A must see for any Civil War buff!, 5 October 2006
10/10
Author: jrspeaks from United States

This is a must see for any true Civil War historian. I think it should be shown in every high school and college American history class in the country. Campbell Scott is simply amazing as Ambrose Bierce. Vivian Schilling and Nathan Darrow do an excellent job as Gertrude Atherton and William Randolf Hearst. The time period is represented very authentically as well as the political and social commentary of the time. The three Bierce tales--"Story of A Conscience", "One Kind Of Officer" and an all-new remake of "An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge" are recreated realistically and I had a real sense of being there instead of just watching from afar. I highly recommend this film to not only Civil War buffs but all lovers of good film making.
