Glory (R 1989)
Directed by Edward Zwick, starring Morgan Freeman and Matthew Broderick
Running Time: 122 mins.

In this sweeping historical drama, a grave digger (Freeman) and a fugitive (Denzel Washington) join the all-black Massachusetts 54th Civil War regiment and triumph at an 1863 Confederate battle, facing great odds along the way. Big in scope, yet intimate in the telling, Glory won an Oscar for Best Cinematography.
Preceded by the cartoon: Bunker Hill Bunny
