Poignant

Rating: 9/10 (21 December 2015)

Beautiful storyline paired with captivating cinematography.
The immediate change of scenes between the experience of black troops and white high society of the time made for an effective plot device and was able to capture the gap between blacks and whites. It also displayed the gap between free black men and former slaves, which eludes to the sectionalism within the country. This movie has given me a better understanding of the Civil War.
This movie is worth watching, I watched this movie with good friends of mine. We all agree that the best snack choice for this movie are waffle fries. Just in case you wondered. Glory clearly deserved every award it won.
