"Glory" a true-to-life story

Given the opportunity to watch Glory, gave me a true look into the soldiers fighting in the Civil War. We discussed about the daily hardships & dangers soldiers. Much more the discrimination colored soldiers had to bear. Glory allowed me to experience the actual physical & emotional challenges that the 54th Massachusetts Regiment had to face. I definitely think that most aspects of the movie were historically accurate, such as the dialogue of Robert Shaw’s letters. I find his profound feelings towards his colored regiment were truly genuine & sincere. Although, some I found rather hard to believe. Of course, I expect some tweaks from what really happened because it makes the story all the more dramatic. On the instance I was surprised when nobody left after the 54th were informed of what the Confederate Congress have passed. I later realized that colored soldiers had more to fight for in the Civil War. They fought for their country, their freedom, and for their equality. The movie stayed very true-to-life, even though I know some parts were a bit exaggerated. Overall, “Glory” was amazing. It was due to how the characters were brought to life as well as how they conveyed the content of true-to-life story, very inspiring & very poignant.
