		Gettysburg was the climax of the Civil War as Midway was the climax of the war in the Pacific.
		In GETTYSBURG with the exception of a few conversations to broaden the characters, and a rhetorical speech added here and there, what we see is all documented history and ironically the film is more and not less compelling as a result.
		GETTYSBURG was reportedly made as a television mini-series and at some point was redirected to the big screen.

		Gettysburg was great because it focused on North and South alike, avoided bias, dealt just with the facts, did not preach, was realistic to a tee, and limited itself to one battle.
		The movie is basically based around Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson, one of the greatest generals of the South.
		Also, in one of the most sickening scenes in the movie, Jackson talks to his fl cook, and actually tries to say that the South is not in favor of slavery, they just do not want to be forced to end it by the North.

		Even General Lee's (as played by Martin Sheen) statement that he can not read the name of the town (Gettysburg) they are approching because he left his spectacles elsewhere comes off dramatic.

		Shaara’s novel and the movie screenplay are both based on the historical record but there are, naturally, some liberties taken with the facts and some created events appear in the story line.
		The movie's compression of time (June 28 - June30) benefits the screenplay and conveniently covers the events of the three days in a single day, thus setting the scene for the first day of the battle, July1, 1863.

		Those who are not daunted by the running time (two-hundred thirty-four minutes, easily the longest general release motion picture in a long while) and decide to see the film on the big-screen will find their choice well rewarded.
		The first section, which begins on June 30, 1863 (the day before the start of the battle of Gettysburg) and ends during the day of July 2 with Col. Joshua Chamberlain's legendary defense of Little Round Top, is approximately two hours and twenty minutes long.
		Four and a half hours (including the intermission) is a long time to sit in a movie theater, yet even towards the end, restlessness is unlikely.

	The Movie - Gettysburg
		The movie is excellent for the interest it has aroused in Gettysburg and the C.W. in general - I have seen more posts in all of the CW forums by people who first became interested in the subject after seeing the movie.
		So when they start work on the historical period movie, they have to go to the make-up department for instant "historical manliness." Therefore it is the fault of the producers of "Gettysburg" for not providing realistic make-up facial hair for their actors.
		Throughout his narrative of Gettysburg, Trimble wrote with much restraint concerning Ewell, because of their long and affectionate association; but three is every reason to assume that after the war, in Baltimore, where Dr. McKim as well as Trimble lived, the old soldier related the details he did not print.

		That movie was so bad that the universe dies a little each time the someone watches the flick.
		The movie is produced by Ted Turner Pictures (believe it or not) and was filmed in and around Sharpsburg, Maryland, the site of the Antietam Battlefield, and on actual historical locations in Virginia and West Virginia.
		Gettysburg was pretty well balanced, and I suspect that all the exposition of the Southern POV through Jackson's and Lee's speeches in G's and G's may be balanced by more Unionist sentiments later, as witness the title's reference, IIRC, to a Lincoln speech.

	deseretnews.com - Movie review: Gettysburg \| Deseret Morning News Web edition
		It is well-documented that Turner's favorite movie is "Gone With the Wind," and "Gettysburg" is his own Civil War epic, based on Michael Shaara's 1974 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel "The Killer Angels," about the battle at Gettysburg, a three-day siege that proved to be the war's bloodiest.
		In fact, some of the speeches and marches here seem to go on forever, so that audience members are more likely to be squirming in their chairs and looking at their watches than cheering the heroic efforts of the movie's characters.
		"Gettysburg" is rated PG, and the violence is fairly bloodless, though the body count is, of course, enormous.

		Gettysburg, Ronald F. Maxwell's re-telling of four hot days during the summer of 1863 (based on the Pulitzer Prize winning novel The Killer Angels by Michael Shaara), is a spectacle that gathers power and momentum with every scene.
		Originally slated as a TNT mini-series, Gettysburg received the go-ahead for a theatrical run when Ted Turner realized the quality of the material he had on his hands.
		For those with little more than a passing interest, Gettysburg is still gripping enough to captivate in its own right.
