“Gettysburg” is one of my all-time well-liked war films! It re-creates the Civil War’s battle of Gettysburg with top-notch acting, an ample screenplay, a hauntingly exquisite musical find, and some of the most authentic and stirring battle scenes I’ve ever seen in a movie.
Based upon Michael Shaara’s Pulitzer Prize winning modern “The Killer Angels,” this film follows the vital characters, and chronicles the main events, which occurred at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania from July 1-3, 1863. The events depicted in the film are famous for their historical accuracy. Some of the most lively battle scenes in the film are General John Buford’s engagement with the Confederates on the high ground north of Gettysburg on July 1; the defense of Minute Round Top by Colonel Joshua Chamberlain’s 20th Maine on the following day; and, of course, Pickett’s Charge on the final day of the battle. The battle scenes occupy plenty of smoke and fire, but are also very tastefully done with a minimum of blood and gore.
The acting in “Gettysburg” is grand throughout. Jeff Daniels, who portrays Chamberlain, probably gives the best overall performance, but Martin Sheen (Robert E. Lee), Tom Berenger (Gen. James Longstreet), Sam Eliot (Buford,) Stephen Lang (Gen. George Pickett), and Kevin Conway (Sergeant Kilrain) also give performances which are outstanding for their realism, grittiness, and historical accuracy. Special mention must also go to the unhurried Richard Jordan, whose portrayal of Confederate General Louis Armistead was consistently eloquent and though-provoking.

“Gettysburg” is a long movie; it runs to honest over four hours. Smooth, it held me spellbound from launch to accomplish, mainly due to its dramatic intensity and realistic battle scenes. I highly recommend this outstanding film not only to Civil War enthusiasts, but for anyone who loves a sumptuously produced and well acted war film.
Many other reviewers have written about the movie Gettysburg itself, so I belief I would comment on the DVD itself.
I have an extensive DVD collection, and if you have experienced what I have, among them are the astronomical quality transfers and some trusty dogs. Gettysburg might well be THE finest transfer I’ve seen. The video (I play it on a widescreen HDTV) and audio are outstanding. I must emphasize that the video delivers wonderful clarity, perhaps the best I’ve seen. Clearly, the careful attention to detail and loving recreations that were the foundation for the fresh movie have been carried to the DVD with that same committment. It is refreshing to survey a studio that REALLY cares about its product.
As an aside, I should also mention I am an amateur Civil War historian focused on the battle of Gettysburg and of course collect the film an outstanding, albeit miniature, short history of the battle. This DVD will expand other people’s knowledge if they avail themselves of the feature length commentary, especially the portions by James McPherson from Princeton U. His fable not only amplifies details of what the movie shows, but also puts a broader perspective on it, such as other notable engagements at Gettysburg such as Culp’s Hill, the Wheatfield, and others.
