I'll throw this comment in only because "The War" was referred to not as the Civil War or even the War Between the States, but as "The War of Northern Aggression"....



I particularly thought the Confederate massacre of innocent civilians in Lawrence, Kansas was well portrayed. They descended on the town, shot up a lot of civilians and then fled like rabbits when Union forces pursued....

The movie did well to make both side look like sinners.
