I wonder if it is the same film I reported on in a post sometime back. It had no actors but was a narration of the battle showing the exact spots and monuments. I caught it after it started so I missed the credits. The battlefield was quite pristine without any evidence of modern times around it. It is worth watching.

I believe it is the same film that you referenced last year. When I saw the TV listing thats the first thing I thought of actually.

Is it sad that everytime I watch the movie Gettysburg or a documentary on the battle I still hope the Rebs will break the Union center? I can keep hoping! ... We Chicago Cub fans love to hope for the impossible :mrgreen:

That's why the Civil War is so fascinating even now. We Yanks are waiting for you Rebs trying to make it to the Clump of Trees. :) There are so many what ifs that could have changed the outcome: Ewell taking Culp's Hill, Chamberlain losing Little Round Top, etc. The Battle of Gettysburg had to be a Union victory yet the outcome was never a forgone conclusion until the 3rd day.

That short film is a special feature on my DVD copy of Gettysburg. Have watched it a couple of times. Not bad.
