- TriviaAt some point during production, several reels of film were lost on the way from a shooting location in Georgia to printing in California. Director John Frankenheimer had to reshoot the lost footage, which was about 40% of the trial sequence, in a new location in North Carolina, rebuilding parts of the original set to the last detail in order to match the coinciding Georgia scenes.

Featured review
Shows that neither side always knew what they were fighting for, as the case in most wars. Also shows the brutal side of humanity, as men on the same side killed one another when desperate...or at times just for slightly more comfort.
Don't really know who any of the actors were for the most part, and they were all GREAT! The main villain was little cheesy, but overall the acting was 9/10.
If you're interested in the civil war as it likely was, this is probably close to as real as you'll get as far as being a POW during it. Should be required viewing in high school.
