I loved it. It was probably the best Civil War picture ever made. It was certainly light-years better than the series put out by Ted Turner ( Gods and Generals, Gettysburg ).

I think that Renee Zellweiger's line about men and war should have been put on the list of 100 most memorable movie quotes.

I could live with Gettsburg but Gods & Generals was teh vomit

It was a very good movie, but it was ludicrously romantic. The super hot babe (Kidman) waiting a year or so for a man she barely knows However, the scene where the farmer's wife tried to hit it with Jude Law... That's what I call entertainment! Unfortunately, he's in "love".

I've seen stranger things happen.

Regarding the Turkey Shoot, of course the best scene was when the Indian and the black man squared off in hand to hand combat.

I wonder why some of those guys jumped into the pit, when they were in relative safety shooting from above.

There's another movie that came out about the same time, it's not as good, but interesting, about the Southern partisan riders, can't remember what the hell it's called. It has some neat moments in it.

Yep, that's Jewel.

Hm... I thought that Birth Of A Nation and Gone With The Wind were all the movies you needed to see about the Civil War?

Glory has a place as well

What was she supposed to do? Hit it with the old nasty people? All the people worthy of hitting it with were off at the front.

And the character in the book wasn't super hot. IIRC she was a handsome, yet very reserved woman. Note the scene where Inman comes home, and she makes him turn around while she gets undressed.

She could have returned to big town she came from. Jacksonville, irc. Or hit it with Renee.
