Danielle Solzman Solzy at the Movies Founding Brothers changes the order of events to follow a chronological setting but the documentary is every bit the equal to the Pulitzer Prize-winning book of the same name. Rated: 5/5 Jul 7, 2024 Full Review John A. Nesbit Old School Reviews Personality clashes, sexual scandals, and a touch of violence enliven what many history students have previously thought was rather mundane Rated: B+ Sep 1, 2002 Full Review Read all reviews
