I liked Gettysburg better... but I loved Stonewall Jackson... Stephen Lang did a great job. Then I learned that he played Pickett in Gettysburg. I thought Pickett was very charismatic... so Stephen Lang's stock has gone up considerably in my opinion. What a fantastic actor.

Oh, I agree! Lang was fantastic.

The characters of Pickett and Jackson are so very different, and yet he played them both with great skill.

But it's Jeff Daniels as Joshua Chamberlain that totally blows me away......I mean, could a role be any different from Dumb and Dumber??

I think I've seen Gettysburg 20 times, because our son, Eric, watched it every time he was home sick from school, from the time he was 8 until he graduated! :o)

Time to head for the basement and fire up the tube. Thanks for the thread!
