**_Gives you a good idea of how challenging the risky journey was_** In September-November 1620, the Mayflower carries 102 passengers plus 25-30 crewmembers from southwest England to the cape in what is now Massachusetts. Anthony Hopkins plays the captain while Richard Crenna is on hand as the leader of the Pilgrims, a group of Calvinist Puritans who chose to separate completely from the Church of England and were thus dubbed Separatists. "Mayflower: The Pilgrim’s Adventure" (1979) is a television production criticized as ‘the Love Boat without a shuffleboard’ due to some romantic subplots, but it works well enough to help you see what the daring historical adventure was like. Besides, as the enlightening Epilogue blurb points out, Priscilla Mullins (Jenny Agutter), John Alden (Michael Beck), Myles Standish (David Dukes) and Rose Standish (Trish Van Devere) were all real-life people. Jenny was already a minor celebrity due to “Logan’s Run” and “The Eagle Has Landed” from a few years earlier (not to mention “Walkabout” from the early 70s). Meanwhile Michael Beck was notable for just starring in “The Warriors.” Hopkins had gained great momentum with his previous movie, “Magic,” and easily carries this one (in a performance he could probably do in his sleep). And Crenna assists with aplomb. The obvious problem with productions like this is that it’s a confined-setting movie wherein 62 minutes of the runtime take place on the small vessel (just over two-thirds of the runtime). The proceedings are dramatically mundane with the occasional real-life challenge. It goes without saying, people who need an explosion every ten minutes and a flashy guy with a cape saving the day should stay away. It runs about 1 hour, 32 minutes. GRADE: B-/B

Journey Into the Unknown: William Bradford And The Pilgrim Fathers

For many Americans, the journey of the Mayflower symbolizes the birth of their nation. To this day, the Pilgrim Fathers are a glorified symbol of American virtue. In search of autonomy and with the desire to preserve their cultural identity, a group of English Puritans left their Dutch refuge in 1620 to set off for the New World. That voyage is not just a tale of a religious community bravely going their own way; the events of those days would have a major impact on the course of modern history. The rules and regulations of the Mayflower Compact that the Pilgrim Fathers, religious sectarians, abided by, became the secular prototype for the constitution of the United States of America; a social contract that would serve as an example for many other national constitutions during the European age of civil society and thereafter.
