1776 (1972 film) The Lees of Old Virginia w/ Reprise 1080p

I don't own this, certain-lee. Happy 4th of July 2015. This is from the longer 3 hour version. In the Director's cut, the scene immediately cuts after Richard Lee rides off screen the first time. Ronald "Ron" Holgate won the Tony Award for Best Supporting Actor as Richard Henry Lee in the original Broadway production of 1776. He reprised his role in the 1972 film. Director Peter S. Hunt praised Holgate's great energy and ability to ride horseback while lipsyncing to the musical playback while continuing to act for the film. Holgate performed all horseback riding in the scene except for the first exit off screen, which featured a stunt double mounting the horse by jumping on it from behind.
