VHS Movie Reviews of Filmmaker's Gettysburg 4-Pack [VHS]

Movie Review: High points of critical Civil War battle
Summary: 5 Stars

Gettysburg is not the end all and be all of historical movies. Rather, it spotlights a number of key people of both the Union and Confederate armies and looks at their roles. It is a little uneven in treatment; Lee is seen constantly while George Meade, his opponent is seen only as a walk-on. Joshua Chamberlain's role is greatly examined but the efforts of eccentric political general Dan Sickles are given only a glimpse.

Confederate generals Armistead and Pickett are well developed; Union general Hancock could have been better developed as his actions were also critical to the success of the Union forces.

The walk-on roles for Ken Burns and Ted Turner were inspired and actually added to the tenor of the film.

While long, to do it in less time woould have been a travesty.

I highly recommend this film to those with an interest in the Civil War.
