The Fifty-fourth Regiment of Massachusetts, as the first black regular army in the modern history of mankind, its establishment, whether it is against the northern bourgeois government or the Confederacy of the South, is a huge controversy. There are huge difficulties in its establishment, formation and formation. However, whether it is for the battlefield of the Civil War, its military and military significance; or for the promotion of the entire American war of unification and even human civilization (the civilization mentioned here is a democracy-oriented civilization theory), are of extraordinary significance.

    The film "Glory" is adapted from real events. In the American Civil War, a black corps "Massachusetts 54th Corps" led by whites wrote a glorious page in the battle of Charles Stan in the south. War drama is the type of movie that earns the most tears of men, and it can also awaken the desire to win in the heart. The plot in the film is more protracted, but famous black movie stars such as Morgan Freeman Denzel Washington are very brilliant.

    Well, what should I say, I don't like war movies. The greatest joy in this film is seeing many of my favorite black actors look a little younger.

Glory quotes

  • Major Forbes: [as Col. Shaw is writing, Maj. Forbes approaches him with a letter from President Lincoln] They've done it.

    Colonel Robert G. Shaw: [Shaw reads the letter] Assemble the men.

    [54th is in formation in the pouring rain in the Camp Readville common area]

    Colonel Robert G. Shaw: In accordance with President Lincoln's wishes, you men are advised that the Confederate Congress has issued a proclamation. It reads: 'Any negro taken in arms against the Confederacy will immediately be returned to a state of slavery. Any negro taken in Federal uniform will be summarily put to death. Any white officer taken in command of negro troops shall be deemed as inciting servile insurrection and shall likewise be put to death.' Full discharges will be granted in the morning to all those who apply. Dismissed.

    Colonel Robert G. Shaw: [turning to Forbes after dismissal of troops] If you're not here in the morning, I'll understand.

    Trip: [turns to Sharts] Still want that blue suit, nigger?

  • [Rawlins interposes himself between Trip and the 10th Connecticut soldiers]

    10th Connecticut soldier: Stripes on a nigger... that's like tits on a bull!

    [the Connecticut soldiers laugh]

    John Rawlins: You're looking at a higher rank, Corporal. Now you'll obey, and you'll like it!

    10th Connecticut soldier: [sneers] Make me.
