Synopsis
Iron ships and men of iron -- the monitors of liberty. One of the earliest examples of History Film, Hearts in Bondage is a loose depiction of actual events that took place during the American Civil War. This film follows the friendship of Kenneth Reynolds and Raymond Jordan; best friends who find their friendship tested across party lines. This story of friendship is helmed by legendary actor Lew Ayres (who appeared in the now-immortalized All Quiet on the Western Front just six years prior) who makes his directorial debut.
