger's superb performance as Teddy Roosevelt. Watch for Berenger as he stands at the back gate of the caboose of a train he's commandeered to transport his troops. He has no dialogue, but get a load of the look at his face and his bearing. He just stands there, beaming, so gloriously alive with the spirit of the man and his times. Look for standout work by Gary Busey (I really wanted him to say "Mr. Roosevelt! Look at the firepower!") as the feverish Southern general Joe Wheeler, Illeana Douglas (a fresh surprise as Alice Roosevelt), Brad Johnson (who has easily the most beautiful smile in Hollywood) as the outlaw-turned-hero Henry Nash, Nick Chinlund (a fave "X Files" creep) in a great scene as Frederick Remington, and Chris Noth as the privileged Craig Wadsworth. All are tremendous. Sam Elliott turns in both subtle and commanding work as Captain Bucky O'Neil, a man as heartbreaking when he bids his wife goodbye as he is terrifying and awesome when he breaks his troops in to the concept of killing. My quibbles with the production are few: silly, Attenborough-style casting of George Hamilton as a too-handsome William Randolph Hearst, cheesy use of the "St. Crispin's Day" speech from Shakespeare's KING HENRY V, very little information on what the war was actually about from both sides (the opening credits block the vintage headlines that supposedly bring us up to speed). Still, the battle sequences are masterfully staged (watch the horses run by Remington while he paints--gorgeous shot!), the training sequences are fascinating, and Berenger's expression once the Battle for San Juan Heights is over is simply heartwrenching.
