 Doc if you have not seen Pharaoh's  Army give it a try.  It is an interesting film.   Our book discussion group at the Drum Barracks each Christmas does a movie night where we bring films to share a snippet of with the group and discuss why we like them .  The only requirement is no matter how slight they have to be related to the Civil War.  We get Shirley Temple in the Little Colonel.  One year it was Red Skeleton in a scene where he is crossing a battlefield.  He is union on one side of him and Confederate on the other, Including a double flag.  Priceless Red Skeleton humor.

We had done Red Badge of Courage, Occurence at Owl Creek Bridge.  I have share Johnny Shiloh from Disney, Journey to Shiloh a made for TV movie hokey as can be but has an anti war message as it was the 60's 1960's .  We have watch snippets of Birth of a Nation, The General, and Three Stooges , This year included the Good the Bad and the Ugly with a Glorietta Pass battle like you wouldn't believe.  in one scene I saw a morter.  We have fun share our movies and eat popcorn .
