The Crossing	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Crossing is a 2000 made-for-TV movie that aired on A&E, depicting the first Battle of Trenton in The American Revolution. It stars Jeff Daniels as George Washington and follows him through December, 1776 as he tries to find a way to save his army and the Revolution from disintegration after a desperate retreat across the Delaware.There are no British troops immediately in the vicinity, their commander having deemed the Continentals too pathetic to bother with, leaving instead a force of 1200 Hessians—around the numbers that Washington can drum up from the other generals. He decides to cross the Delaware on Christmas night and ambush the Hessians, a plan that everyone thinks is crazy. But with enlistments set to expire at the end of the year, Washington sees no other choice if the Revolution is to continue at all.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Although it takes some liberties with the facts of the battle (see Hollywood History for details) The Crossing takes a distinctly human view of the struggle. The Continental Army is portrayed not as a plucky band of irregulars but a weary, demoralized remnant in dire need of supplies and a boost to morale. Washington, who is known for being mythologized as much as he is for his historical significance, is shown as a human being who is frustrated and at his wits' end trying to keep what's left of his army from disintegrating while his generals, loyal and plotters alike, question his admittedly desperate plan. The result makes it clear how close the Revolution came to dying before it was even a year old, which makes the victory at Trenton even more impressive.

It's actually one reason Washington feels obligated to make one final attempt at a victory, because he feels he owes it to the lads who have not deserted. He also shouts at a group of officers who are huddling inside rather than freezing alongside their troops. Colonel Rall shows some signs of this as well, the Skewed Priorities part below not withstanding. He seems to keep himself alive long enough to ask that his men not be abused in surrender.

The Crossing / int_56515a39	type	Artistic License â€“ History
The Crossing / int_56515a39	comment	Artistic License – History: While Horatio Gates did oppose Washington's plan and claimed illness as an excuse not to participate, he was not marched out of camp at gunpoint as the film depicted. General Mercer claims America suffered no casualties in the Battle of Trenton. This is not quite true, although casualties were remarkably light. In real life, two American soldiers froze to death on the march to Trenton, while another five were wounded during the battle itself. One of them was an 18-year old lieutenant named James Monroe, who would go on become governor of Virginia and the President of the United States. Washington denounces the Hessians as "Mercenaries" and "Men who kill for profit". In real life, the Hessians were traditional German soldiers, no different than the Redcoats, who had simply been hired out by their German overlords to serve the British Empire. The prelude to the battle is condensed. Washington actually began attacking the Hessian perimeter a week before the attack, shortly after having a spy of his spread disinformation about how the Continental Army was too demoralized to even consider attacking Trenton. (It helped that it was almost true.) Also, an independent American force had attacked a Hessian outpost during the final march and Rall took that for the attack he had feared, leading him to let down his guard.
