This was a wonderful movie about the civil war, life & death, raising a family from a woman's view point! Her side of how life was.

I saw this movie years ago and loved it. Recently it was on T.V. and I only saw the ending. Since it wasn't being televised again, I did a search to see it it was available on DVD. To my delight I found it.

It was a pleasure to see a story told from a woman point of view during an era when women were to be submissive in their demeanor.
The Movie is better than the book! - Reviewed on 2008-02-08

Normally, it is the other way around. If you have read the book most people tend to pick a movie apart. In this case it is the reverse - the movie is vastly superior. Donald Sotherland is outstanding as the Captain and Diane Lane is wonderful as his long suffering wife. The book is much harder to get through as it skips around in time and is written as if by a rather uneducated woman from the south in the early 1900's. That said, I would highly recommend the movie, but probably not the book.

This is an excellent (fictional) story. Diane Lane and Donald Sutherland are awesome!! I would recommend this video to anyone interested in the Civil War. Great story!!

This was better than what I expected. I had read the book, and with a few very minor exceptions I think this rendition is just about as close to the original story (the *complete* original story) as any book based movie I've seen.
