	Glory movie review, Confederacy, US Civil War Movie
		In Glory, a colored division of soldiers is raised for service in the Union army.
		The movie was filled with colorful characters (most notably the white division commander), and an amazing musical score.
		The illustrations shown on screen as the movie ends which depicted characters from the war served as a nice ending touch.

	Glory (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Glory is a 1989 docudrama which follows the history of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Regiment during the American Civil War.
		In the movie, the ocean is on the left side of the regiment when they charged the fort, presumably stating they came from the north.
		In the movie, Shaw is surprised when the men refuse pay that was reduced because they are a "colored" regiment (though he eventually joins them in their refusal).

	"Glory Road" (2006) / review and/or viewer comments - Christian Spotlight on the Movies
		Glory Road is not only about an incredibly talented team but also pays respect to a coach that took a chance against the norm, challenging the belief systems of the day.
		Although Glory Road is clearly about white racism in American society in the 60’s it is also very careful to point out that racism was not an exclusive right to the white culture but to the fls as well.
		I purposefully made a movie that did not have bad language, sexuality and violence because I really wanted families to have a movie to go to as well as be able to learn something from.” Through the conversation he did state that he is, in fact, a Christian.

	Kirk Douglas: Paths of Glory - Movie
		Sure, the movie was not about our army, but the power of its message could not be missed, and no one from that era, having seen it, could again accept Hollywood's platitudes at face value.
		For many years PATHS OF GLORY was rarely shown even in the United States, in particular during the sixties and the Vietnamese War.
		The movie's pacing is more powerful and ironic than the preceding one, building to a shattering climax.

		However, when a movie comes out that is "based on a true story," I'm always curious to see how they overcome the foregone conclusion that is the climatic ending.
		And Glory Road is the story of what they fought against to make that happen.
		Glory Road goes to great lengths to point out the stupidity of the cultural and social bigotry that existed at that time.

	Glory Road: Movie Review
		“Glory Road” is an overly manipulative sports cliché that provides little reason to rush to the theater.
		The movie states that the 1966 NCAA finals has been said to be the largest upset in sports history; no source is mentioned.
		Sometimes, “Glory Road” is exactly where it should be; with the coach teaching his team that focus, discipline, and teamwork lead to success.

	Bill Murray: Mad Dog and Glory - Movie
		Milo eventually introduces the lame brain cop to his new girl "Glory" (Uma Thurman) an attractive woman who we learn is Milo's main squeeze, however better put, she is a prostitute, she is one of many objects that Milo owns".
		However again, "Mad Dog and Glory:" is still a heavily flawed film, you kinda what your gonna get in the film and Deniro's utterly, weak, spineless and hypocritical character almost leave you feeling dry and bitter by the end of the film.
		"mad dog and glory" don't let the catchy title and blockbuster cast of robert deniro, uma thurman, and bill murray fool you, this is a bad movie from 1993.

	Power and Glory film movie trailer review at The Z Review
		Power and Glory is a comic book created by Howard Chaykin that told the story of a government agent looking after a rather dumb superhero.
		A movie was first rumoured back in 1998 with Hollywood Pictures picking up the rights for it from Howard Chaykin.
		Power and Glory was not a priority for him at that time as he was heavily involved with Mission To Mars.

		Glory Road follows the career of legendary NCAA basketball coach Don Haskins as it began in the mid-'60s.
		Glory Road presents a true story that lends an important history lesson and hopefully will open up dialogue between parents and kids about racism.

	Paths of Glory - Movie Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The movie is an incredibly serious look at corruption among high ranking officers in any military, and the various ways the soldiers are stuck withstanding the brunt of it.
		Paths of Glory ignores that fact that the troops were guilty of the crime they were charged with.
		The dishonor should belong to the general for putting them in a position where he knew they had virtually no chance of succeeding and certainly for ordering death upon them when he realized their chance of succeeding was zero.

	SI.com - Scorecard Daily - Movie Review: Glory Road - Friday January 13, 2006 3:21PM
		In any historical movie, and more often in historical sports movies, liberties are taken for dramatic effect.
		Glory Road (directed by James Gartner) portrays Haskins being hired in mid-1965, straight from coaching a Texas high school girls team.
		Truth is, he was hired in 1961 and won the NCAA title in his fifth season at the school, not his first, and had overseen boys and girls teams at several high schools.

	Movie Review - Glory Road
		Glory Road tells the mostly true story of Texas Western University's (since renamed University of Texas at El Paso) 1966 NCAA basketball championship season that culminated with a shocking victory over Adolph Rupp's heavily favored Kentucky Wildcats.
		But in Glory Road the inspiration comes from a more personal place and from one that still lingers to this day – the need to show others that one race of people is not inferior to another.
		The actors were sent to a basketball boot camp where they trained and were put through their paces with an endless series of drills to accurately emulate the movements of collegiate basketball players - and their training worked for the most part.

	WaffleMovies.com - Glory Road
		At times, the movie feels like an after-school special preaching diversity and understanding with the subtlety of a jackhammer, including all of the requisite, sometimes clunky, speeches about how racism is bad and we all need to get along, but director James Gartner and writer Chris Cleveland have their hearts in the right place.
		Early on, the movie feels a little silly, bordering on cartoonish and obvious, but I got the feeling Gartner was simply luring us in, so he could deliver the big, more emotional and higher quality blows later in the film.
		He has intensity equal to Lucas, and creates a character who is the most dynamic in the movie as he tries to overcome a history of lies and a suspicion of authority.

	Glory Road Movie Review - Glory Road Movie Trailer - The Boston Globe
		The studio's inspiration department strikes again with ''Glory Road." The sport is college basketball and the era is the South in the mid-1960s.
		The movie, meanwhile, is such a heat-and-serve operation you could be forgiven for thinking Stouffer's produced it, not Disney.
		The movie completely ignores the extent of the personal toll integration must have taken on the white players.

	John Mills: Tunes of Glory - Movie
		If they were to remake this movie, they'd probably put Sean Connery in his role, but I'm not sure the great Sir Sean could fill Sir Alec's shoes here.
		Full of rough-hewn Scots drinking life with the same enthusiasm as they drink their whisky, "Tunes of Glory" plays wistfully with the Scottish stereotypes of good natured, dancing and singing soldiers of a highland regiment.
		A story of post-war peacetime soldiers, one cannot call it a war movie or but it is military in flavor,with pipes and drum corp assembled.

	Gothamist: Old Movie Theater Glory
		One of our best movie experiences was at the Ziegfeld, seeing the restored version of Vertigo; sure, multiplexes have big screens, but there's nothing like sitting in a nearly 1200 seat theater with a film washing over you.
		You bought a ticket for the movie and you see both the movie and the show.
		During my time living in the area during the last half of the 90s, it was always regarded as "that crappy small theater." I've heard lately that it's showing more arthouse fare, which would be a nice change of pace.

	Glory - Movie Rental Review
		GLORY is one of the few told entirely from the Northern point of view, and the first one to showcase the role of fighting men of color.
		GLORY tells the epic story of the 54th Regiment of Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry, the first unit of fl troops that fought in the American Civil War.
		The noble ideals behind the 54th stand out when Shaw and the 54th meet another so-called fl Union regiment in the field; it turns out to be a drunken mob encouraged by their corrupt commander to pillage and rape in already-defeated Southern territories.

		This movie presents the perspective of the average French soldier during trench warfare in WWI.
		Passing Glory is in many ways a movie of past glory that few have heard of.
		But the movie does speak to the root cause of war which often is Generals and political figures with little memory of war plunging their nations head first into its horrors.

	Dust to Glory Movie on the Baja 1000 - Premier and Review - Dirt Rider Magazine
		Dirt Rider received an early screening copy of the movie, which we gathered around Karel Kramer's computer and watched, but seeing the graphic, high-speed action of Dust to Glory on the big screen was nothing short of breath-taking.
		One of the most epic scenes in the movie is eight-time Baja 1000 champion Johnny Campbell battling for the lead with Honda B Team rider Andy Grider—who had been cut from Honda's A Team just weeks earlier.
		Dust to Glory's overall depiction of the Baja 1000 is pretty true-to-life and really captures the essence of the race.

	'Glory Road' - MOVIE REVIEW - Los Angeles Times - calendarlive.com
		The Miners, led by Coach Don Haskins, counted an unprecedented seven African Americans in its lineup, including the starting five in the final game, and changed the sociological makeup of the sport, paving the way for the integration of the major southern collegiate sports conferences.
		"Glory Road" is a slick, entertaining version of that story, executed with crowd-pleasing efficiency by producer Jerry Bruckheimer, director James Gartner and screenwriters Christopher Cleveland and Bettina Gilois, but not surprisingly lacking in subtlety or complexity.
		The movie works as well as it does on the strength of the performances by Lucas and Luke, and the fact that the players were cast based both on their ability to act as well as play ball.

		And of course, a basketball movie set in 1966 wouldn't be complete without the super tight short shorts.
		Glory Road is fast, dramatic, and often funny, but it plays it loose with the facts.

	Premiere - Glory Road
		Directed by James Gartner, who cut his filmmaking teeth in commercials, Glory Road is a slickly packaged crowd-pleaser that inspired frequent applause at the screening I attended.
		Glory Road also takes some liberties with history; it's never mentioned, for example, that the Miners already had three fl players on the team when Haskins was hired.
		Of course, none of these flaws should come as a surprise; Bruckheimer has long been one of the leading practitioners of the style-over-substance school of filmmaking and so far, he's got the box-office on his side.
