Genre:,,, Stars:,,,,,,, Director: John Ford Country: Rating: 8.7 / 14 times Release: 1959-07-01 Synopsis: A Union Cavalry outfit is sent behind Confederate lines in strength to destroy a rail/supply center. Along with them is sent a doctor who causes instant antipathy between him and the commander. The secret plan for the mission is overheard by a southern belle who must be taken along to assure her silence. The Union officers each have different reasons for wanting to be on the mission. At the film's end, Dr. Kendall tells Col. Marlowe that he has decided to stay behind with the wounded Union soldiers. Marlowe replies, 'Even if it means Andersonville [a notorious Confederate POW camp]?' Andersonville did not exist in 1863, when this film was set; it was established in 1864. This same error is made by General Grant at the beginning of the film. Also the Confederates only sent enlisted prisoners to Andersonville. Major Kendall would most likely have been sent to Libby Prison in Richmond, which was in fact open in 1863. When the Union force is starting to hide from a passing Confederate unit across the river (which Ms. Hunter later tries to signal) Colonel Secord states 'Why doesn't he [Colonel Marlow] stand and fight, he's got a full Brigade'. This statement is completely incorrect and there is no doubt Secord would know that- Colonel Marlow states his unit will be 'culled down to a short Brigade' at the very beginning of the movie when he is explaining his plan to Grant and Sherman. And by that point in the movie the 2nd Iowa had already separated from the other two regiments, which would barely be a brigade at all, let alone a 'full Brigade'.
