Title: One of the best Civil War films
Review: As a woman, it's hard to be enthusiastic about a war movie, yet with Gettysburg I am just that. The book was enthralling - the movie true to the book. To watch the personal struggles each general faces when ordering his men into battle and sure death is captured very well. Berenger, in a wonderful performance as General Longstreet, truly captures Longstreet's agony when ordering his men to march across a one mile open stretch into blazing guns. Daniels, as Chamberlain, gives a moving performance as he tries to rally his men to fight for the cause. Probably Jeff Daniels best role to date. Richard Jordan's performance as General Armistead, is the most moving of all as he discusses with Longstreet, his personal dilema with raising his hand against his best friend. Truly a struggle between brothers, friend against friend. Well done! A must see. A must read, as well!!
