One of the best documentarys/series on the war I have ever seen....


And I have watched and read so much on the Civil War over the years.
I saw this series many years ago. I am now watching it on Netflix. Since it is 9 1/2 hours long, I have been watching a couple of hours each night since Sunday.

If you are a history buff I urge you to check this out.

Hi MissMargo,

I hope you get a notification for my post. Me and another poster MovieManCin2 are great movie buffs just as you are. We are considering starting a "film discussion club" (or film discussion group if that's clearer). The idea as of now is that "members" of this club will choose a film by consensus (that we have all watched, or if you've not watched the film, you DO watch it) and then one of us opening a thread on that movie's board and posting discussion questions that we all answer. It's just a means to get us talking about films that we love and exchange ideas. We are looking for intelligent, knowledgeable posters to join this group, and we would love to have you join us to enrich our discussions. Would you be interested? This is not a formal thing. You can participate as much or as little as you like. If you are interested, please do reply to this post, and I will get back to you with more details. No problem if you're not interested. Thanks for your time!

I'm interested. It sounds like a great way to drum up some activity here and I'm all for that.
I confess that I haven't seen any recent films. I am mostly into classics.

I suspect that you have seen more recent films than I have (I haven't seen any), so of course that is not an issue. We are interested in classics. Great to have you on board. I will reply to this post soon with details of our initial meeting place. Look out for the notification when I message you.

Sounds good!

Hi MissMargoChanning,

I just opened a thread named "Film Discusion Group. Let's Discuss!" in the "Video" forum under the "Film Talk" category in which we can discuss a possible name for the group and also share ideas on how the group will function, and how we will choose movies for discussion. We would really love it if your shared your opinions with us. Thanks for sticking with this, and I'm sorry for the delay!!
