Unlikely Words

Gods and Generals was a cross between Ken Burns’ Civil War series, Masterpiece Theater/BBC remake, and any number of annoyingly aphoristic characters from any period drama based on history. The movie was based around the story of Stonewall Jackson, but it left out most of his well-known idiosyncrasies. If you have 3 hours and 38 minutes to kill, you might give this movie a shot, but know you’re in for the long haul; the long, boring haul.
