9. The Courtship of Miles Standish

0.0Nov 22, 1953 · 120 min

The struggles of the early Pilgrims at Plymouth rock is dramatized. Beset by illness, food shortage and Indian marauders, the colonists relied almost on courage alone in the realization of a haven that promised them freedom they had long sought. Against this background unfolded the love story of Priscilla and John Alden, including the famous line "Speak for yourself, John" which occurs when Alden asks the maid to give her hand to his friend, Captain Miles Standish.
