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

By	Heidi Denton (Randwick, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars EMOTIONALLY EXILIRATING! A WINNER!, June 23, 2002

By	Steven Hancock (Winston Salem, NC United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

"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+

5.0 out of 5 stars me and my skills, September 3, 2009

By	Harooki - See all my reviews

I was in this movie as an extra. I looked like Carroll Channing because they made me wear a wig. I got laughed at the whole time but the directors kept pulling me to the front for shots. It was shot in North Georgia and the day I was in the shoot it was cold and rainy and I was wearing a uniform that felt like it was made of steel wool. Have not seen it but I am sure it is fantastic since I am in it. I am going to buy it.
