I watched this movie for the first time this weekend. I thought it was pretty accurate.Just wonder what anybody else who has seen it thinks.
I also think it is the best Civil War movie. I particularly like the authenticity of the dialog.
A riveting scene is in a restaurant when Mackeson threatens harm Jake at an unspecified time. In an instant Jake pulls out his pistol, cocks the hammer, and points the barrel only inches from Mackeson's face while answering, "When do you plan to do this mean thing Mackeson? Is this very moment convenient to you? It is for me."
It is based on a novel, Woe To Live On by Daniel Woodrell. I recommend the novel as well.
