Glory was quite a nice movie to watch. I really liked the transition with Shaw as he progressed through the movie. His past seemed irrelevant (Antietam) mid-way through the film, as he began to seek the interest of his regiment, whilst they become strong with him. He knew that the regiment wanted to fight, they wanted to win their freedom, and so he did his best to discipline them and show them that even interest and their strive for freedom is not going to win a war. Shaw's act with the "equal pay" was true, but I don't think that the colored men had it so that they were given respect from the white's. The "holywood aspect" of this comes to play here but, I don't think anywhere else. (I only have 1 more minute so yeah i'll end it here.
