Richard Jordan is very good

Rating: 5/10 (20 April 2019)

Richard Jordan was the best actor in this long movie. He acted like he was actually in a movie.
Martin Sheen is laughably bad as General Lee. I don't think he's a good actor anyway but here he is woefully miscast. He plays Lee as a doddering old fool who has lost touch with reality.
Tom Berenger is a good actor but he walks through his part.
Jeff Daniels is good as Chamberlain.
Sam Elliot is good in a small part.
Everyone else sucks.
They used re-enactors for this movie and it shows. Just not believable.
The movie is long and ponderous lacking the tension that the real Gettysburg must have had.
It's a Ted Turner production so I didn't expect much.
Watch Turner in a small part during Pickett's charge
