Benedict Arnold: A Question of Honor (2003)

Description

He was perhaps the finest commander in the Continental Army. but he will always be remembered as a traitor who turned his back on America in its hour of need. This original film from A&E Network Studios tells the true story of BENEDICT ARNOLD. After winning important victories for the breakaway colonies, Arnold is driven to resign by an ungrateful Congress. Coaxed back into service by his old friend George Washington, he is soon enmeshed in the divisive politics of Revolutionary Philadelphia. And when his love for a loyalist woman leads to scandal--and the Colonial leaders fail to support him--the stage is set for his fateful decision. Directed by Mikael Salomon (Band of Brothers, The Agency) BENEDICT ARNOLD: A QUESTION OF HONOR stars Aidan Quinn (Legends of the Fall, Songcatcher) as the infamous turncoat and Kelsey Grammer (Cheers, Frasier) as George Washington.
