- It is said that Matthew Broderickhas a distant blood relationship with Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, who he plays.
- Jane Alexander played the mother of Colonel Robert Gould Shaw. She had a lot of scenes, but it was basically deleted due to the length of the film. Many shots of Colonel Robert Gould Shaw and Major Cabot Forbes going to school together.
- Many of the scenes in the film are taken from a parade in 1988 to commemorate the 125th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, which was attended by 15,000 people.
- There is a scene in the film where soldiers are playing baseball, and then they are dismissed because they have not settled on some of the problems of the rise of baseball, but there is no doubt that the development of this sport was promoted during the Civil War.

Edward Zwick’s movies have beautiful shots, excellent music, and calm narration. As long as they are accompanied by a good story, the quality will never be bad. This early film absolutely meets the above conditions and has surprises. Under the oil painting photography, this beautiful melody has been floating around the ears, and the excellent performances of the actors are very contagious. It can be regarded as a model of the combination of Hollywood art and commerce.

The lyrical significance is greater than the story. The first regular colored army group war scene during the Civil War is really not in line with the modern idea. The opening is still the captain holding the knife and leading the people to slowly press the past, which can be called a living target. Fang is not too far apart to shoot bullets at each other, and he has no tactical strategy. In the end, he did not win the fort, but it is not too vulgar. There is no place to shine.
