In the movie, "Glory", what surprised me was when the soldiers agreed to burn down houses, destroyed homes, and attack innocent people. I was also surprised when all the soldiers stayed to fight when they were given a second chance to rethink whether they should stay or leave. I thought about whether the friendship of Shaw and Thomas existed during the actual war. I wondered how much the soldiers were willing to fight when Thomas was treated so horribly, but yet he stayed and fought on. I also thought about if the soldiers actually bonded and sang next to the fire, all grouped together as one. I learned that the black soldiers weren't treated like the white soldiers. When the white soldiers didn't get along with the black soldiers surprised me because why would they fight if they were fighting for the same reason. In my opinion, the movie, is pretty accurate to the actual war.
