I just got through watching the movie The Plymouth Adventure starring Spencer Tracy as Captain Jones and Van Johnson as John Alden. For those of you who have never seen it or who want to record it, it will be shown again this month on Turner Movie Classics June 17 at 2AM, Eastern time. I was a bit disappointed at the major artistic licenses this movie took. Because of the romantic subplot, it's Bradford who falls overboard, not John Howland. And although we never see her actually do it, we understand that Dorothy Bradford jumped overboard because of her torn love between her husband and Captain Jones. It's also a little funny to see the obviously painted backdrops in some of the scenes. But outside of this silliness, I thought the movie did a good job in portraying the hardships our ancestors faced while travelling on the Mayflower. This is a movie I would recommend.
