Movie Reviews of Glory (Special Edition, Repackaged)
Movie Review: Great film but...........
Summary: 5 Stars
Well cast, well made. Scenery, uniforms, speech, that all important but difficult to capture "feel" for the times all present. Freeman was brilliant and Broderick turns in his best performance ever. I have watched it many times and as a living historian have used the Sharpsburg battle scene often as an accurate portrayal for students to see the horror of war. But, when history meets Hollywood, history will almost always get mugged along the way. The Civil War at
Sea, (volume 3) by Virgil Carrington Jones, page 13 tells the truth about the fictional assault OVER the wall and into the fort. NEVER HAPPENED. ..."planted the flag upon the parapet. At this moment of the attack Shaw was killed, and the Fifty-fourth seemed to go to pieces....its members were seized with a furious panic and acted like wild beasts let loose from a menagerie...they ran away like deer." Facts are stubborn things John Adams once wrote. Such a retreat, historically accurate tho it was does not make for a good finale to a movie. Enjoy the flick, but remember how it really ended.
Movie Review: "DEEP HISTORY" !!!

Summary: 5 Stars
This was a very impressive movie and I am glad that I bought it. If you read the history of this civil war battle first - you will enjoy the movie much better. I recommend the movie Glory.
