Description

Amazon.com

"It's all about character," Jack McCain says to son John on his first day at Annapolis Naval Academy. Based on John McCain's autobiography, A&E’s Faith of Our Fathers traces the senator's character-building journey from pilot to POW to war hero. Shawn Hatosy (Soldier's Girl) is John and Scott Glenn (The Right Stuff) is his four-star admiral father. The story begins in 1967 when the younger man is shot down over North Vietnam, tortured, and hospitalized--only to be tortured again. Then it flashes back to 1953 as he takes his initial steps towards a military career and life with first wife Carol (Erin Cottrell). The made-for-TV movie continues to alternate between Annapolis and Vietnam's Hanoi Hilton. The story ends after McCain is released in 1973. Although his part often feels underwritten, Hatosy shines as a man who, like his father before him, would not betray his country at any cost. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Product Description

Based on the autobiography by Senator John McCain and Mark Salter, Faith of My Fathers chronicles the younger years of Senator McCain's life. Beginning as a hotshot Navy pilot through his five yearsof captivity as a prisoner of war in North Vietnam, the film captures how his experiences helped shape the man that he has become.

    Excellent movie.

    Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2017

    I love John McCain...didn't know a movie was made about his horrific years in Hanoi Hilton until I saw on television. Definitely wanted a copy in my movie library. Checked Amazon & found it. Thank you Amazon. Will watch again & again & recommend to everyone, especially those who were in Viet Nam & their peers and loved ones. I believe those who are too young to remember that era should view also. All will gain an appreciation of a living Hero and incredible Patriot in John McCain!!! We are so lucky to have such brave men & women with incredible integrity in our armed services. God bless John McCain & all our military personnel. Thank you for giving your lives so we Americans can enjoy our liberty.

    Real American Hero

    Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2008

    This effective dramatization of Sen. John McCain's ordeal in the "Hanoi Hilton" prisoner of war camp for 5 years was actually released a few years ago, based on his memoir of the same name. It also deals delicately with his relationship with his father, both remote and adored, and the clearly the strongest influence in his life. It is very well acted, with a cast that I didn't recognize with the exception of Scott Glenn. In an interview with Sen McCain, he touches lightly on the accuracy of the set of the prison, and his feelings about seeing it.

    Even if you read the book, the video is very worthwhile.

    A necessary story

    Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2011

    I'm no major fan of John McCain the politician. John McCain the Vietnam War POW is a much more likeable and compelling person. Unfortunately, this is the aspect of his life most riduculed or ignored. Probably 3 out of 5 college students wouldn't be able to tell you that John McCain was shot down, captured and tortured by the Vietnamese in the 60s.

    I guess I expected more demonstrations of faith in God in this movie, but for what it was, it was a pretty good movie.

    True story...

    Reviewed in Canada on April 1, 2020

    Interesting, as it is the story of Sen. John McCain before politics when he served in the Vietnam war. He was shot down and imprisoned in the infamous "Hanoi Hilton" where he survived torture and starvation. With Scott Glenn, Shawn Hatosi, Brian F. Durkin and Cary-Hirutoki Tagawa. (2005, English language with English and French subtitles, 90 mins.).
