I'm not usually a Matthew McConaughey fan, but he was powerful in this.

It's wonderful to see a view of the South in the Civil War that is not all "moonlight and magnolias". I know a few Southern apologists, who believe that the war was all about tariffs and nothing to do with slavery. I don't know if they've seen this movie.
