What critics compared Gods and Generals to
Even in John Huston’s somnambulistic and (in my opinion) overrated 1951 film of Stephen Crane’s The Red Badge of Courage, some of the interior logic of the novel was echoed with a delicacy and depth of feeling that is sadly missing here.
As the great-great grandson of Union soldier Robert Lybarger, I have to confess that good American Civil War stories like Gone with the Wind, Glory, The Red Badge of Courage or even Pharaoh's Army do have a special place in my heart.
