Gettysburg (1993)
Der Film erzählt die Geschichte der blutigsten Schlacht, die je auf amerikanischem Boden ausgetragen wurde, der Schlacht von Gettysburg. In den drei Tagen dieser Schlacht verloren über 7.000 Soldaten ihr Leben, weitere 45.000 wurden verwundet. Sie stellt einen der Wendepunkte des Sezessionskrieges dar.Neben grandiosen Schlachtsequenzen werden auch die Konflikte zwischen den kommandierenden Offizieren auf Seiten der Konföderierten, verkörpert von Martin Sheen und Tom Berenger, ausführlich behandelt. Zudem wird durch die Episode um General Amistead deutlich gemacht, wie stark der Krieg die gesamte amerikanische Bevölkerung in zwei Lager teilte: der vormals beste Freund des Generals ist nun sein Feind.
