5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent and Well worth a look!, August 21, 2000

This review is from: Class of '61 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Emotional and realistic portralial of the American Civil War and how it effected both north, south and those caught in the middle. Unlike some war movies which ignore the human cost this movie shows in detail the cost to the main characters. Class of 61' is one of the best movies that I have seen. The movie starts at West Point and shows us the last class before the war starts. The friendships between those of southern back ground and the northerns and how their friendships are torn apart by the war.

This review is from: Class of '61 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

"Class of '61" tells the story of the graduating West Point class of 1861 as the Civil War breaks out. It has fine performances and an exciting and almost 100% accurate recreation of the battle of First Manassas. A fine film! I hope it comes out on DVD soon! Grade: A+

This is a hard to find TV movie, except at Amazon, about the first days leading up to the Civil War from both sides views. It can't be transfered to DVD so forget that but really a good story.
