The Printer and The Strumpet

A hilarious spoof of the start of the American Revolution from the Boston Tea Party to the battle of Lexington. A conservative newspaperman and a fiery rebel prostitute combine their talents to uncover and publish reports of scandals and graft by the British authorities in 1773 Boston. They risk everything to print their popular newspaper anonymously while dodging military police and British spies who want to hang them for treason. Revolution is coming, but when they fall in love, the larger question may be whether they can keep from strangling each other over their personal political differences before the shooting starts.
