Gettysburg Movie

This is a trailer for the movie "Gettysburg".

One of my favorite movie monologues (from an equally excellent film and novel).

Composed by Randy Edelman 1993 This is one of my favorite soundtracks for one of my favorite movies. The movie also introduced my to the book it's based on: "The Killer Angels" by Michael Shaara. I'd recommend either for history buffs and whatnot. Jeff Daniels is also the perfect actor for Chamberlain. But enough talk, here ya' go. Enjoy!

Union Colonel Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain was marching with his men to Gettysburg to hold the left flank of the Union line...when 120 mutineers were given to him and told he could shoot them by a snobby guard detail officer. Wronged by the Army bureaucracy with a gotchya! stop-loss that wouldn't let them out of their expired enlistment contracts (sound familiar?), Chamberlain instead DOES THE RIGHT THING and ASKS them to fight one more last time for the Union. He reminds them that there is ...

en.wikipedia.org After finally pushing back Buford's dismounted cavalry, and forcing the Union First Corp, the "Black Hats" to withdraw, the Confederate army is ready to enter Gettysburg.

It starts with the old veterans shaking hands and calling "Hello Yankee" and "Hello Johnny" and things like that, then one Confederate near the camera takes up the Rebel Yell for a few seconds. Laughter is heard (source unknown, possibly a bystander ...
