Ethan Hawke stars as abolitionist John Brown in this Limited Event Series based on the award-winning novel. The story is told from the point of view of "Onion," a fictional enslaved boy who becomes a member of Brown's motley family of abolitionist soldiers battling slavery in Kansas, and eventually finds himself in the famous 1859 Army depot raid at Harpers Ferry, an inciting incident of the Civil War. It's a humorous and dramatic tale of Antebellum America and the ever-changing roles of race, religion and gender in American society. (Showtime)

The cynical, black-humorous lesson in black history, told by a black boy wearing a Sunday best dress. Ethan Hawk approached his performance of abolitionist John Brown with unbelievable verve. A crazy, Bible-bashing fanatic, fighting for the rights of blacks, one of the reasons for the US Civil War is the powerhouse of the entire series, and the only weak places in the series are when he doesn’t happen to be on screen. The Coen-like style is interrupted here and there by fantastically bloody sequences. His rather doubtful interpretations of the Bible make great sense in the light of these bloody slaughters. My name is Captain John Brown! And I am here in the name of the Great Redeemer, the King of Kings, the Man of the Holy Trinity, and I hereby order you to git! Git, in His holy name! Git! For He is on the side of justice and you are on the side of chains!
