Interesting movie basically telling of the relationship between Lord General Fairfax commander in chief and General Oliver Cromwell during and after civil war hostilities stop.There is no big battle scenes here. It is a great movie and well worth a watch. Highly recommend. Another movie set in same time period is The Devils Whore which is fantastic.
