Interesting. I haven't seen the movie...2 in diapers makes it difficult for sitters for movies.

I know it covers the WBTS draft riots, does Martin gloss over the massive lynchings of black freedmen and escaped slaves by NYers?

I posted this not as a movie review (and cut a couple of paragraphs that referred to it) but because of Stern's comments on John Hughes. His other column, linked in #6, gives more details about this man, an under-appreciated hero.
