Gods and Generals-A movie review
Hi! Molly Pitcher here. I am going to tell you a little bit about a great movie about the Civil War. It is called Gods and Generals. It is mostly about the southern generals, Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee. I watched it about 2 or 3 months ago. It is really amazing to watch, because both Jackson and Lee were Christians! It really got me thinking! The North had the right ideas, about abolishing slavery and such, but they were always complaining about their generals. Whereas the South had the good Godly generals, but the wrong cause. Gods and Generals is a touching story that makes you realize how awful the war was, and that soldiers were just regular people! I really recommend it. There is some violence, but it isn't bad at all. Basically you just see people fall over during battles. Gods and Generals is a very educational and worthwhile movie. There's also a sequal called Gettysburg, but I haven't seen that. Well, stop by again soon! I will try to post on here more often.

a note from Rose
Hello Molly,
This is the first time I've commented on your blog. But It seems I am on your friends list! I have infact watched the said movie ,"Gods and Generals" I think it was very good! Robert E Lee infact did not approve of slavery but he could not stand to fight against his home state of Virginia.
That I would just add that.
Love to hear from you,
Rose |

Hello from Brielle
Hello Molly,
I enjoyed your post...I have seen the movie you were refereing to and I have also seen Gettysburg...I personally like Gettysburg better, perhaps because there are more battles, but either of the movies are very good. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Sincerely,
Brielle |

Yes, I've seen Gods and Generals. I've always seen the 2nd one. I really like them. I admire the Generals of the South even though, yes, they did have the wrong idea.
Did you know Robert E Lee, because he was againist president, died and was not counted as an American citizen??? About 15yrs after his death they swore him as an America... I think that is sad.

| That sounds like movie I would love to see! Robert E. Lee is one of my cousins, and the Lees are related closely to my own. This blog is completely for history, and I love it. |
