Verfilming van het gelijknamige toneelstuk van Sherman Edwards en Peter Stone. In 1776 wil het Congress van de Verenigde Staten zijn strevens duidelijk definieren, wat uiteindelijk zou leiden tot de bekende Declaration of Independence, maar over de excacte inhoud daarvan moet eerst nog gedebatteerd worden.
Nee, helaas is 1776 nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
