Agreed!  Ride With the Devil was very well done IMO.  But the limited release as well as the timing (very dark doesn't play well at Christmas time, does it?) made it a film seen by few.

  My fave civil war movie is Ride With The Devil by Ang Lee.

  I believe the final scene of Cold Mountain is influenced by Ride With The 
  Devil.

  Gettysburg is too drawn out, especially Pickett's Charge.
  GAG - ech - gag me. It is truly one of the worse dramas I have seen.

  Glory is a great film.
  Red Badge of Courage is fantastic.

  Isn't Spielberg supposed to do a Lincoln film?
