On July 14, 1789, a mob of angry Parisians stormed the Bastille and seized the King’s military stores. A decade of idealism, war, murder, and carnage followed, bringing about the end of feudalism and the rise of equality and a new world order. With dramatic reenactments, paintings from the era, and revealing accounts from journals and expert historians, The French Revolution vividly depicts the events of this era. King Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette, Maximilien Robespierre, and Napoleon Bonaparte lead a cast of thousands in this essential program from the History Channel.
