I do admit that I LOVE the movie, even thoughI don't know how to do the review feature (I would give 4 stars all the way across). I love this movie partly due to the Spiderman actor, he's good, and largely due to the scenary of Missouri - how I miss those woods.

P.S.S. My g-g-great grandfather (plus or minus one g) came from Pennsylvania Cavalry and brought his two slaves from PA (ironic, huh?) and fought for the Union in Southern Missouri against the raiders. After the War him and his newly-freed slaves share-cropped in fields next to each other and settled in Shannon County, Missouri (or rather helped settle that county, rather than merely settle in it).

I have sympathies both ways and am often torn on the issue of the Civil War/War Between the States. Sometimes I like to challenge Northern revisionism just like I do Southern revisionism on the topic. Plenty of both abound (here on the PB too).
