What are you smoking? Tim McGraw and his wife are so damn vain they ruined the show not to mention their daughter with that fake Hollywood southern accent. Utter trash of a show
@@kristofferhellstrom well Tim and Tom...Mr McGraw and Mr Hanks...or Tim McGraw and Tom Hank's...but figured you all would understand who I was talking about
What really got to me was the Union soldiers walking by, watching him with only curiosity, but to him it was something completely different. His men dead, and yet he lived. Then, this General, from a completely different type of world just sits next to him to console him about what he is looking at and what he experienced. He lost. He knew he lost, and that he will have to live in the world he wasn't born and raised to. And that will change him.
Let's also not forget that he lost ALL of his men during this battle. All of the people he was responsible for, he likely trained them, he lost them all. The General consoling him could understand because if the roles were reversed and he was in this same position he would have felt immense guilt and sorrow. The General is the only one in that situation that could understand what he must have been feeling. Thus he shows kindness and compassion, and allows him to grieve, before they take him in
@@callanightshade8079 And on top of all that, the horror that he was about to be imprisoned at a time of such great loss, which he ended up being for 3 years, coming out starved half to death.
Why would you think Those men in the civil war were from completely different worlds? Officers like Tim and hanks characters in each army were college educated usually and came from mostly well off families. They usually didn’t live more then a state or 2 away from each other and Most the times their lives were very similar. That’s one of the things that made the civil war so devastating. You have virtually the same person fighting each other.
@@johnford9070 Brother against brother. Some families were split in the middle where actual brothers ended up on opposite sides of the war. Imagine going to battle in a field out in the middle of nowhere and stumbling upon your dead brother or even worse shooting him yourself because he was wearing the opposite uniform.
Fun fact: Meade is the real life great great great grandfather of actor Matthew Fox. He was also only a brigadier general at Antietam but we'll let that slide because this scene is fantastic.
I think about this scene very often, I am constantly reminded how much I appreciated this show's maturity and respect for the audience. It showed us history as it was, without commenting on it, and letting us decide for ourselves how we feel about it. On a side note, my great-great-great grandfather died in a Union prison camp, so this scene in particular was poignant to me. We do not need to tear down and erase our history, if we do not learn from it, we are bound to repeat it.
I can’t believe this is acting. I literally feel that I’m sitting right beside them. Tom hanks is powerful. He has 5 words of dialogue and it’s one of the most powerful thought provoking scenes in tv history. (Yes I said that)
I was there as an extra and it was pretty underwhelming as they shot this with only their talking being loud enough for them to hear each other. It's nice to know what the hell they were saying finally after laying in the hot texas sun for an hour for them to get Just this scene.
This was a great scene. Gen. Meade''s character showing compassion and empathy was truly wonderful. What we didn't see, Gen. Meade suddenly gets up, slaps Captain Dutton on the back three times and says, "Welp son! Time to go to prison - get on up!"
@@vittoriolepporio122 damned old goggle eyed snapping turtle. I was kinda hoping they woulda done up his eyes to give the impression of Meade’s odd facial features.
@@ChrisInAVan look at the death toll, they weren't easy on the union. No pows .. The rebs really tore there ass with half the men and half infrastructure. Jackson knew it was a lost war if the didn't keep up the momentum after bull run.
I thought Yellowstone was the best ‘Western’ drama on television for ten years or more. Then 1883 came along. Same writer and producer. But with talent like Sam Elliot, Tim McGraw and the other actors as well as the scenery and story it’s hard to imagine a more perfectly drawn series. Well done to all involved.
A Union soldier consoling a Confederate soldier. Both men discarding their differences and acknowledging the distructive horrors of war. With the ideological divisions present today; we could learn a lot from this scene.
Would you be saying the same thing if it was a Taliban soldier confronting an American soldier? Or would you be calling it a “woke” piece of crap? War shouldn’t be romanticized and the people who defended slavery shouldn’t be either.
@@m.a.2282 yes, In fact I would. Defeated, bloody, battered, left to starve in a POW camp. Doesn’t seem all that romantic to me. Very very few confederate soldiers were fighting to defend the evils of slavery. Virtually all regular soldiers did not own slaves, they were fighting to protect their way of life, and the right of their state to determine its own way. While slavery was a part of this, it mattered very little, to a dirt poor farmer or an uneducated labourer. It took the North 2 years of blood and death before they even gave slavery a second thought. One can embrace the soldier, no matter what side, and still abhor the war.
Gotta say wasn't expecting much from this series, started it with the intention of turning it off immediately, 10 hours later it was ending and i was hooked.

After watching this week's episode of Yellowstone, I had to go back and watch the last episode of 1883 which led me to about an hour of clips, and I just got to say how brilliant the series is. This scene and so many others, little dialog was spoken but so much was said, its unbelievable. Taylor doesn't strick me as a RUclips comment reading guy, but just incase Mr Sheridan 2 years later and this is incredible and thank you for once again making a grown ass man cry
I know, I mean, can you imagine seeing the script? Five words, in 2 1/2 minutes, all spoken by ONE actor. Telling an entire story with "Captain", and "I know.... I know", and filling so much... Brilliant acting - and writing!

Every factor you say. The main factor was they didn't want to give up slaves. It was a factor they knew in the soul was inhumane, but didn't have the resolve to end it and avoid a war.
It was American against American. Family against family. It was a slaughter unlike any other. And it was between fellow Americans! That’s the sadness. That’s the fact and that’s the truth. Hundreds of thousands of northern troops were killed to free others. Even if it meant killing their own kind.

Tom Hanks says five words in three lines and is on screen for two minutes. Maybe the best scene of the entire series, and the series was awesome. I enjoy Civil War history, so my opinion is probably biased, but if this scene isn't top three of the series, I would struggle to name three better. Tom Hanks takes this little, tiny part, and elevates it to the point where you want to see a frickin spin-off series with him as General Meade.
before I got the privilege to see 1883 i believed that dances with wolves was the best story telling work of this genre. 1883 has now taken that spot. this show is incredible. the acting. the story itself. the narration the music. everything is perfect. even down to the casting. every single role had the perfect actor for that spot. bravo to everyone involved.
@@Scorpio.1989 HELL yes. We've had Cold Mountain, Free State of Jones, Lincoln's opening and the few Grant series scenes, actually getting a recent, gritty, realistic civil war film would be awesome..
This scene hit an unseen cord in my heart. In a moment, a Union officer and a Confederate officer remember that they are humans as they struggle to fully comprehend what they have just witnessed. A moment where they are not enemies, but just humans…in a war that had never been seen before in American History. Brilliant and powerful, I’d say.

@@comealongcomealong4480 yes i did read that. Enjoying 1923. Its more like a major movie than a tv series. Taylor Sheridan seems to have the midas touch!
I was an extra for this scene! I was part of the Union troops marching past Tom Hanks and Tim McGraw. When we went to reset and do another take, a friend of mine got to fist bump Tom Hanks. We also did the big attack with Sam Elliot.
@@bcarreon6409 when and where did you shoot it and how long did it take? I love behind the scenes information like this. Did Hanks have his own AC camper? Ha
@@Orangeflava The entire Civil War scenes were filmed on a piece of private property west of Fort Worth, Texas in Weatherford, Texas. They had built a mock up of Dunker Church that we would March past as extras. We are civil war reenactors and so a casting call went out to fill the ranks. We were able to build 3 companies of reenactors for both Federal and Confederate troops. The rest were just extras. Originally, we were told that we were actually going to be Confederate which suited us fine because we were building Antietam impressions for an event the following year. But at the last minute they said they needed more Federals. The two scenes we filmed took the course of a single day to film from sun up to sun down. The opening scene for episode 2 we probably filmed close to 50 times. Speaking of Tom Hanks, it was super hush hush that he was there. I wasn’t even aware of it until private conversations between the rest of the groups pointed it out. After we finished our lunch and we were going to to do the charge scene with Sam Elliot (which was probably the highlight for me, as I was fan of the 1993 Gettysburg film) a few friends of mine were hiking up the dirt road to the large hill were that set had been built, a white tahoe had pulled up and the driver side window had rolled down. The driver was Tom Hanks. He was very nice, very cordial and very professional. He told my three friends that they looked outstanding and looked the part. As for Sam Elliot, that was an experience I’ll never forget. In that charge we actually fixed real bayonets and our charge practically goes right into the camera crew. That made Taylor Sheridan very nervous but it went off without a hitch. My claim to fame is I’m one of the 3 younger looking soldiers behind Sam Elliot as we begin the charge. I don’t know how much was cut, but a friend of mine sent me screenshots and I’m front and center during the charge. So that was really cool.
At this point, Tom Hanks really demonstrates to be a very versatile actor, the makeup really makes him look like George Meade, you can feel he's so on character, just with the expressions of both characters, the atmosphere and the music, all that is enough to generate sentiment.
slow burner at the start, but ended like a champ. what a great mini series... too bad it is so dark and damn sad. sure make one glads he or she did not endure the hardship during these time. kudos to the stars and the amazing writing of Taylor Sheridan. What a storyteller you are Mr. Sheridan. LOVE Yellowstone, LOVE 1883. Cannot wait for Yellowstone season 5 this November. Anticipate for 1923.
from what one of my grandfathers wrote in his journal of his time and the end time of that war, it was my pray like his, that America, never again has a war such as this !! it was so sicking, sad and tore at the soul of all, .. WE MUST UNITE AND STAY UNITED ALL >>>>>
I'm glad that Tom Hanks finally got the rank of 2 star General. He's been Captain in pretty much every movie that I've ever seen him in up to this point.
I've watched westerns all my life and Tim Mcgraw blew me away with his performance on here. I thought he was a legit actor till I read the credits 3rd episode in. He stands out compared to other country singers doing acting. In my opnion.10 stars.
they are making a sequel taking place in 1920s. not much info is out besides they casted harrison ford and helen mirren which ppl assume they are playing as older james and margeret. by then their two sons should be in their 40s to 50s with kids of their own.
It left us wanting more which is what a GOOD show should do. It had to end for the next part to start, I have no doubt we will appreciate it just as well. Awesome series and so neat to see in this day and age. Steve…
@@stevelutzke9600 I hadn’t intended to watch 1883 but watched one epi and got hooked. When I found out it would only be one season, I was so mad bc I desperately wanted to see more. I would love a couple of more seasons to see how the Dutton’s claimed so much land and also to see how they went on after Elsa’s death
Ok first of all I didn’t realize that’s Tim McGraw playing James Dutton… now I’m just finding out that’s Tom Hanks during this scene! I paid so much attention to the show too!
When you live in Russia and are interested in the topic of the American Civil War, it is difficult to find good content on this topic. I guess...the presence of Tom Hanks guarantees the quality, must see
@@theinvisibleman2070 actually General Meade pursued Lee vigorously for 10 days after Gettysburg. It was completely nonsense for them to think it was easy to capture. He still had a strong well disciplined Army after the loss at Gettysburg. Search 'Retreat from Gettysburg ' narrated by Kent Masterson Brown. It was serious business. Meade also retained his position as Commander of the Army of the Potomac under Grant.
My sister and I binge watched the series and thoroughly enjoyed it. We were looking forward to the next season and are sad there won't be one but look forward to 1932.
I love the humanity of this scene. I'm so tired of this war being displayed as just good vs evil when it was clearly more complicated and intimate then that.
You ever look into the international banking cartels hand in fostering this and other American wars. Look into the greenback currency Lincoln had congress print to finance the war so as not to go into debt with the international banking interests that wanted to dismantle America. Today they run the Federal Reserve. A good book that covers the banking cartels hand in our wars, including the revolution, is Web of Debt by Ellen Hodgson Brown. I highly recomend it.
@@BasketCase-rr7tx Gettysburg isn't good for seeing both sides of the conflict; but it IS very good for seeing the battlefield action. The 'behind the battles' scenes are pretty inaccurate.
I will never understand film makers decision to portray historic events but ignore the real story and make it according to Hollywood history ....ruins the whole thing for me
This is the second time i have seen tom hanks having facial hair mid 19th century style. The first was that reenactment scene of tom hanks as nathan bedford Forrest while forrest gump talks about his name origin and his childhood in the early part of the movie forest gump (1994). The second time is this scene.
Such tremendous trauma strips away nationality and affiliation. You become simply human. These aren't two officers from opposing sides, they are two humans shaken by war.
Of all time, mate; of all time. It will be a world less filled with riches when he is no longer among us. It's been that way for a long time now. And what comes after... well, we all know what the film industry is like today. In the old days, the moral of the story was the detail in the art. Today, they make a story to imprint a moral. Sadly, it 'works' because the target audience doesn't know better.
This scene takes place in September 1862, either the day of or the day after the Battle of Antietam. What they're looking over is the Confederate dead at Dunker Church.
Problem I have with this scene is that if Tom Hanks is George Meade, then they got his rank wrong. Meade was a Brigadier General (One Star General) at Antietam. He was promoted to Major General (Two Star General) the following month.
When he says "I know" amazing two men who have seen the horrors of war, know what each is feeling at that moment
*That's the difference between men and women:* Women need to talk, yet don't really communicate and often don't say anything.

He was perfectly cast! It was literally a role he was born to play, and he lived it, completely!
Completely embodied the character. Perfect gut wrenching performance. Him and Elliot needed a Emmy for their work.

Thats a great comparison but no way undoubtedly can Dances with Wolves be replaced. It explains everything perfectly
Dances with Wolves is leagues above this show in every category. Plus this show has Tom Hanks, nothing can be too great that involves him.
Dances with Wolves is ass
Here we have the highest level of ingredients in visual storytelling: acting, writing, photography, costumes and music. An absolute TV masterpiece.

@@Scorpio.1989 HELL yes. We've had Cold Mountain, Free State of Jones, Lincoln's opening and the few Grant series scenes, actually getting a recent, gritty, realistic civil war film would be awesome..
@@citizenbobx A video about the lack of good modern films on the ACW?
What a great show this was , top-notch acting all around !!!!
Takes a lot of strength to forgive and to acknowledge.
Unfortunately true but we can do it with time even if it's hard. ✨🕊️✨
This scene hit an unseen cord in my heart. In a moment, a Union officer and a Confederate officer remember that they are humans as they struggle to fully comprehend what they have just witnessed. A moment where they are not enemies, but just humans…in a war that had never been seen before in American History. Brilliant and powerful, I’d say.
tom hanks has played leaders in many films. he is a man to look up to. gentleman. i love his movies.
he is an overpaid leftist wacko mutt who does what others tell him for a living. and foolish people think that gets him some kind of special consideration. he is NOT a person to look up to. shameful you think so
I bet this scene cost a pretty penny but still was worth it. Always good to see Tom Hanks. Oh and Billy Bob Thornton.
I think i read tom hanks is good friend of tim mcgraw so it was a favour.
I think he did it for scale -
@@suzannarobinson4726 Kept it in the family too. Did you see the brief scene on YT where Rita Wilson (Mrs Hanks) plays a storekeeper, offering Margaret a drink?
@@comealongcomealong4480 yes i did read that. Enjoying 1923. Its more like a major movie than a tv series. Taylor Sheridan seems to have the midas touch!
i put this moment right up there with the armistead death scene in gettysburg. Two of my favorite civil war on screen moments
This was insane to watch not knowing it was coming.
“Is that fuckin’ TOM HANKS?!?” 🤣
An unforgettable cameo!
Would be cool to see a prequel to this show that shows everything that Dutton and the wagon boss went through during the civil war.
As a Civil War reenactor, I’d LOVE that!!!!
An "1863"?
@@eliast2351 that would be the perfect year, right in the middle of the war...
A prequel to a show that itself is already a prequel?
@@PlumbPitiful
one prequel is never enough.
I was an extra for this scene! I was part of the Union troops marching past Tom Hanks and Tim McGraw. When we went to reset and do another take, a friend of mine got to fist bump Tom Hanks. We also did the big attack with Sam Elliot.
Great story, compelling and rich
No you weren't, Baine (jk). I was an extra in this. LOL! You made a good dead yankee. But man, it was hot, eh?
@@1942Dreamer Ey! Don’t use my real name here. But yes it was hot as the devil that day. That was a fun experience though.
@@bcarreon6409 when and where did you shoot it and how long did it take? I love behind the scenes information like this. Did Hanks have his own AC camper? Ha
@@Orangeflava The entire Civil War scenes were filmed on a piece of private property west of Fort Worth, Texas in Weatherford, Texas. They had built a mock up of Dunker Church that we would March past as extras. We are civil war reenactors and so a casting call went out to fill the ranks. We were able to build 3 companies of reenactors for both Federal and Confederate troops. The rest were just extras. Originally, we were told that we were actually going to be Confederate which suited us fine because we were building Antietam impressions for an event the following year. But at the last minute they said they needed more Federals. The two scenes we filmed took the course of a single day to film from sun up to sun down. The opening scene for episode 2 we probably filmed close to 50 times. Speaking of Tom Hanks, it was super hush hush that he was there. I wasn’t even aware of it until private conversations between the rest of the groups pointed it out. After we finished our lunch and we were going to to do the charge scene with Sam Elliot (which was probably the highlight for me, as I was fan of the 1993 Gettysburg film) a few friends of mine were hiking up the dirt road to the large hill were that set had been built, a white tahoe had pulled up and the driver side window had rolled down. The driver was Tom Hanks. He was very nice, very cordial and very professional. He told my three friends that they looked outstanding and looked the part. As for Sam Elliot, that was an experience I’ll never forget. In that charge we actually fixed real bayonets and our charge practically goes right into the camera crew. That made Taylor Sheridan very nervous but it went off without a hitch. My claim to fame is I’m one of the 3 younger looking soldiers behind Sam Elliot as we begin the charge. I don’t know how much was cut, but a friend of mine sent me screenshots and I’m front and center during the charge. So that was really cool.
At this point, Tom Hanks really demonstrates to be a very versatile actor, the makeup really makes him look like George Meade, you can feel he's so on character, just with the expressions of both characters, the atmosphere and the music, all that is enough to generate sentiment.
yawn... hollyweirdo sycophant
I LOVED THIS ENTIRE SERIE'S.. EXTREMELY POWERFUL SCENE...
slow burner at the start, but ended like a champ. what a great mini series... too bad it is so dark and damn sad. sure make one glads he or she did not endure the hardship during these time. kudos to the stars and the amazing writing of Taylor Sheridan. What a storyteller you are Mr. Sheridan. LOVE Yellowstone, LOVE 1883. Cannot wait for Yellowstone season 5 this November. Anticipate for 1923.
One of the best series of all time in my eyes.
Taylor Sheridian is a great screenplay author - all his shows are amazing
I know it was "just" a spinoff, but I think it was about a thousand times better than that soap opera in wranglers it came from.
It truly was
Disagree, it is better, but Yellowstone is awesome too.
@@stevem2323 Yellowstone was good for about 2 seasons that’s it.
@@sortac08 Disagree, again. Absolutely mesmerizing characters, plotlines, nature, old school and no woke sjw bullshit.
"This" isn't a spin-off 1883 is a PREQUEL to Yellowstone maybe do your research before posting 🤣
from what one of my grandfathers wrote in his journal of his time and the end time of that war, it was my pray like his, that America, never again has a war such as this !! it was so sicking, sad and tore at the soul of all, .. WE MUST UNITE AND STAY UNITED ALL >>>>>
This is script writing done superbly, supported by very good acting. Quality scene.
I'm glad that Tom Hanks finally got the rank of 2 star General. He's been Captain in pretty much every movie that I've ever seen him in up to this point.
Fabulous series I wish it was longer
Hello ma’am, thanks so much and i really appreciate your love and support for my dad acting career...Ryland Cole Hauser...God bless
@@rylandhauser5591 Greetings from all the way over here in Ireland Ryland, Your Dad is a hell of an Actor!
Hello,how are you doing today?
didn't expect at all to, hanks to be there, even if that was short, that was amazing!!!
I've watched westerns all my life and Tim Mcgraw blew me away with his performance on here. I thought he was a legit actor till I read the credits 3rd episode in. He stands out compared to other country singers doing acting. In my opnion.10 stars.
Tom Hanks est un génie! Son "i know" est juste parfait!
What an awesome mini series leading into Yellowstone.
What an awesome series Yellowstone is I will start watching 1883 soon amazing tv so glad I found it can’t stop watching it 👍🏴
@@marshman5319 lol british licking american arse. 🤣.
They got Tom Hanks for 30 seconds
This series is pure poetry. The best film writing in ages.
poetry ,,drama and emotions,,,,,all in one
Awesome scene.
We want MORE 1883!
Long time ago... Very Profitable!
This series is the best show I have seen in a few years.
Quite a few....
Tom, Hanks looks great playing apart like this👍
They’re making a huge mistake not giving this show more seasons imo.
They can't .. the story is over. They are making another chapter in the Dutton Saga later on.
they are making a sequel taking place in 1920s. not much info is out besides they casted harrison ford and helen mirren which ppl assume they are playing as older james and margeret.
by then their two sons should be in their 40s to 50s with kids of their own.
Plus Hanks is doing another HBO miniseries about the bombers over Berlin in WW2, B.O.B. style.
@@dungeonmaster16 ? Two sons? Don't recall them
@@darrel7589 ..?
I was shoooook when I saw Tom Hanks 😂😂😂
this mini series was excellent. just wish the ending wasn't so abrupt
It wasn’t that bad
The ending was spot on
It left us wanting more which is what a GOOD show should do. It had to end for the next part to start, I have no doubt we will appreciate it just as well. Awesome series and so neat to see in this day and age. Steve…
@@stevelutzke9600 I hadn’t intended to watch 1883 but watched one epi and got hooked. When I found out it would only be one season, I was so mad bc I desperately wanted to see more. I would love a couple of more seasons to see how the Dutton’s claimed so much land and also to see how they went on after Elsa’s death
Ok first of all I didn’t realize that’s Tim McGraw playing James Dutton… now I’m just finding out that’s Tom Hanks during this scene!
I paid so much attention to the show too!
For someone of his generation (Hanks), being in a Western like this must be so much fun
When you live in Russia and are interested in the topic of the American Civil War, it is difficult to find good content on this topic. I guess...the presence of Tom Hanks guarantees the quality, must see
A good starting place for the subject is Ken Burns' excellent series of documentary films from about 1990. It's on one of the streaming services.
@@Piggy-ng1zd Ken Burns is a propagandist
I wish I still understood Tom Hanks these days. But those were the most 5 powerful words of his career.
Meade was a Brigadier General at Antietam.
1883, 1923, Yellowstone, best Western ever
The Great General Meade. The forgotten hero and Victor over Lee at Gettysburg.
@@theinvisibleman2070 actually General Meade pursued Lee vigorously for 10 days after Gettysburg. It was completely nonsense for them to think it was easy to capture. He still had a strong well disciplined Army after the loss at Gettysburg.
Search 'Retreat from Gettysburg ' narrated by Kent Masterson Brown. It was serious business.
Meade also retained his position as Commander of the Army of the Potomac under Grant.
1883 was fantastic!
My sister and I binge watched the series and thoroughly enjoyed it. We were looking forward to the next season and are sad there won't be one but look forward to 1932.
There is gonna be a second season
This scenes alway gets me.
I love the humanity of this scene. I'm so tired of this war being displayed as just good vs evil when it was clearly more complicated and intimate then that.
You ever look into the international banking cartels hand in fostering this and other American wars. Look into the greenback currency Lincoln had congress print to finance the war so as not to go into debt with the international banking interests that wanted to dismantle America. Today they run the Federal Reserve. A good book that covers the banking cartels hand in our wars, including the revolution, is Web of Debt by Ellen Hodgson Brown. I highly recomend it.
You should watch the movie Gettysburg if you want to see both sides to this very conflict.
@@BasketCase-rr7tx Gettysburg isn't good for seeing both sides of the conflict; but it IS very good for seeing the battlefield action. The 'behind the battles' scenes are pretty inaccurate.
@@MattStanton1999 Eh? the fact that you see both sides of the story is literally what that movie is known for.
The Confederates refused to end slavery. It's literally good versus evil.
It’s crazy that they’ve gotten legends like Tom Hanks and Harrison Ford for this franchise.
This is the best show ever made, in my opinion.
Watch hell on wheels
this made me tear up bad
What a powerful scene, and a great series from what I have seen, despite the glaring historical inaccuracies.
I will never understand film makers decision to portray historic events but ignore the real story and make it according to Hollywood history ....ruins the whole thing for me
Bruh how do you know soldiers pit against their own people wouldn’t feel this way?
"Now when I was a baby , my Momma named me after the great civil war hero...."
Tom Hanks is fabulous in this
Movie
That was THE best series I've even seen.
Over in the UK we think Tom Hanks is in a class of his own. Fantastic.
We also know he is a nonce (Paedophile). ruclips.net/video/l-jihfGm03o/видео.html
Here in the U.S. we can't shake the images of him in Mazes and Monsters and Bachelor Party.
@@jimkeskey Or epsteins island
This is the second time i have seen tom hanks having facial hair mid 19th century style. The first was that reenactment scene of tom hanks as nathan bedford Forrest while forrest gump talks about his name origin and his childhood in the early part of the movie forest gump (1994). The second time is this scene.
Pretty good trick to elevate the scene because Tom hanks is known and can transport emotions like few else
1883 is a masterpiece btw.
Such tremendous trauma strips away nationality and affiliation. You become simply human. These aren't two officers from opposing sides, they are two humans shaken by war.
Increíble!! ni me había dado cuenta ...Este es el primer capitulo!!
I loved this show. Watched the whole thing in one night couldn't stop watching it. Very well done all involved..💕
Two men. One nation. The horrors of war. Both different but both very much the same. You can feel it here.
great comments from all..cant add anything new, but will say i got choked ..incredible acting with not a word spoken by Tim..
If Tom Hanks can make Forest Gump believable he can play any part, he is that good, he's one of the best actors today.
Plus, he supports Aston Villa football club.
@@VanderlyndenJengold well that’s a plus
Of all time, mate; of all time. It will be a world less filled with riches when he is no longer among us. It's been that way for a long time now. And what comes after... well, we all know what the film industry is like today. In the old days, the moral of the story was the detail in the art. Today, they make a story to imprint a moral. Sadly, it 'works' because the target audience doesn't know better.
Yeah, great fellow, he even promised me an invitation to Epstein island, still waiting on it

Love 💕 this mini series..exraordinary..Tom Hanks is one of the best and greatest actors around..he's amazing.
Hello ma’am, thanks so much and i really appreciate your love and support for my dad acting career...Ryland Cole Hauser...God bless
General George Meade died before 1883. He passed with pneumonia in 1872
I think this scene is during the Civil War. So it's in the 1860s.
This scene takes place in September 1862, either the day of or the day after the Battle of Antietam. What they're looking over is the Confederate dead at Dunker Church.
Problem I have with this scene is that if Tom Hanks is George Meade, then they got his rank wrong. Meade was a Brigadier General (One Star General) at Antietam. He was promoted to Major General (Two Star General) the following month.
That's correct. The Brigadier General would've been Mc Clellan which was relieved and Meade was promoted. Or maybe they were portraying Mc Clellan?
Tim McGraw and Faith Hill should be ashamed (just kidding) of just how good they were in this series. OMG. They were amazing.
How could the Emmys not recognize Taylor Sheridan? Tom Hanks obviously has the intelligence to accept a role written by him.
I’m sure 1886 is seen as “problematic”, despite it being more than fair with the history of natives.
@@darrinsiberia Yellowstone has certainly turned hack, but 1886 was better than Stranger Things, Euphoria, Yellowjackets and Severance
@@darrinsiberia Who exactly is it supposed to fool? You get that he is an actor right?
@@darrinsiberia My bad, you did mention you were joking
