I remember going to see this on a class field trip in 7th grade.
It is based on a really good book called Killer Angels and the movie is pretty good, aside from a few fake beards.
The sequel “Gods and Generals” is a steaming pile of dogshit.
So weird having Martin Sheen do the VO.
“Martin Sheen as the venerable Robert E. Lee”
Reminds me of that scene in West Wing where he voices the Airport PA for some reason.
Fantastic movie
Would be interesting to see this made in more of an *All Quiet on the Western Front* style, instead of falling into Big Famous Man syndrome.
“did you two grow up together?”
yes
“well let him grow up some more…”
One of my best friends from high school was an extra in this movie (you catch a glance of him during Pickett’s Charge). They paid incredibly close attention to details. My friend (a re-enactor with his father) had braces at the time, and every time they were shooting a scene where he could be on camera, he had to hold water in his mouth to prevent accidentally showing his dental work.
He also said Martin Sheen (Lee) would walk the set between takes and never break character; he maintained his accent and bearing for hours.
130 years ago has now become 180 years ago.

This is not a movie — but a series of boring speeches by actors in costumes — someday I hope a top filmmaker will really do a great civil war movie — no one’s really done it
Incredible movie. I’m still hoping that someday we get The Last Full Measure.
I was in this movie as an extra. Spent all of July 1993 in Gettysburg filming. Last thing I did as a civilian before I joined the navy. Seeing how movies were made as a 18 year old kid was pretty awesome and I’ll remember that time for the rest of my life.
Some of the worst fake beards in film
