Yes, Julie, I have seen the movie and I enjoyed it. Hollyweird slammed it, Historians praised it, and well, I just thought it was a great production. Byrd is in the movie, however I failed to spot him.

They're gonna make a mint on the 3 CD set once the trilogy is complete. Because they've got something for each of your 3 basic types of Civil War buffs: your Confederacy supporters, your Gettysburg officianados, and your Union supporters.

Cuz as someone said on another thread, the 3rd part of the trilogy will probably be pro-Union. That would be a great strategy.

Byrd actually has about a three second appearance. When Robert Duvall makes his speach about God's will, shortly before the battle of Fredricksburg, you can see a guy in a white sheet standing behind and to the right.

Actually, Byrd is the one who says God's will be done", or something like that, right after Duvall's speach (he is standing behinf to the right witha redish type cap on).
