 1. I am racking my brain trying to think of a good actor to play Cleburne. Colin Farrell is Irish, but he doesn't have the rugged face. It is too boyish. Let me think about it. I just came back from some travel and I'm just catching up here. Maybe Edward Norton. I have often thought General Granville looks just like Johnny Depp. He'd have to be in the movie. Who would play John Bell Hood.?  He would he hard to cast.

2. Some other Civil War movie ideas could include:

The incident at Ebenezer Creek with Jamie Foxx as a fictionalized runaway slave, Denzel Washington, too.

A comic rendition of "Confederate in the Attic"

A portrayal of "The Widow of the South"

A movie about the Loretta Janeta Velaquez, who masqueraded as a male lieutenent throughout the war and wrote about it later...Angelina Jolie as Loretta.

The battle of Chickamauga

A drama based on the sinking of the Sultanna

A drama based on Jefferson Davis's flight from Richmond and eventual capture.

The seige and fall of Vicksburg
