| John
Adams is a sprawling HBO miniseries event that depicts the extraordinary
life and times of one of Americas least understood, and most underestimated,
founding fathers: the second President of the United States, John
Adams. Starring Paul Giamatti (Sideways, Cinderella Man, HBOs American
Spendor) in the title role and Laura Linney (You Can Count on Me,
Kinsey) as Adams devoted wife Abigail, John Adams chronicles the
extraordinary life journey of one of the primary shapers of our
independence and government, whose legacy has often been eclipsed
by more flamboyant contemporaries like George Washington, Thomas
Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton and Benjamin Franklin. Set against
the backdrop of a nations stormy birth, this sweeping miniseries
is a moving love story, a gripping narrative, and a fascinating
study of human nature. Above all, at a time when the nation is increasingly
polarized politically, this story celebrates the shared values of
liberty and freedom upon which this country was built.
