Civil War movies shed light on an important time in American history, but most are inaccurate in some way – and several feature major inaccuracies.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT There are several films that depict the American Civil War, but some of these movies contain glaring historical inaccuracies. While it's not possible to get everything correct about a well-documented period in history, some movies about the American Civil War seem to mix fact with fiction.
8 Shenandoah The 1965 Civil War movie Shenandoah follows Charlie Anderson, a quiet farmer who has no interest in joining the war until one of his sons is captured by Union soldiers. One of the best things about the movie is how it reflects the cultural and racial shift after the 1964 Civil Rights Act. However, there is a scene that shows Black and white soldiers in the same platoon. That's not historically accurate, as the U.S. military was segregated until after World War II .
6 Cold Mountain Cold Mountain is a love story that is set against the backdrop of one of the bloodiest wars in American history. Based on Charles Frazier's best-selling novel of the same name, the critically acclaimed movie tells the story of a Confederate soldier who deserts the war in order to be with his true love. According to a historians' review of Jude Law's historical romance, the movie used its creative license liberally.
