Movies
I have seen debates about many movies about the Civil War on discussion
groups. Here's a list of some. If anyone knows of Web sites about any of these specific
movies, I would appreciate finding out about them. Or maybe someone would like to start
such Web pages. Or maybe you would just like to write a review of any of these movies; I'd
publish it here and give you a byline.
This list contains movies good and bad.
See bottom of page for some appropriate general references to movies.
