5.0 out of 5 stars REMARKABLE!, April 27, 2001

This review is from: Three Sovereigns for Sarah - A True Story Of The Salem Witch Trials [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I received this movie for Christmas 2000 and I have watched it three times so far since. I do not believe there is a better movie showing America's Puritan past, as well as the awful Salem witch trials. Another one of those 'you are there' epics, the THREE SOVEREIGNS FOR SARAH is a must see for all students of American history. Knowing that this was filmed in the actual buildings where the original events happened sends shivers down my spine. Now, where's the DVD of this movie?

5.0 out of 5 stars A Riveting Experience!, December 18, 2000

This review is from: Three Sovereigns for Sarah - A True Story Of The Salem Witch Trials [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I was thrilled to discover that I could buy this video. I've been searching for a copy of it ever since I saw the PBS presentation back in the early 1980's.

The story was one of the most interesting and deeply-moving ones that I had ever seen, and inspired me to visit Salem with my family. Finding the Rebecca Nurse farmhouse was probably the highlight of our trip.

The acting, the script and the visual images of this movie combine to leave an unforgettable impression and a valuable history lesson.

5.0 out of 5 stars MUST SEE MOVIE, November 29, 2003

This review is from: Three Sovereigns for Sarah - A True Story Of The Salem Witch Trials [VHS] (VHS Tape)

True Story: Three Sovereigns for Sarah is a great movie that keeps you intrigued and horrified about the Salem Witch Trials. It's told in a way that helps the viewer to understand what the accused went through. I am a teacher and show it to my high schoolers when we study the Salem Witch trials. They love it!!! They like it much better than The Crucible, which is good but not accurate.
