Hamilton dying in agony after the duel is a fantastic ending! I mean, not so much for him, but for drama.
But it's not just the duel. The story of a bastard from a slave trade infested island dreaming for a war so he might show his stuff, then in a couple of short years he's General Washington's right hand man. (His views on race and slavery were, well, revolutionary for the time. He was not only against the institution, but scoffed that non-whites were in any way genetically inferior)
Hamilton was the prototypical emigrant who came to America to reinvent himself -- and practically invented the idea of America in the process.
Plus, first American sex scandal!
Michael Bay directed that?
It's got like a million shots in it. Give or take.
So you're going to write the movie, right, Tim? You can call it
Ballistic: Burr vs. Hamilton.

Plus, if my $10 bills ain't lying, a HOTTIE!

You obviously haven't heard about the Pilgrim who was hanged next to his sex partners: 3 sheep, 2 sows, 2 heifers and a cow. [link]
I'm just a sharing kind of gal.
Tim, do I have a dim memory that Burr tried to overthrow the U.S. government? (Well, I do have the memory, but is it right?)

Uh oh. The bestiality is spreading out of natter.
But it's historical bestiality! It's meaningful!
Oh, dear. I thought my eyes would be safe in here. I was just looking for some killing.
Tim I *do* think you should do a Hamilton mini-series. Now I'm imagining you doing a mini-series, and a network insisting they prolong it. Now I'm smiling. The network isn't FOX.
