It is now 2024 and I find that no matter how many times I have watched and listened too this epic film, and there have been many, I can not stem the flow of tears as these honorable men valiantly defend what they believe in their hearts is right. So firm in their belief that they would give their lives too defend it. The film is brilliantly acted, directed, edited and when infused with this magnificent score it is impossible not too get emotionally involved in what was one of the most epic depiction of the greatest event in American history.
There are very few moments in our history when so many gave up EVERYTHING to fight for what they believed in! Regardless of which "side" the cost were devastating not only to the men who fought the battles, but to entire families and communities, and nearly destroyed our nation. Randy Edelman brilliantly captures the raw emotion, heroic struggle, and sacrifice of the time. The whole movie is a masterpiece but with the tear jerking musical score it is one that will be remembered FOREVER with other great movies the likes of "Gone With The Wind"!
One of my favorites soundtracks from one of my favorite movies. The cast was amazing and the cinematography was up to the task of capturing the terrifying awesome scope of 3 of the the most pivotal days in human history. I am always awestruck when I visit the battleground. There ain't nothing civil about war but there is honor....sometimes.
There is a lot of beautiful music in this world that has been written over the ages. This particular song on the Gettysburg soundtrack has to top them all and that is saying tons!!! When the snare drums come in with the rolling bass and timpani drums it's like the cannons are going off and horses are running across the open field! I get goosebumps! Randy Edelman nailed it!
America can be proud of this masterpiece...I can spontaneously break in to tears whenever I hear this piece...They both fought to form a more perfect union...I'm proud us Irish played a part as well...🙏✌GOD BLESS AMERICA...++ ❤
Yes im still listenin to this in 2019. Who is with me?

Absolutely one of the best pieces of music ever composed. If you disagree, then you are from another planet .
2021 boys and girls, may both sides rest in peace.
An epic and emotional film that today begs the question: Have we Americans learned nothing?
