I totally agree . All was done superbly well. I do believe that Stephen Lang's portrayal of General Jackson was of award winning calibre. Oh, I forgot, the people who give out such things probably never read a book and think this was "made up stuff" to make the South look good.
Lang WAS General T J Jackson.

Nice screen name.
Recently, I had the opportunity to see the house at Guinea Station where the General died... extremely moving.

About Lang, I thought he did a great job. But I suspect that Stonewall Jackson was probably less bombastic than played by Mr. Lang.

He did however do an excellent job with the material he was given.

He was also excellent in the role of George Pickett, in Gettysburg. He made Pickett come to life for me.
