About Robert Baldwin: A Matter Of Principle
This film is a reconstruction of Robert Baldwin’s involvement in the Upper Canada Rebellion of 1837. Though bound to the cause of constitutional reform by principle, Baldwin’s heart was with the rebels and in the midst of armed revolt, he withdrew to fight a lonely battle with himself.
Directed by John Howe, Robert Baldwin: A Matter Of Principle leans on a strong ensemble — Leo Ciceri, Ed McGibbon, Alan Mills — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about history titles of 1961.
