I just never cared much for that movie to be honest. Gettysburg was better done as were films like Glory and even Cold Mountain. A Grant vs. Lee miniseries could really be interesting! Oh, I hated that movie. The book was okay. The film was just....dull. But I have to say that I don't actually reme... |

You haven't seen "God and Generals" then? Both battles, as well as Fredricksburg are showcased in that film. All Rebel victories IIRC. |

You are mistaken, Captain. YOu will find that we here in the Union Army can give as much as we get. A lot of the problems that young officers have is trying to deal with E and D class troops that run away from Southern Ladies Academies.
