I agree. I think Col. Robert Gould Shaw got hit several times. And, he was way ahead of everybody else, and was killed on the parapet of Fort Wagner. May he rest in peace. May they all rest in peace.
There's nothing to be proud of. In fact, it's a genetic accident whether you're an U.S. citizen, Italian or Australian. Being proud of being American or any other nationality actually couldn't be more trivial or stupid in the first place. Actually, the U.S. has been responsible for 78% of all armed conflicts in the world since 1950 (2nd year of NATO). And, as we speak, eight out of ten people are fleeing their home countries because of U.S. military interventions. The U.S. has been the #1 bully and state terrorist of the world for the past 73 years. The U.S. stands for war, destruction, havoc, lies, broken treaties, refugee crises, child poverty, high mortality rate among children. Ask the people in Iraq, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Mali, Somalia or the many Latin American countries in Central America that have been targeted by the U.S. in that phony and utterly racist "War On Drugs", designed by Nixon in 1974. And now, thanks to the U.S. once again, we're on the brink of a nuclear Holocaust because utterly corrupt and demented Joe Biden thinks it's safer to be in Kiev, Ukraine - literally in a war zone - to promise U.S. puppet Zelensky 500 million $ worth of instant military aid ,than being in East Palestine, Ohio, a small town where people will die in the next years and decades due to cancer, indirectly caused by corrupt and anti-democratic politicians in D.C.! If you're proud to be an American, you're just a chump who's dumb enough to still believe that bought-and-paid-for politicians and their corrupt watchdogs, the mainstream media, are nothing but honest and transparent truth tellers who are fighting for democracy and equality. Instead of that, you should finally pull your head out of your ass and start thinking - before it's too late!

Love this track! Transfixed since seeing & hearing it on the big screen in '89. Proud that 264 men & boys enlisted in Mr. Lincoln's Army from my hometown of Scituate, Massachusetts during the War of the Rebellion. Local population at the time was 2,100!
+Michael Whitehead Jefferson and Liberty! My research shows a Elisha Colman from South Scituate (Present day Norwell) who enlisted with the 2nd Regiment, Massachusetts Volunteer Heavy Artillery. Co.B. He was employed as a shoemaker at the time of his enlistment. Are you familiar with the diary of Captain Moses Rich Colman?
+AssinnippiJack I am not familiar with the diaries no. I know my branch of the Colman s were in shipping and the spice trade as Perry's father and grandfather were lost at sea in Indonesia in the 1830s.
+Michael Whitehead "Diary of Captain Moses Rich Colman" has been out of print for some years but hardcover copies pop up on e-bay once in a while. It's a fascinating look at a seafaring life in the early-mid 1800's. Period images including "Colman Hills" included!
@Nicholas-n6m Thanks. Yeah, it sucked, I had a bunch of my favorite CDs in it, including an original EP from a local band, pretty much irreplaceable. Even back then, CDs weren't valuable enough to steal, maybe the thief could get 20 or 30 bucks. So dumb. And it was in the gated parking lot of my apartment complex so it was either a neighbor or some friend of a neighbor, very sketch.
I love that about James Horner’s music! It’s as though he was always changing & growing as a composer but still utilized key elements of some or his earlier scores. I’ve noticed the same with the “Braveheart” soundtrack & “Titanic”.
@@lauriewojak1629 Guess what! All composers do that. They have all been doing that. From classical composers like Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms or Mahler to movie composers like John Williams, Jerry Goldsmith, Hans Zimmer or James Horner. There is absolutely nothing special or unique about it.
@Nicholas-n6m Rude? LMAO! Whatever you say. It's factually true what I said a year ago. Has nothing to do with anything else but that. Concerning that "reputation": I think that's complete bs, and, if true at all, it's a subjective matter or a point of view.

That's not banning the 'import' of slaves; that's simply putting a tax on them.
Well, maybe you should actually get rid of slavery's last remnant, the "just punishment" exception ahojld never have been added and should absolutely be destroyed.
Maybe, if entire race is systematically abused, mutilated, worked to death, raped and hunted for sport for 300 years, then saying "you are free now" does not wuite cut it.
My fav part about this movie is that they didn't change the historical reality. They let the good guys win instead of changing it to be politically correct. Stars and Bars massacred these inferior troops.

Cool man. 👍
Philip Hauk ,😁I am so jealous of you 😉
did you get a chance to see matthew broderick?
Which one are you Phillip?
Red Water Filmworks I’m sure
Best soundtrack in the universe
I agree
TOTALLY
Not surprised if it's coming from James, the man the legend himself!
It’s crazy that you can’t find the soundtrack on Apple or Amazon music. Glad we got YT.
Epic movie and soundtrack. Proud of our heritage, whether our ancestors (and us today) are Southern or Northern. RIP Mr. Horner, superb music.
This war and WWII sealed the fate for america

3:30 where the good stuff begins
A glorious soundtrack
Used to have this on CD. One of the best film scores ever. Love the fife band in this segment.
@Nicholas-n6m Hey! No, I think it was in a binder of CDs that was stolen out of my car in 2008, sadly :(

Super
I need to see this live. Hollywood in Vienna 2013 was such a wasted opportunity.
Amazing composition
jefferson and liberty love that music how many of you dont know from right to left all raised hands this is front is your rear now youre learning boyo
It all comes to a payoff when they show the Sergeant Major saluting them on the parade.
All Heroes despite the color of their skin....
Right around 4:32 you start hearing music that sounds similar to what he came up with for the launch sequence in Apollo 13.

Just watched this film and it was beautiful! I ad to listen to the score!
"LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT, LITTLE FINGER ALONG THE SEAMS OF YOUR TROUSERS 👖!!!... Marching is probably all they'll ever get to do Robert"
is this the OG Predator skit? What a tune!
"Remember what you see here today"
Tear it up!
That's right, SLAVES
One of my life long battles is which is my favorite score: Glory or Jaws????
3:40 Timon, it’s about responsibility …
What is the name of the fife and drum song that starts at 3:31 ?
Quinn Law Jefferson and Liberty
Thank you very much, Ray!
The original tune is Brittish, Gobby o!
@@vifgull no its irish

How many are left?
Attention (ATTENTION!!!)...Batallion!!!!!
3:34
600,000 dead Americans to end the evil of slavery and yet today they ask for reparations. Breaks my heart.
360,000.
The other 250,000 fought to keep slavery.
Slavery importation was prohibited 20 years after the Constitution was ratified. Article 1 Section 9.
