Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:05:04,628 --> 00:05:06,037
Lieutenant Freeman?
2
00:05:06,212 --> 00:05:08,166
Mrs. Hazard, ma'am, how are you?
3
00:05:08,378 --> 00:05:10,830
Just fine. Have you seen my husband?
4
00:05:11,044 --> 00:05:16,111
He left an hour ago. He's positioning a
battery over by the Rock Creek area.
5
00:05:17,205 --> 00:05:21,494
Thank you. Do you really think the
Southern army will invade Washington?
6
00:05:22,164 --> 00:05:24,118
Well, with the Rebs...
7
00:05:25,870 --> 00:05:30,609
Excuse me, ma'am, the Southern
army only 20 miles away...
8
00:05:31,118 --> 00:05:33,950
Well, better to be safe than sorry.
9
00:05:35,116 --> 00:05:38,150
But I'm sure your husband knows
more about a possible battle...
10
00:05:38,324 --> 00:05:40,691
...now that he has his transfer
to the sharpshooters.
11
00:05:42,654 --> 00:05:43,981
Sharpshooters?
12
00:05:44,195 --> 00:05:46,315
I'm sorry, ma'am. I thought you knew.
13
00:05:46,527 --> 00:05:48,399
No, I...
14
00:05:50,361 --> 00:05:52,232
Thank you, sir, for the information.
15
00:05:52,860 --> 00:05:55,808
Why don't you let me get you an escort.
16
00:05:55,981 --> 00:05:59,015
I can find my way, lieutenant.
Thank you.
17
00:06:14,766 --> 00:06:18,132
Little Miss Molasses with her darky.
18
00:06:18,349 --> 00:06:21,263
What you hear from Jeffie Davis,
honey child?
19
00:06:23,930 --> 00:06:26,132
Something wrong with your hearing,
Reb?
20
00:06:26,303 --> 00:06:29,503
We don't want any trouble.
Please just leave us alone.
21
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,801
Why don't you tell that to
your people that attacked...
22
00:06:32,969 --> 00:06:37,210
...our troops coming through Baltimore.
- Take your hands off that bridle.
23
00:06:37,426 --> 00:06:40,540
We're white men.
You can't talk to us like that.
24
00:06:40,716 --> 00:06:42,586
You're talking to us like we're slaves.
25
00:06:44,756 --> 00:06:46,083
Giddap!
26
00:07:03,333 --> 00:07:06,033
Primary field of fire, all four guns,
is across the river.
27
00:07:06,207 --> 00:07:07,862
Georgetown to the Chain Bridge.
28
00:07:08,412 --> 00:07:11,858
The secondary position will be
to cover the northern approaches.
29
00:07:14,618 --> 00:07:17,319
I'm looking for my husband,
Lieutenant Hazard.
30
00:07:17,700 --> 00:07:19,691
Thank you, sir.
31
00:07:20,742 --> 00:07:21,983
Excuse me, sergeant.
32
00:07:24,197 --> 00:07:25,524
Brett!
33
00:07:26,198 --> 00:07:28,105
Billy!
34
00:07:30,071 --> 00:07:33,897
I got a transfer. I'm gonna be
in the 1 st U.S. Sharpshooters.
35
00:07:34,070 --> 00:07:36,686
It's a new regimen just
authorized by Congress.
36
00:07:36,941 --> 00:07:40,473
I didn't want to tell you until
it came through. Isn't it great?
37
00:07:41,441 --> 00:07:43,894
You'll be in the thick of the fighting.
38
00:07:44,524 --> 00:07:46,680
Why couldn't you stay
with the engineers?
39
00:07:46,899 --> 00:07:50,262
Brett, I'm a soldier.
Soldiers are supposed to fight.
40
00:07:50,522 --> 00:07:54,300
Our ancestors fought so the U.S.
Could be free. I could make history.
41
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,674
By killing Southerners?
42
00:08:02,684 --> 00:08:04,637
I didn't mean your family.
43
00:08:04,806 --> 00:08:08,053
I know a lot of Southerners
love the Union and don't want war.
44
00:08:08,223 --> 00:08:10,379
But they're gonna fight
for the Confederacy.
45
00:08:10,598 --> 00:08:14,542
Good people will be killed. Is that
the kind of history you want to make?
46
00:08:22,426 --> 00:08:24,546
It's gonna be all right.
47
00:08:26,757 --> 00:08:30,287
Everybody says the war will be over
in one big battle.
48
00:08:30,881 --> 00:08:33,876
When I leave for camp, go to Belvedere
and stay with my mother.
49
00:08:35,628 --> 00:08:37,085
What about Semiramis?
50
00:08:38,710 --> 00:08:42,288
I'll make arrangements for her
to get safely to Mont Royal.
51
00:08:43,959 --> 00:08:46,115
Why are we fighting?
52
00:08:47,417 --> 00:08:51,076
Because you never told me
any of this, Billy.
53
00:08:53,788 --> 00:08:57,283
I don't want anything
to happen to you.
54
00:09:02,618 --> 00:09:05,152
If I'm to believe the Charleston
recruiting officer...
55
00:09:05,325 --> 00:09:08,855
...I'd better ride day and night to reach
Virginia before the war's over.
56
00:09:09,033 --> 00:09:12,443
- It won't be that easy, Charles.
- Most of us were born on horseback.
57
00:09:12,615 --> 00:09:14,604
We'll ride circles around those Yankees.
58
00:09:14,781 --> 00:09:17,018
There's three of them
to every one of us.
59
00:09:17,195 --> 00:09:19,647
I'll take those odds any day.
60
00:09:19,987 --> 00:09:23,648
It's a shame you gotta rub shoulders
with the president of the Confederacy...
61
00:09:23,819 --> 00:09:26,104
...instead of riding
with Wade Hampton's Legion.
62
00:09:27,276 --> 00:09:28,685
Orry...
63
00:09:31,315 --> 00:09:33,020
I'm gonna miss you.
64
00:09:33,647 --> 00:09:37,592
You're a lot more than a cousin to me,
Charles. You're like a little brother.
65
00:09:37,813 --> 00:09:40,763
So I don't want you taking
any unnecessary chances.
66
00:09:41,313 --> 00:09:44,677
- You know me.
- That's what worries me.
67
00:09:47,017 --> 00:09:51,139
Charles reminds me so much of Orry
when he went off to fight in Mexico.
68
00:09:51,555 --> 00:09:56,378
He came back from that war.
And they'll come back from this one.
69
00:09:56,596 --> 00:09:59,168
I can't believe what happened.
70
00:09:59,346 --> 00:10:04,084
Our dearest friends, the Hazards.
Billy, my son-in-law...
71
00:10:04,469 --> 00:10:08,332
- Torn apart by war.
- Maybe it won't last very long.
72
00:10:10,010 --> 00:10:12,330
I do hope so, my dear.
73
00:10:13,715 --> 00:10:16,380
The two handsomest men
in the Confederacy.
74
00:10:16,547 --> 00:10:19,579
You even make those uniforms
look good.
75
00:10:21,337 --> 00:10:22,913
Watch out, Aunt Clarissa!
76
00:10:23,087 --> 00:10:25,954
I may take you with me.
I can't live without your corn bread.
77
00:10:26,129 --> 00:10:27,407
Dear Charles.
78
00:10:31,541 --> 00:10:34,408
I'm not ready to say goodbye.
79
00:10:34,998 --> 00:10:37,201
I never wanted this war.
80
00:10:38,206 --> 00:10:43,323
But we'd be without pride and honor
if we let the North tell us how to live.
81
00:10:43,912 --> 00:10:47,407
There are things worth fighting for,
Madeline, this land...
82
00:10:47,578 --> 00:10:49,781
...our families, our way of life...
83
00:10:50,535 --> 00:10:52,110
And you.
84
00:10:55,409 --> 00:10:59,233
I can't wait till you become
Mrs. Orry Main.
85
00:10:59,405 --> 00:11:01,230
And once your divorce is final...
86
00:11:01,488 --> 00:11:04,817
...I'll get you to a preacher
quicker than you can say, "I do."
87
00:11:05,236 --> 00:11:07,274
I do.
88
00:11:17,732 --> 00:11:21,724
Sport, the war will be over before that
general gets through saying goodbye.
89
00:11:35,141 --> 00:11:38,802
Charles can't wait to get on the road
now that he's heard Virginia belles...
90
00:11:38,974 --> 00:11:41,212
...outshine even our
South Carolina beauties.
91
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,255
Mother.
92
00:11:46,220 --> 00:11:47,962
You take care of yourself.
93
00:11:48,137 --> 00:11:51,999
Oh, Orry, I promised myself
I wouldn't cry.
94
00:11:52,219 --> 00:11:53,676
Now...
95
00:11:53,844 --> 00:11:58,000
There'll be no time for tears. You'll be
too busy running this plantation.
96
00:12:19,625 --> 00:12:21,415
There's a war waiting on us.
97
00:12:21,625 --> 00:12:23,744
Time's a-wasting.
98
00:12:35,660 --> 00:12:37,317
Cuffey.
99
00:12:38,366 --> 00:12:41,280
Don't worry, Mr. Orry.
I'll take care of everything.
100
00:12:41,448 --> 00:12:43,107
I know you will.
101
00:12:58,775 --> 00:13:00,766
Race you to the war!
102
00:13:55,254 --> 00:13:57,078
Take care, Charles.
103
00:14:50,064 --> 00:14:53,560
I must say, gentlemen, I consider this
a great honor, and I thank you.
104
00:14:53,730 --> 00:14:57,012
You do us the honor, Mr. LaMotte,
accepting your commission.
105
00:14:57,189 --> 00:14:59,225
All of us on the militia general staff...
106
00:14:59,396 --> 00:15:02,178
...feel your qualifications
make you an ideal colonel...
107
00:15:02,353 --> 00:15:06,509
...to turn our green volunteers into
soldiers to defend South Carolina.
108
00:15:06,683 --> 00:15:10,094
I shall start recruiting in my
district immediately, sir.
109
00:15:10,265 --> 00:15:13,097
May I tell you how much
we've enjoyed your hospitality...
110
00:15:13,265 --> 00:15:17,966
...Colonel LaMotte, although I must say
I did miss seeing your lovely wife.
111
00:15:18,137 --> 00:15:20,044
Is Mrs. LaMotte ailing?
112
00:15:20,428 --> 00:15:24,208
Mrs. LaMotte is no longer
residing at Resolute.
113
00:15:24,844 --> 00:15:26,668
You'll have to forgive Mr. Clay.
114
00:15:26,844 --> 00:15:30,586
He's been in legislature at Columbia
since the Fort Sumter crisis...
115
00:15:30,756 --> 00:15:32,995
...and wasn't aware of your
domestic situation.
116
00:15:33,172 --> 00:15:37,212
My domestic situation is
of no concern to anyone, sir.
117
00:15:38,713 --> 00:15:40,704
Gentlemen, good day.
118
00:15:41,588 --> 00:15:43,294
Good day, sir.
119
00:16:09,118 --> 00:16:13,655
Well, sure and you're a fine
figure of a man, George Hazard.
120
00:16:15,365 --> 00:16:17,236
You look as handsome in that uniform...
121
00:16:17,406 --> 00:16:20,854
...as you did the first night
we danced together in Mexico.
122
00:16:26,528 --> 00:16:30,436
After the Mexican War, I swore
I'd never wear a uniform again.
123
00:16:30,691 --> 00:16:35,811
But I just can't sit here in Lehigh Station
while the country's being torn in half.
124
00:16:36,773 --> 00:16:38,977
I agree with the president.
125
00:16:39,481 --> 00:16:42,183
The Union must be preserved.
126
00:16:43,562 --> 00:16:44,971
But regulations or not...
127
00:16:45,144 --> 00:16:48,639
...they'll have to court-martial me
before I wear this ridiculous hat.
128
00:16:49,768 --> 00:16:52,552
Even I'd have to think twice
before wearing that thing.
129
00:16:52,726 --> 00:16:56,387
I shouldn't be going to Washington.
I should have requested a field command.
130
00:16:58,098 --> 00:17:01,510
Now, George, the president
wants you on his staff.
131
00:17:01,722 --> 00:17:03,759
Not just because you're a West Pointer.
132
00:17:04,429 --> 00:17:07,628
It's because he knows an
exceptional man, just as I do.
133
00:17:07,845 --> 00:17:12,298
My brother's close to Lincoln, and he
feels the president will mobilize us...
134
00:17:12,468 --> 00:17:15,548
...and not just the military,
but the private sector too.
135
00:17:15,716 --> 00:17:17,423
That includes Hazard Iron...
136
00:17:20,549 --> 00:17:24,458
Isabel, I hope we're doing the right
thing. There is a war on.
137
00:17:24,964 --> 00:17:27,165
A party like this might be
in bad taste.
138
00:17:27,378 --> 00:17:30,624
We're just celebrating the departure
of our very own hero.
139
00:17:30,919 --> 00:17:34,331
After all, we're the most prominent
family in this part of the state.
140
00:17:34,501 --> 00:17:36,787
People will see it as our patriotic duty.
141
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,322
I'm not sure how happy George
is with all this fanfare.
142
00:17:40,540 --> 00:17:45,242
The army's best officers have resigned
and gone south, which they'll regret.
143
00:17:45,412 --> 00:17:48,160
Because the Confederate
cause may already be lost.
144
00:17:48,370 --> 00:17:50,443
Those of us who run important
companies...
145
00:17:50,619 --> 00:17:53,487
...create the engine that'll power
the Union to quick victory.
146
00:17:53,660 --> 00:17:56,490
As a matter of fact, I've already
drawn up plans...
147
00:18:10,568 --> 00:18:13,270
I'm afraid you're going to
have to be the colonel.
148
00:18:13,569 --> 00:18:17,810
Thank you very much, but I haven't
done anything yet to deserve this.
149
00:18:19,692 --> 00:18:23,849
I'd like to think that this is not only for
those of us who are going off to war...
150
00:18:24,065 --> 00:18:25,936
...but for those who've already left...
151
00:18:26,105 --> 00:18:28,806
...including my younger brother,
Lt. William Hazard...
152
00:18:28,980 --> 00:18:32,474
...and especially for those who
are staying here at home...
153
00:18:32,645 --> 00:18:37,515
...working for the Union cause
with the same dedication and spirit.
154
00:18:37,686 --> 00:18:42,423
Including my eldest brother, Stanley,
who will run Hazard Iron in my absence.
155
00:18:45,100 --> 00:18:47,005
Thank you very much.
156
00:18:54,094 --> 00:18:57,541
- We have confidence in you, Stanley.
- Thank you, George.
157
00:18:57,718 --> 00:19:00,124
- You'll do a great job. Good luck.
- Thank you.
158
00:19:00,301 --> 00:19:04,247
All of this makes me know
you really are going to leave us.
159
00:19:04,425 --> 00:19:07,123
I'm going to miss you both so much.
160
00:19:10,879 --> 00:19:14,871
- Your guests are eager to meet you.
- Thank you, Isabel.
161
00:19:15,169 --> 00:19:16,496
Mother.
162
00:19:22,166 --> 00:19:25,993
Don't let sentiment interfere
with our plans, my darling.
163
00:19:26,207 --> 00:19:30,909
Now isn't just a chance
to profit from this foolish war...
164
00:19:31,081 --> 00:19:34,695
...but for you to be the man
you've always wanted to be.
165
00:20:09,065 --> 00:20:12,762
General. President Davis is waiting.
166
00:20:14,565 --> 00:20:16,804
Mr. President, I appreciate
your sentiments...
167
00:20:16,980 --> 00:20:19,135
...but we simply cannot afford
to temporize.
168
00:20:19,311 --> 00:20:21,716
The North will strangle the South
if we do.
169
00:20:21,895 --> 00:20:23,719
Excuse me. I was told
to join you...
170
00:20:23,893 --> 00:20:27,587
Indeed, sir. Gentlemen,
Brigadier General Orry Main.
171
00:20:27,848 --> 00:20:31,889
General Robert E. Lee, my military
adviser, and members of my Cabinet.
172
00:20:32,349 --> 00:20:36,588
Our agents in the federal capital
have shown us how the North...
173
00:20:36,971 --> 00:20:41,011
...plans to crush us in the coils
of a giant water snake.
174
00:20:41,345 --> 00:20:43,798
That is precisely the situation, sir.
175
00:20:43,969 --> 00:20:47,829
All down the Eastern seaboard
to the Florida Keys...
176
00:20:48,006 --> 00:20:50,838
...then along the gulf to New Orleans.
177
00:20:51,006 --> 00:20:53,625
Their navy would
seal off the Confederacy.
178
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:58,289
They will send their western army
south to secure the Border States.
179
00:20:58,797 --> 00:21:02,207
- And cut the Confederacy in two.
- Never. Never.
180
00:21:02,378 --> 00:21:03,999
But it would be daring.
181
00:21:04,168 --> 00:21:07,913
They could squeeze us to death by
cutting off our supplies and weapons...
182
00:21:08,083 --> 00:21:10,618
...from Texas, the ports
of Mexico and Europe.
183
00:21:10,791 --> 00:21:13,244
Scott, their general in chief
and a Virginian...
184
00:21:13,540 --> 00:21:16,027
...opposed this far-fetched strategy.
185
00:21:16,205 --> 00:21:18,279
The man is a traitor to the South.
186
00:21:18,455 --> 00:21:22,862
To be a Southerner and believe in the
Union does not make one a traitor, sir...
187
00:21:23,038 --> 00:21:24,528
...or I would not be here.
188
00:21:24,744 --> 00:21:29,531
I realize you turned down Lincoln's
offer to command the Yankee armies...
189
00:21:29,702 --> 00:21:32,269
...but I had no idea...
- Mr. President...
190
00:21:32,449 --> 00:21:35,400
...I believe secession is
unconstitutional...
191
00:21:35,573 --> 00:21:39,401
...and slavery is a moral and political
evil in any society.
192
00:21:39,614 --> 00:21:41,569
Then why have you joined us?
193
00:21:42,363 --> 00:21:45,476
Because I could not draw
my sword against Virginia.
194
00:21:46,109 --> 00:21:48,147
My loyalty and my affections...
195
00:21:48,317 --> 00:21:52,180
...and those of my family for five
generations belong to her.
196
00:21:52,358 --> 00:21:54,893
That is why I'm here, sir.
197
00:21:55,232 --> 00:21:59,095
Now, if we are to have any
chance at all to defeat the North...
198
00:21:59,271 --> 00:22:04,057
...we must enlist our own snake and
strike like a cobra, right at their vitals.
199
00:22:04,436 --> 00:22:08,216
- The federal capital of Washington...
- Sir, I do not agree with you!
200
00:22:08,435 --> 00:22:12,428
Many of our state militias would
refuse to join an invasion of the North.
201
00:22:12,643 --> 00:22:16,006
Mr. President, if you allow
the individual states to dictate our...
202
00:22:16,181 --> 00:22:19,262
Lincoln maneuvered us into firing
the first shot at Fort Sumter.
203
00:22:19,431 --> 00:22:21,919
I'll not let him brand me
the aggressor again.
204
00:22:22,097 --> 00:22:26,089
Next time, the North
will be the first to fire!
205
00:22:27,429 --> 00:22:31,170
Enough for today, gentlemen.
General Main?
206
00:22:33,634 --> 00:22:36,252
You must be wondering
why I summoned you here.
207
00:22:36,467 --> 00:22:39,666
- To be honest, sir, yes.
- Your cotton mill in South Carolina...
208
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,954
...was one of the first in
the South and very successful.
209
00:22:43,628 --> 00:22:47,538
We showed excellent profit, but now
the mill is producing war materials.
210
00:22:47,711 --> 00:22:51,159
My partner and I had to liquidate,
as he's from Pennsylvania.
211
00:22:51,377 --> 00:22:56,449
That's another tragedy in all this: The
destruction of old and dear friendships.
212
00:22:56,710 --> 00:23:00,368
George and I hope to continue
that friendship someday, sir.
213
00:23:01,915 --> 00:23:03,406
Son...
214
00:23:04,872 --> 00:23:08,366
My government desperately
needs your expertise.
215
00:23:08,536 --> 00:23:11,651
I needn't tell you how few factories
we have in the South.
216
00:23:11,825 --> 00:23:15,191
- And the shortage of raw materials...
- I know, sir. I know.
217
00:23:15,367 --> 00:23:19,988
That's why I need you. To make our
war machine as efficient as possible.
218
00:23:20,533 --> 00:23:22,487
I'll do my best. You have my word.
219
00:23:23,323 --> 00:23:25,606
That's all any of us can do.
220
00:23:29,028 --> 00:23:33,068
The Union has a substantial force here,
beyond the Blue Ridge Mountains...
221
00:23:33,235 --> 00:23:36,019
...60 miles to the west
of their capital.
222
00:23:36,610 --> 00:23:39,358
So we've had to post
11,000 of our men...
223
00:23:39,526 --> 00:23:43,302
...to stop them from invading
the Shenandoah Valley.
224
00:23:44,106 --> 00:23:48,761
Now the main Yankee army is
massing here, outside Washington.
225
00:23:49,687 --> 00:23:51,926
Looks like they'll drive
through eastern Virginia.
226
00:23:52,104 --> 00:23:54,934
That's probably where
we'll have to fight them.
227
00:23:55,226 --> 00:23:58,010
Captain Main, ride north of Centerville.
228
00:23:58,184 --> 00:24:03,136
See how big a force they have, and
if they appear ready to move south.
229
00:24:03,348 --> 00:24:07,424
Don't take risks trying to take
a prisoner. I need information...
230
00:24:08,307 --> 00:24:10,508
...not dead scouts.
231
00:24:11,803 --> 00:24:14,966
- Yes, sir.
- Good luck, captain.
232
00:24:19,177 --> 00:24:21,747
Oh, that's just fine, corporal.
233
00:24:23,548 --> 00:24:25,833
- A haircut?
- A trim.
234
00:24:26,006 --> 00:24:29,750
Just because there's a war on doesn't
mean we stop being gentlemen.
235
00:24:30,296 --> 00:24:34,668
- Thank you, corporal.
- Ambrose, you never cease to amaze me.
236
00:24:34,836 --> 00:24:36,459
Well, thank you, Charles.
237
00:24:37,127 --> 00:24:39,827
Come on. I need a volunteer,
and you're it.
238
00:24:41,916 --> 00:24:43,906
A volunteer.
239
00:25:21,941 --> 00:25:23,813
Yankees.
240
00:25:58,596 --> 00:26:01,261
Stay off to the woods.
Maybe we can lose them.
241
00:26:21,835 --> 00:26:23,162
It's a woman.
242
00:26:30,583 --> 00:26:32,951
We got enough trouble
without borrowing more.
243
00:27:07,401 --> 00:27:09,724
Took you long enough
to decide to help me.
244
00:27:09,901 --> 00:27:11,392
Might at least say thank you.
245
00:27:11,566 --> 00:27:16,019
Just get me out of this mess. I gotta get
these medicines through to your troops.
246
00:27:20,061 --> 00:27:22,052
I'll take her.
You detour the Yankees.
247
00:27:22,270 --> 00:27:27,306
- We'll meet at the fork near the river.
- I see rank has certain privileges.
248
00:27:33,890 --> 00:27:35,513
Boys! Back!
249
00:28:06,004 --> 00:28:08,538
I can take care of myself, captain.
250
00:28:09,378 --> 00:28:11,249
I'm sure you can.
251
00:28:40,532 --> 00:28:43,397
- About time you got here.
- Those Yankees could double back.
252
00:28:43,612 --> 00:28:46,183
Last time I saw them
they were chasing their tails.
253
00:28:46,361 --> 00:28:48,980
My farm's a few miles up the road.
Let's not sit here.
254
00:28:49,194 --> 00:28:52,062
That does it. You could
show us a little gratitude.
255
00:28:52,319 --> 00:28:55,518
I'm sorry. Augusta Barclay, captain.
256
00:28:56,027 --> 00:28:57,518
Charles Main.
257
00:28:58,025 --> 00:29:02,515
- Ambrose Pell.
- I am grateful, more than you know.
258
00:29:02,732 --> 00:29:06,261
I've been smuggling quinine and
morphine from Union hospitals.
259
00:29:06,438 --> 00:29:07,847
If they'd caught me...
260
00:29:08,021 --> 00:29:10,934
Couldn't let anything happen
to a Virginia belle, could we?
261
00:29:11,102 --> 00:29:13,472
We'll see you get home
safely, ma'am.
262
00:29:45,506 --> 00:29:47,212
Hello!
263
00:29:49,546 --> 00:29:51,702
Ma'am, we were
worried about you.
264
00:29:51,921 --> 00:29:56,326
I ran into these officers on the road,
and I must say, I'm awful glad I did.
265
00:29:56,501 --> 00:30:00,327
Captain Main, Lieutenant Pell,
this is Washington and his son, Boz.
266
00:30:00,500 --> 00:30:01,909
We'll see to your horses.
267
00:30:02,083 --> 00:30:05,448
- We'd best be on our way.
- Let me offer you some supper.
268
00:30:05,624 --> 00:30:06,903
It's the least I can do.
269
00:30:07,082 --> 00:30:10,527
- Thanks, but...
- We'd be honored to accept your offer.
270
00:30:10,705 --> 00:30:15,277
A man has to eat, and I have a feeling
the lady's cooking's better than yours.
271
00:30:15,661 --> 00:30:18,823
I'm not fighting for the South
if it means keeping slavery.
272
00:30:18,992 --> 00:30:23,363
I'm fighting for the place where I live.
That's why most of the men joined up.
273
00:30:23,615 --> 00:30:26,316
Sometimes I wonder if
Mr. Davis understands that.
274
00:30:26,699 --> 00:30:30,904
- I think he does, deep down.
- Like you?
275
00:30:32,531 --> 00:30:34,486
I don't believe in this war.
276
00:30:34,654 --> 00:30:38,265
Just doing what I can to make things
easier for those who have to fight it.
277
00:30:43,275 --> 00:30:45,016
Yes...
278
00:30:45,650 --> 00:30:48,564
Thank you for the fine meal, ma'am,
but we have to leave.
279
00:30:48,941 --> 00:30:51,476
I want to reach the Yankee
encampments before morning.
280
00:30:53,522 --> 00:30:56,554
Well, I'll get the horses.
Excuse me, ma'am.
281
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:09,343
Does your husband object to the work
you're doing? It seems a bit dangerous.
282
00:31:10,222 --> 00:31:14,926
My husband died a few years ago.
He was a good man.
283
00:31:16,221 --> 00:31:20,874
Older than me. Learned a
great deal from him.
284
00:31:22,217 --> 00:31:24,456
Sounds like you really miss him.
285
00:31:25,508 --> 00:31:28,837
With all the work there is to do,
and my other activities...
286
00:31:29,216 --> 00:31:31,502
...there's not much time to be lonely.
287
00:31:34,796 --> 00:31:36,951
Thank you again, Mrs. Barclay.
288
00:31:37,170 --> 00:31:38,579
It's Augusta, captain.
289
00:31:51,582 --> 00:31:53,371
- Good luck.
- Goodbye.
290
00:31:54,248 --> 00:31:57,410
- Take care of yourself, Washington.
- Goodbye, captain.
291
00:31:57,579 --> 00:32:00,779
- Thank you very much, ma'am.
- Goodbye, Boz.
292
00:32:01,870 --> 00:32:04,357
Captain, lieutenant.
293
00:32:11,282 --> 00:32:13,818
That is some kind of lady.
294
00:32:18,113 --> 00:32:19,735
Good night.
295
00:32:37,105 --> 00:32:38,597
Mrs. Grady?
296
00:32:38,896 --> 00:32:40,851
I'm sorry to keep you waiting so long.
297
00:32:41,020 --> 00:32:44,102
I had difficulty finding your letter
of application.
298
00:32:44,312 --> 00:32:47,011
I sent it when I first heard
about the nursing corps.
299
00:32:47,392 --> 00:32:50,638
I have many skills,
and I can learn others very quickly.
300
00:32:50,808 --> 00:32:54,469
- I'm afraid there's more to it than that.
- I don't understand.
301
00:32:54,765 --> 00:32:57,087
Sit, please. Mary?
302
00:32:59,305 --> 00:33:01,839
We make it a point to find out
as much as possible...
303
00:33:02,011 --> 00:33:04,168
...about the women who apply to us.
304
00:33:04,344 --> 00:33:08,420
Perhaps you've heard that Mrs. Dix is
quite concerned that we don't attract...
305
00:33:08,594 --> 00:33:10,880
...well, the wrong sort of woman.
306
00:33:12,093 --> 00:33:14,497
Are you saying that I'm the wrong
sort of woman?
307
00:33:14,842 --> 00:33:16,913
Let me be direct, Mrs. Grady.
308
00:33:17,088 --> 00:33:21,662
We've learned you spent three
months in an asylum for the insane.
309
00:33:21,838 --> 00:33:25,997
That was after my husband's death.
That doesn't mean I'm crazy.
310
00:33:26,754 --> 00:33:30,117
Nursing in wartime is difficult
and dangerous work.
311
00:33:30,293 --> 00:33:32,449
There'll be hideous suffering
and death.
312
00:33:32,626 --> 00:33:35,245
We can't send a nurse who
might break under the strain.
313
00:33:35,667 --> 00:33:38,912
My husband was murdered
at Harpers Ferry.
314
00:33:39,290 --> 00:33:41,576
Surely you can understand
the grief of a woman.
315
00:33:41,747 --> 00:33:44,412
Even if others consider it madness.
316
00:33:44,579 --> 00:33:48,522
There is also the matter of
your abolitionist views.
317
00:33:48,702 --> 00:33:52,565
- Some of your causes, we just...
- Such as marrying a Negro?
318
00:33:54,076 --> 00:33:57,903
That was not a cause, Mrs. Reilly.
That was love.
319
00:33:58,075 --> 00:34:00,774
Your marriage has nothing
to do with this.
320
00:34:00,946 --> 00:34:04,193
I'm sorry, but I must reject your
letter of application.
321
00:34:04,404 --> 00:34:08,978
Then I must inform you I have highly
placed friends in the government.
322
00:34:09,695 --> 00:34:13,638
I'm afraid this isn't a matter
of personal influence.
323
00:34:16,608 --> 00:34:19,640
You and Mrs. Dix have not
seen the last of me.
324
00:34:19,857 --> 00:34:22,474
I promise you that, Mrs. Reilly.
325
00:34:55,469 --> 00:35:00,253
We were married in such a hurry, I never
had time to get your ring engraved.
326
00:35:10,130 --> 00:35:11,750
"Forever."
327
00:35:12,252 --> 00:35:13,910
I think that calls for a toast.
328
00:35:14,085 --> 00:35:15,577
Yes.
329
00:35:15,750 --> 00:35:17,741
To the Hazards.
330
00:35:17,917 --> 00:35:19,907
And the Mains.
331
00:35:20,500 --> 00:35:24,245
May God keep our families safe and bring
us together when this is all through.
332
00:35:24,416 --> 00:35:25,823
Hear, hear.
333
00:35:37,743 --> 00:35:39,697
Isn't that your family at the far end?
334
00:35:39,907 --> 00:35:42,822
Yes, it is.
Could we please find our table?
335
00:35:43,866 --> 00:35:46,484
- Who's she with?
- Sam Greene.
336
00:35:48,532 --> 00:35:50,688
He's a congressman.
337
00:35:51,406 --> 00:35:54,850
Constance, that dress.
Isn't it your Worth gown?
338
00:35:56,735 --> 00:36:01,521
Yes. Virgilia liked it so much
that I gave it to her.
339
00:36:04,359 --> 00:36:05,981
Excuse me.
340
00:36:29,390 --> 00:36:32,920
That's all right, don't get up. I just
wanna say goodbye to my sister.
341
00:36:33,098 --> 00:36:35,133
I leave in the morning, Virgilia.
342
00:36:35,846 --> 00:36:37,750
I may not see you until the war's over.
343
00:36:41,134 --> 00:36:43,290
I just want to wish you all the best.
344
00:36:44,217 --> 00:36:45,496
Billy.
345
00:36:46,925 --> 00:36:48,915
Take care of yourself.
346
00:36:55,421 --> 00:36:58,169
One member of the Hazard family
seems to care about you.
347
00:36:58,670 --> 00:37:01,039
I prefer not to discuss my family.
348
00:37:02,502 --> 00:37:04,706
We have more important
things to discuss.
349
00:37:05,376 --> 00:37:07,578
I have missed seeing you.
350
00:37:08,291 --> 00:37:11,288
Why did you wait so long to tell me
you were in Washington?
351
00:37:11,457 --> 00:37:13,612
Because I wasn't ready
to see you yet.
352
00:37:18,288 --> 00:37:20,029
And now you are?
353
00:37:23,284 --> 00:37:25,819
I need your help again, Sam.
354
00:37:26,659 --> 00:37:27,986
I want to be a nurse.
355
00:37:28,158 --> 00:37:31,358
It seems to be the only way
a woman can fight this war.
356
00:37:31,533 --> 00:37:34,860
And I've run into difficulty
that I didn't plan on.
357
00:37:35,738 --> 00:37:38,901
Why? You're certainly charming
enough. I can attest to that.
358
00:37:39,696 --> 00:37:44,400
Dorothea Dix sets very high
standards for her nursing corps.
359
00:37:44,611 --> 00:37:47,229
And charm doesn't seem
to be a prerequisite.
360
00:37:48,192 --> 00:37:51,307
I know that a number of women
have been turned down, but...
361
00:37:51,481 --> 00:37:53,684
I haven't even gotten
past her aide, Sam.
362
00:37:53,855 --> 00:37:56,011
Why? Thank you.
363
00:37:56,188 --> 00:37:57,811
What's the problem?
364
00:38:00,021 --> 00:38:03,847
Have you forgotten
that I was in an asylum?
365
00:38:05,685 --> 00:38:07,805
Her aides found out about it.
366
00:38:08,684 --> 00:38:11,884
And you want me to talk to
Mrs. Dix on your behalf.
367
00:38:13,432 --> 00:38:14,973
Would you, please, Sam?
368
00:38:15,140 --> 00:38:16,466
Well...
369
00:38:16,681 --> 00:38:20,922
Sam, your recommendation would
override anything her staff might say.
370
00:38:21,095 --> 00:38:22,636
And you could explain to her...
371
00:38:22,845 --> 00:38:25,298
My reward will be...?
372
00:38:27,303 --> 00:38:31,247
My friendship and support, as always.
373
00:38:36,089 --> 00:38:38,494
You never fail to amaze me.
374
00:38:39,422 --> 00:38:43,664
You could ask for the moon
and not even offer a kiss in return.
375
00:38:43,839 --> 00:38:46,409
So does this mean you'll help me?
376
00:38:48,627 --> 00:38:50,168
Yes.
377
00:39:07,036 --> 00:39:09,157
Why, George.
378
00:39:09,328 --> 00:39:10,985
What a surprise.
379
00:39:12,826 --> 00:39:15,358
I doubt that, since you saw
me earlier this evening.
380
00:39:15,532 --> 00:39:16,809
Was that you?
381
00:39:16,989 --> 00:39:19,773
I did see a man in a uniform
that looked a lot like you.
382
00:39:19,946 --> 00:39:23,526
But then I thought, "No, George would
never take up arms against his...
383
00:39:23,696 --> 00:39:25,687
...beloved Southern friends."
384
00:39:26,529 --> 00:39:28,436
You haven't changed, have you?
385
00:39:28,612 --> 00:39:31,098
A constant in this time of change.
386
00:39:32,109 --> 00:39:34,976
Why are you here, George?
Did your wife send you?
387
00:39:36,025 --> 00:39:38,015
What are you doing in Washington?
388
00:39:38,191 --> 00:39:40,346
Do you really care?
389
00:39:41,856 --> 00:39:44,721
I want Sam Greene to help me
get into the nursing corps.
390
00:39:45,812 --> 00:39:47,388
Why didn't you see me first?
391
00:39:47,562 --> 00:39:50,808
- Oh, George, don't patronize me.
- I'm not.
392
00:39:53,351 --> 00:39:54,892
I've been concerned about you.
393
00:39:55,059 --> 00:39:57,762
Well, I'm fine.
394
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:04,087
At least let me loan you money so
you can find a decent place to live.
395
00:40:04,263 --> 00:40:08,422
You might have shown such brotherly
concern when Grady was alive.
396
00:40:10,471 --> 00:40:14,461
I'm sorry your husband was killed,
but nobody in our family's to blame.
397
00:40:14,635 --> 00:40:17,751
We're not a family, George,
we never have been.
398
00:40:22,133 --> 00:40:24,371
We were close when we were younger.
399
00:40:25,255 --> 00:40:27,045
I'm not sure how or why
that changed.
400
00:40:27,253 --> 00:40:29,741
When I began to think for myself...
401
00:40:30,294 --> 00:40:32,995
...which is something women
aren't supposed to do.
402
00:40:34,376 --> 00:40:36,035
It amazed me.
403
00:40:36,667 --> 00:40:41,124
Everyone would listen to Stanley's
most ridiculous ideas...
404
00:40:41,292 --> 00:40:43,529
...but no one cared to hear
what I might think.
405
00:40:43,873 --> 00:40:45,579
Do you know how that feels, George?
406
00:40:45,747 --> 00:40:47,653
To spend your life becoming educated...
407
00:40:47,830 --> 00:40:50,152
...only to be overlooked
because you're not male?
408
00:40:50,329 --> 00:40:52,817
I've always been interested
in what you had to say.
409
00:40:52,995 --> 00:40:55,364
The only opinion you wanted
to hear was your own.
410
00:40:55,536 --> 00:40:56,813
Oh, George!
411
00:40:56,992 --> 00:41:00,322
You, of all people, should've
seen what I was trying to do.
412
00:41:00,491 --> 00:41:03,821
You dismissed me like the rest.
"An abolitionist fanatic."
413
00:41:04,158 --> 00:41:06,444
You moderates still don't
hear the drums.
414
00:41:06,616 --> 00:41:10,557
You say all you want to do is preserve
the Union, that slavery isn't the issue.
415
00:41:10,736 --> 00:41:14,860
- And I say it's the only issue, George.
- I despise slavery as much as you do...
416
00:41:15,027 --> 00:41:17,941
...but I'm not here to argue right
or wrong or anything else!
417
00:41:18,110 --> 00:41:21,889
I am here because you are my sister!
I care about you!
418
00:41:22,068 --> 00:41:24,769
And to let you know your family's
there if you need them!
419
00:41:24,941 --> 00:41:26,977
Is that so difficult to understand?!
420
00:41:27,149 --> 00:41:30,726
Is it so hard for you to understand
that I just want to be alone?
421
00:41:35,145 --> 00:41:38,059
Virgilia, we can't change what is past.
422
00:41:42,059 --> 00:41:44,891
- But we can make a new beginning.
- No.
423
00:41:45,724 --> 00:41:47,798
It was too late for that
a long time ago.
424
00:41:47,973 --> 00:41:51,053
- Virgilia.
- Lf you'll excuse me, I'd like to turn in.
425
00:41:52,180 --> 00:41:53,754
Give my regards to Constance.
426
00:42:00,093 --> 00:42:01,799
If you ever need me...
427
00:42:02,884 --> 00:42:05,170
...you know how to find me.
428
00:42:45,993 --> 00:42:48,030
Don't hang too close to
me tonight, James.
429
00:42:48,201 --> 00:42:51,114
You'll meet more people if you
don't monopolize my time.
430
00:42:52,073 --> 00:42:56,196
You seem to have damn little of
that for me, in public or private.
431
00:42:56,363 --> 00:42:58,104
It's for your own good, James.
432
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,850
A loyal wife always helps
her husband's career.
433
00:43:01,029 --> 00:43:03,943
And tonight's the perfect
opportunity. Imagine!
434
00:43:04,111 --> 00:43:06,940
You and me at a party given
by Jefferson Davis.
435
00:43:07,108 --> 00:43:10,057
Davis is bound to recognize
my vision and courage...
436
00:43:10,231 --> 00:43:12,518
...and realize he needs me
in the war effort.
437
00:43:12,690 --> 00:43:16,896
Flattery, James.
All men like flattery.
438
00:43:17,064 --> 00:43:18,769
Use whatever charm you can muster.
439
00:43:18,939 --> 00:43:21,804
Stop treating me like a child.
My views are my strength.
440
00:43:21,977 --> 00:43:25,093
Being a clerk to the first assistant
in the treasury?
441
00:43:25,269 --> 00:43:26,926
It's not good enough for you.
442
00:43:27,101 --> 00:43:29,256
I want more for you. Much more.
443
00:43:29,433 --> 00:43:31,838
For me? Or for yourself?
444
00:43:33,390 --> 00:43:35,260
Isn't it all one and the same?
445
00:44:19,997 --> 00:44:24,286
Excuse me, but I must ask Mrs. Davis
where she got that simply...
446
00:44:24,454 --> 00:44:26,942
...interesting dress.
447
00:45:33,301 --> 00:45:35,506
Mr. Huntoon, in time of war...
448
00:45:35,676 --> 00:45:39,088
...a central government must enforce
stern measures necessary...
449
00:45:39,258 --> 00:45:40,835
...to our military operation...
450
00:45:41,009 --> 00:45:46,123
...such as the use of slaves as laborers,
regardless of its unpopularity.
451
00:45:46,296 --> 00:45:50,619
Then I submit, with all due respect
to yourself and to your office...
452
00:45:50,794 --> 00:45:52,499
...that it must not happen.
453
00:45:52,669 --> 00:45:54,991
Only the sovereign states
can decide policy.
454
00:45:55,376 --> 00:45:58,289
If they are forced to surrender
freedom to a central power...
455
00:45:58,457 --> 00:46:00,696
...why, we'd be like that circus
in Washington.
456
00:46:00,874 --> 00:46:04,653
May I remind you, sir, that I am charged
with making this new nation strong...
457
00:46:04,830 --> 00:46:07,613
...and successful. We must have
a central government...
458
00:46:07,788 --> 00:46:10,406
...stronger than its separate parts.
- Never!
459
00:46:10,579 --> 00:46:12,569
The states will not tolerate it.
460
00:46:13,492 --> 00:46:16,526
If that be so, Mr. Huntoon...
461
00:46:16,700 --> 00:46:19,982
...then the Confederacy
will not last out the year.
462
00:46:20,201 --> 00:46:24,442
You can have independent states,
or you can have a strong new nation.
463
00:46:24,616 --> 00:46:26,157
You cannot have both!
464
00:46:26,324 --> 00:46:28,275
A choice must be made.
465
00:46:28,445 --> 00:46:32,189
It is my choice not to be party ever
to autocratic ways! Furthermore...
466
00:46:32,361 --> 00:46:34,399
If you'll excuse me, Mr. Huntoon.
467
00:46:38,152 --> 00:46:39,479
Well done, James.
468
00:46:39,652 --> 00:46:44,271
He's afraid to argue political philosophy
because he knows he's wrong.
469
00:46:46,897 --> 00:46:48,474
James!
470
00:46:48,647 --> 00:46:50,055
Ashton...
471
00:46:50,230 --> 00:46:52,433
Don't "Ashton" me!
I heard everything.
472
00:46:52,605 --> 00:46:56,429
Is that flattery to you? Arguing with
the most important man in government?
473
00:46:56,602 --> 00:46:59,268
He behaves like a dictator.
I have a strong conviction...
474
00:46:59,435 --> 00:47:01,342
To hell with your conviction!
475
00:47:01,517 --> 00:47:03,887
You probably ended your
political career just now.
476
00:47:04,059 --> 00:47:06,841
That is, if you ever really had one!
477
00:47:17,052 --> 00:47:19,126
Glass of champagne, please.
478
00:47:21,385 --> 00:47:25,044
I simply can't abide punch
that's lost its potency.
479
00:47:38,628 --> 00:47:40,582
Good evening, Mr. Huntoon.
480
00:47:42,209 --> 00:47:43,998
Good evening, sir.
481
00:47:44,542 --> 00:47:47,243
I'm afraid you have the advantage.
Have we met before?
482
00:47:47,416 --> 00:47:49,655
Well, I'm not surprised
you don't remember me.
483
00:47:49,832 --> 00:47:51,869
The last time I saw you...
484
00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:55,948
...I was wearing the uniform of a major
in the Union army.
485
00:47:56,121 --> 00:47:59,153
- In New Orleans, after my speech.
- Precisely.
486
00:47:59,577 --> 00:48:03,072
After which we adjourned to Madam
Conti's house where we enjoyed...
487
00:48:03,244 --> 00:48:05,862
...the favors of certain ladies.
- Yes, of course...
488
00:48:06,034 --> 00:48:08,023
You told me you could not
serve the Union.
489
00:48:08,198 --> 00:48:11,113
But if Jeff Davis were elected,
you'd not serve him either.
490
00:48:11,281 --> 00:48:13,816
As you can see,
I'm still a man of my word.
491
00:48:14,530 --> 00:48:18,773
And you, sir, are still a man of vision.
492
00:48:18,947 --> 00:48:21,066
Thank you. I appreciate
your graciousness.
493
00:48:21,237 --> 00:48:24,647
Not at all. I overheard your discussion
with that arrogant jackass.
494
00:48:24,902 --> 00:48:28,311
You were completely justified
in what you said to him.
495
00:48:28,482 --> 00:48:30,886
I'm afraid my wife
doesn't share your opinion.
496
00:48:33,023 --> 00:48:35,511
Well, she certainly is beautiful.
497
00:48:35,689 --> 00:48:38,850
Which probably means
you'll have to forgive her.
498
00:48:39,437 --> 00:48:41,391
Come, then. Let me
introduce you to her.
499
00:48:41,561 --> 00:48:43,350
Well I'd love to, sir.
500
00:48:43,519 --> 00:48:47,262
But business before the pleasure
of meeting your wife.
501
00:48:47,433 --> 00:48:48,891
If you will.
502
00:48:50,890 --> 00:48:55,214
I confess I have a particular reason for
wishing to renew your acquaintance.
503
00:48:55,389 --> 00:48:59,429
To come to the point, Mr. Huntoon,
I'm organizing a small group of men.
504
00:48:59,597 --> 00:49:02,167
Men of vision and stature
like yourself...
505
00:49:02,347 --> 00:49:07,710
...to finance a confidential venture that I
guarantee will provide incredible profit.
506
00:49:07,882 --> 00:49:11,330
- You mean some kind of investment?
- A maritime investment, sir.
507
00:49:11,841 --> 00:49:13,878
You see, I think the Yankee blockade...
508
00:49:14,049 --> 00:49:18,124
...provides a golden opportunity for
men of the will and wherewithal.
509
00:49:18,298 --> 00:49:21,163
- You're suggesting running the blockade?
- Yes, I am.
510
00:49:21,337 --> 00:49:23,742
I already have an interest in one ship.
511
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:27,829
And I've just located a very fast
steamer called the Water Witch.
512
00:49:28,042 --> 00:49:32,415
Now she can be refitted in Liverpool
to suit our purposes, at a fair price.
513
00:49:32,583 --> 00:49:36,871
Your share of the profits will be equal
to your share of the investment.
514
00:49:37,498 --> 00:49:40,281
The Confederacy will need more
arms and ammunition.
515
00:49:40,455 --> 00:49:42,825
Sir, I'm referring to luxuries.
516
00:49:42,996 --> 00:49:44,902
Luxuries are where the money is.
517
00:49:45,744 --> 00:49:48,233
Of course, the danger
to the ship is tremendous.
518
00:49:48,411 --> 00:49:53,147
So, what we are looking for is the short
term, Mr. Huntoon, not the long term.
519
00:49:53,324 --> 00:49:55,113
But with the right cargo...
520
00:49:55,282 --> 00:49:58,813
...only two successful runs will bring
in a profit of 500 percent.
521
00:49:59,031 --> 00:50:02,396
After that, let the Yankees sink her,
if they can.
522
00:50:02,573 --> 00:50:06,349
And if not, our potential earnings
are astronomical.
523
00:50:06,569 --> 00:50:10,099
I must decline, sir. I want
no part of such a scheme.
524
00:50:10,277 --> 00:50:11,556
May I ask why, sir?
525
00:50:11,735 --> 00:50:14,436
I have several reasons,
but one is enough.
526
00:50:14,608 --> 00:50:16,149
It is unpatriotic.
527
00:50:16,316 --> 00:50:19,810
Since when are perfume, silk
and good sherry unpatriotic?
528
00:50:19,980 --> 00:50:22,931
- The answer is no, sir!
- No to what?
529
00:50:23,105 --> 00:50:28,472
We're disagreeing on a business venture,
although we do share the same politics.
530
00:50:28,644 --> 00:50:32,506
And, evidently,
the same love of beauty.
531
00:50:33,309 --> 00:50:35,264
My dear, may I present...
532
00:50:35,434 --> 00:50:37,885
Elkanah Bent, sir, at your service.
533
00:50:38,057 --> 00:50:40,047
Mr. Bent, my wife, Ashton.
534
00:50:56,010 --> 00:50:58,498
You went to the wrong person,
Mr. Bent.
535
00:50:58,675 --> 00:51:01,292
My husband would never invest
in something like that.
536
00:51:01,465 --> 00:51:03,786
Because of his patriotism?
537
00:51:04,505 --> 00:51:07,170
No. Because he's a coward.
538
00:51:07,919 --> 00:51:11,036
But I'm not, and I have my own money.
539
00:51:11,211 --> 00:51:14,493
How can that be, madam?
Your husband is a lawyer.
540
00:51:14,669 --> 00:51:18,530
And the law says your money became
his the moment you were married.
541
00:51:18,708 --> 00:51:22,569
I control my money, Mr. Bent,
because I control my husband.
542
00:51:22,748 --> 00:51:24,903
Well, I can believe that.
543
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,280
And I think he was very
wrong to refuse you.
544
00:51:28,496 --> 00:51:30,816
Does that mean that you would not?
545
00:51:35,244 --> 00:51:37,814
Perhaps we should discuss it later...
546
00:51:38,034 --> 00:51:39,859
...in private.
547
00:51:50,820 --> 00:51:54,351
Left! Left! Left, right, left!
548
00:51:54,528 --> 00:51:58,222
Left! Left! Left, right, left!
549
00:51:58,401 --> 00:52:02,345
Left! Left! Left, right, left!
550
00:52:02,525 --> 00:52:06,351
Left! Left! Left, right, left!
551
00:52:06,523 --> 00:52:08,678
Carter, keep your cadence!
552
00:52:08,897 --> 00:52:10,519
Captain Durham!
553
00:52:11,188 --> 00:52:12,928
Put them in line.
554
00:52:13,103 --> 00:52:15,009
By company into line!
555
00:52:15,644 --> 00:52:17,930
March!
556
00:52:25,724 --> 00:52:27,298
Excellent.
557
00:52:27,888 --> 00:52:30,422
That will be enough for today.
558
00:52:37,885 --> 00:52:41,497
You and your men are to be
congratulated, Captain Durham.
559
00:52:41,884 --> 00:52:45,128
Just shows how quickly our Southern
boys take to soldiering.
560
00:52:45,298 --> 00:52:47,336
Permission to speak, sir.
561
00:52:47,798 --> 00:52:49,752
What is it, soldier?
562
00:52:54,546 --> 00:52:57,114
Well, sir, I want to be released
from my enlistment.
563
00:52:57,918 --> 00:53:00,750
It's my wife, sir, she misses me.
And my young'uns.
564
00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:04,406
Sir, I gotta be honest with you,
I'm not cut out for this militia life.
565
00:53:04,583 --> 00:53:07,497
I can shoot rabbits and possum...
566
00:53:07,666 --> 00:53:12,237
...but I sure don't think I could pull the
trigger on no human, not even a Yank.
567
00:53:13,288 --> 00:53:15,408
What's your name, soldier?
568
00:53:15,579 --> 00:53:18,778
- Burnett, sir.
- Well, Private Burnett.
569
00:53:18,953 --> 00:53:21,524
What do you think would happen
to our Confederacy...
570
00:53:21,702 --> 00:53:26,024
...if every man decided he was not
"cut out for this militia life"?
571
00:53:27,907 --> 00:53:31,236
Ours is a glorious cause, young man.
572
00:53:31,406 --> 00:53:32,733
Freedom.
573
00:53:32,907 --> 00:53:34,233
Independence.
574
00:53:35,531 --> 00:53:37,734
The supremacy of the white man.
575
00:53:38,571 --> 00:53:42,609
Every one of us must be willing
to give his last breath to that end.
576
00:53:43,109 --> 00:53:45,016
Your request is denied, soldier.
577
00:53:45,192 --> 00:53:49,101
- But, sir...
- That's easy for you to say no, colonel.
578
00:53:50,107 --> 00:53:52,062
You ain't got no family no more.
579
00:53:54,688 --> 00:53:56,345
Colonel! Colonel!
580
00:53:56,521 --> 00:53:57,978
Colonel.
581
00:53:58,146 --> 00:54:00,894
Sergeant, dismiss the men!
582
00:54:01,061 --> 00:54:02,849
Right face!
583
00:54:04,142 --> 00:54:05,552
March!
584
00:54:28,217 --> 00:54:30,966
"For thy sweet love remember'd...
585
00:54:31,133 --> 00:54:33,336
...such wealth brings...
586
00:54:34,091 --> 00:54:38,627
...then I scorn to change my state
with kings."
587
00:54:43,795 --> 00:54:46,329
You love my son very much.
588
00:54:48,918 --> 00:54:51,451
He means everything to me.
589
00:54:53,415 --> 00:54:55,571
I never want to hurt him.
590
00:54:55,748 --> 00:54:59,326
Madeline, you bring him such happiness,
you could never hurt him.
591
00:55:02,830 --> 00:55:04,866
It's something else, isn't it?
592
00:55:06,701 --> 00:55:09,946
I just don't want to ever bring
shame to this family.
593
00:55:11,741 --> 00:55:13,067
You never could.
594
00:55:19,240 --> 00:55:21,903
There's something that you don't know.
595
00:55:24,527 --> 00:55:26,151
My mother...
596
00:55:26,653 --> 00:55:28,311
She had Negro blood in her...
597
00:55:28,486 --> 00:55:31,814
My dear, Orry already told me.
598
00:55:33,484 --> 00:55:35,851
Oh, Mrs. Main, then you know...
599
00:55:36,023 --> 00:55:38,097
...that if anyone ever found out...
600
00:55:38,273 --> 00:55:41,637
All that matters is that
my son loves you.
601
00:55:43,229 --> 00:55:44,686
So do I.
602
00:55:47,104 --> 00:55:50,929
Don't you think it's time you
stopped saying, "Mrs. Main"?
603
00:55:51,352 --> 00:55:53,885
Call me "Clarissa," if you wish.
604
00:55:54,725 --> 00:55:57,723
Or maybe just "Mother."
605
00:56:18,549 --> 00:56:22,292
Do exactly what we say, boy,
or you'll be in hell damn quick.
606
00:56:22,463 --> 00:56:24,584
Have this nigger saddle up a horse.
607
00:56:42,373 --> 00:56:47,490
Not a word, or I'll slit your throat
and the old lady's too.
608
00:56:47,661 --> 00:56:49,450
You're going home, Mrs. LaMotte.
609
00:56:49,619 --> 00:56:53,031
And this time, you're going
to be a dutiful wife.
610
00:57:14,195 --> 00:57:15,734
Miss Madeline...
611
00:57:17,192 --> 00:57:19,266
Get her on a horse!
612
00:57:27,314 --> 00:57:29,137
Take her home.
613
00:57:30,936 --> 00:57:32,346
Give me that.
614
00:57:43,267 --> 00:57:44,722
Fire! Fire!
615
00:57:44,890 --> 00:57:46,629
Fire in the cotton barn!
616
00:57:46,805 --> 00:57:49,588
Pump up the water from the well!
Get a bucket line moving!
617
00:57:49,762 --> 00:57:53,257
Get that ladder from the horse barn!
We gotta get water on that roof!
618
00:57:53,428 --> 00:57:55,134
- You gonna get...
- Now's not the time!
619
00:57:55,303 --> 00:57:57,542
- Cuffey, this fire needs both of us!
- Let's go!
620
00:57:57,720 --> 00:57:59,541
Fire!
621
00:57:59,716 --> 00:58:01,541
Fire!
622
00:58:03,298 --> 00:58:04,708
Get on this side!
623
00:58:05,340 --> 00:58:08,337
Come on, get a move on!
Get a move on!
624
00:58:10,172 --> 00:58:12,207
More water!
625
00:58:15,378 --> 00:58:18,292
Cuffey, you gotta move this wagon!
626
00:58:18,460 --> 00:58:20,663
More water! More water!
627
00:58:20,834 --> 00:58:22,575
Hurry! Hurry!
628
00:58:26,042 --> 00:58:28,824
Keep them moving! Keep them moving!
629
00:58:30,330 --> 00:58:32,119
Keep these buckets moving.
630
00:58:35,537 --> 00:58:37,574
I'm gonna get Miss Clarissa!
631
00:58:37,787 --> 00:58:41,564
What's she gonna do, spit on the fire
and put it out? Get back on that pump!
632
00:58:53,949 --> 00:58:55,770
- Come on!
- Quickly!
633
00:59:08,149 --> 00:59:09,723
Move it on over there!
634
00:59:09,980 --> 00:59:12,018
Gotta get more water!
635
00:59:12,897 --> 00:59:14,306
Where's Cuffey, Ezra?
636
00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:17,808
Miss Clarissa, he went back inside
the barn, down on that end.
637
00:59:18,270 --> 00:59:20,058
Keep the buckets moving!
638
00:59:24,350 --> 00:59:26,837
We gotta get more water in here!
639
00:59:28,849 --> 00:59:31,681
- How'd it get started?
- Justin threw a lantern on the roof!
640
00:59:31,848 --> 00:59:34,384
Then he run off and took
Miss Madeline with him!
641
00:59:37,265 --> 00:59:38,837
Look out!
642
01:00:19,122 --> 01:00:20,744
Miss Clarissa.
643
01:00:21,205 --> 01:00:22,992
Miss Clarissa.
644
01:00:34,241 --> 01:00:36,229
We better get her in the house.
645
01:00:55,649 --> 01:00:58,680
Cuffey, you better get out there
and help fight that fire.
646
01:00:58,981 --> 01:01:00,687
The cotton's gone, boy.
647
01:01:00,855 --> 01:01:04,019
I ain't wasting more sweat saving
things don't even belong to me.
648
01:01:04,188 --> 01:01:06,934
You better never let Miss Clarissa
hear that kind of talk.
649
01:01:07,102 --> 01:01:11,177
Let her. We're killing ourselves,
and them folk don't even care about us.
650
01:01:13,225 --> 01:01:14,884
Miss Clarissa?
651
01:01:15,100 --> 01:01:17,468
Don't try to move, ma'am.
652
01:01:18,807 --> 01:01:21,127
You took a terrible lick on the head.
653
01:01:28,054 --> 01:01:30,090
We sent for the doctor.
654
01:01:32,886 --> 01:01:36,379
Did you find Miss Madeline yet?
655
01:01:38,173 --> 01:01:39,796
We looking for her.
656
01:01:42,047 --> 01:01:43,919
You just rest now.
657
01:01:46,463 --> 01:01:49,127
We get word to Miss Brett.
658
01:01:50,044 --> 01:01:51,785
We going to take care of everything.
659
01:02:33,319 --> 01:02:35,274
Welcome home, my dear.
660
01:02:35,443 --> 01:02:37,349
This was never my home.
661
01:02:37,526 --> 01:02:41,600
I've had time to think, and now
I realize how much I want you.
662
01:02:41,857 --> 01:02:43,314
Justin...
663
01:02:43,482 --> 01:02:47,888
You're mine in the eyes of your God,
your church and the law.
664
01:02:48,063 --> 01:02:50,267
No piece of paper is going
to change that.
665
01:02:50,437 --> 01:02:53,518
Justin, please. It's too late.
666
01:02:54,895 --> 01:02:56,221
Please.
667
01:02:56,393 --> 01:02:58,052
Don't be afraid.
668
01:02:59,185 --> 01:03:01,588
I'll be patient for now.
669
01:03:01,766 --> 01:03:03,472
Though I will keep you under guard.
670
01:03:08,679 --> 01:03:12,423
You'll be my lady,
and I'll treat you as such.
671
01:03:12,596 --> 01:03:14,880
You'll see how much I've changed.
672
01:03:15,052 --> 01:03:16,378
Justin.
673
01:03:16,550 --> 01:03:19,998
You're guilty of abducting me against
my will. People will know I'm here.
674
01:03:20,175 --> 01:03:21,916
They'll find me.
675
01:03:22,716 --> 01:03:27,787
Every white man at Mont Royal,
including your precious Orry...
676
01:03:27,964 --> 01:03:31,292
...is away fighting for our glorious cause.
677
01:03:34,212 --> 01:03:36,877
There is no one, Madeline.
678
01:03:46,915 --> 01:03:48,289
Good night.
679
01:04:31,106 --> 01:04:34,103
Where were you, Mr. Bent?
I don't like to be kept waiting.
680
01:04:34,272 --> 01:04:37,019
I've risked my reputation
coming here without my...
681
01:04:37,187 --> 01:04:38,643
...husband's knowledge.
682
01:04:38,811 --> 01:04:41,558
I must say, you do look ravishing,
Mrs. Huntoon.
683
01:04:42,017 --> 01:04:45,678
If you intend on flattering me, sir,
you'll have to do much better than that.
684
01:04:45,850 --> 01:04:47,721
May I offer you something to drink?
685
01:04:47,891 --> 01:04:50,177
Champagne will do nicely, thank you.
686
01:04:59,552 --> 01:05:02,219
Well, our tastes are similar.
687
01:05:02,385 --> 01:05:04,920
Surely that must mean something.
688
01:05:05,759 --> 01:05:08,876
You presume too much, sir,
on such an early acquaintance.
689
01:05:09,051 --> 01:05:12,828
Perhaps I do presume.
I have been expecting you for days.
690
01:05:19,296 --> 01:05:22,541
Money like this doesn't grow on trees,
you know.
691
01:05:22,711 --> 01:05:24,202
Besides...
692
01:05:24,376 --> 01:05:26,531
...I haven't decided whether I trust you.
693
01:05:26,709 --> 01:05:28,533
Maybe I should tell you that...
694
01:05:28,709 --> 01:05:31,575
...when I renewed my acquaintance
with your husband...
695
01:05:32,124 --> 01:05:34,115
...I had a much deeper motive.
696
01:05:36,082 --> 01:05:38,863
- And that was...?
- You and I.
697
01:05:39,870 --> 01:05:43,282
You never laid eyes on me
until four days ago.
698
01:05:43,494 --> 01:05:46,656
But I've seen your image.
The one he carries in his wallet.
699
01:05:46,826 --> 01:05:49,029
My wedding picture?
700
01:05:49,575 --> 01:05:54,110
- The one where your brother is there...
- Orry? I don't wanna hear about Orry.
701
01:06:04,945 --> 01:06:07,975
- How do you know my brother?
- We were...
702
01:06:08,150 --> 01:06:09,559
...cadets together.
703
01:06:12,525 --> 01:06:14,313
At West Point.
704
01:06:15,648 --> 01:06:18,811
Why, he's talked about you
since I was a little girl.
705
01:06:19,605 --> 01:06:22,092
"Bent the bastard" is the
term I most remember.
706
01:06:22,270 --> 01:06:25,018
Your brother and his friend
George Hazard were...
707
01:06:25,186 --> 01:06:28,764
...my enemies. They conspired to have
me discharged from the academy.
708
01:06:28,935 --> 01:06:31,885
I wouldn't be surprised at anything
those two might do.
709
01:06:32,059 --> 01:06:34,344
Well, then, you know
George Hazard too.
710
01:06:36,430 --> 01:06:39,097
His younger brother married my sister.
711
01:06:39,847 --> 01:06:42,381
I hate all the Hazards,
including her.
712
01:06:42,555 --> 01:06:46,299
Evidently, your hatred extends
all the way to your own brother.
713
01:06:46,470 --> 01:06:50,544
Orry actually ordered me off the
plantation, all because I just tried to...
714
01:06:50,717 --> 01:06:54,580
...interfere with my sister's marriage
to that damn Yankee.
715
01:06:55,841 --> 01:06:57,250
You saw my wedding picture?
716
01:06:57,423 --> 01:06:58,750
Once.
717
01:06:58,923 --> 01:07:01,246
After one of your husband's speeches.
718
01:07:01,423 --> 01:07:04,089
My sister, Brett, was that
drab little thing to my right.
719
01:07:04,255 --> 01:07:07,499
I don't recall it all that well,
except for you, of course.
720
01:07:07,669 --> 01:07:11,614
And there was some other
woman with dark hair.
721
01:07:12,668 --> 01:07:14,538
- You have another sister?
- No.
722
01:07:14,707 --> 01:07:17,243
That was Madeline LaMotte,
the whore.
723
01:07:17,416 --> 01:07:19,949
- She's living with my brother now.
- Illicitly.
724
01:07:20,455 --> 01:07:24,862
And openly. He claims he's giving her
sanctuary from her crazy husband.
725
01:07:25,079 --> 01:07:26,987
But from what I hear...
726
01:07:27,162 --> 01:07:30,492
...they plan on being married
as soon as she can get a divorce.
727
01:07:30,662 --> 01:07:32,036
Better and better.
728
01:07:32,954 --> 01:07:36,113
- Don't tell me you know her.
- I know something about her...
729
01:07:36,282 --> 01:07:38,948
...that I'll keep to myself
for a while yet.
730
01:07:39,115 --> 01:07:42,729
Now I would appreciate it
if you gave me that bank draft.
731
01:07:53,735 --> 01:07:55,392
How masterful.
732
01:07:55,568 --> 01:07:58,352
- A man who takes what he wants.
- And he wants it all.
733
01:07:58,567 --> 01:08:01,398
My, my, my, Mr. Bent.
734
01:08:01,566 --> 01:08:04,764
We are greedy for all the
good things in life.
735
01:08:04,980 --> 01:08:07,681
After all, money is but one.
736
01:08:07,855 --> 01:08:10,425
It's the one that buys all the rest.
737
01:08:19,850 --> 01:08:22,088
I'm not that easily bought, sir.
738
01:08:22,265 --> 01:08:26,506
You must show me profits before
you deserve what you've just stolen.
739
01:08:27,013 --> 01:08:29,134
You'll have your profits...
740
01:08:30,138 --> 01:08:32,091
...and you'll have more.
741
01:08:37,759 --> 01:08:39,465
Much more.
742
01:08:44,465 --> 01:08:46,951
I must run.
James expects me home...
743
01:08:47,130 --> 01:08:49,535
...when he returns from the treasury.
744
01:08:58,835 --> 01:09:00,622
Send your card around, sir...
745
01:09:00,791 --> 01:09:03,327
...when your ship comes in.
746
01:10:24,010 --> 01:10:27,337
You won't be able to
leave today, Semiramis.
747
01:10:28,424 --> 01:10:30,877
The blockade stopped
the coastal steamers...
748
01:10:31,047 --> 01:10:34,958
...and the rail lines south are closed
because fighting's expected.
749
01:10:35,130 --> 01:10:37,997
Are you still going to Pennsylvania?
750
01:10:38,171 --> 01:10:42,031
No, I'll stay here with you
until after the battle.
751
01:10:42,626 --> 01:10:45,707
One way or the other,
we'll find a way to get you home.
752
01:10:49,126 --> 01:10:52,075
- Excuse me, ma'am, are you Mrs. Hazard?
- I am.
753
01:10:52,249 --> 01:10:55,613
This message passed through Union lines
and I was hired to deliver it.
754
01:10:56,121 --> 01:10:58,740
- Thank you, sir.
- Good day, ma'am.
755
01:11:18,822 --> 01:11:20,977
Mother's very sick...
756
01:11:22,071 --> 01:11:24,189
...and Madeline's gone.
757
01:11:26,692 --> 01:11:28,978
We have to find a way
to get back to Mont Royal.
758
01:11:29,150 --> 01:11:32,265
- But you just said the fighting?
- We can pack the buggy.
759
01:11:32,441 --> 01:11:35,225
Once we get past Union lines,
we'll be safe in Virginia.
760
01:11:35,398 --> 01:11:38,726
Miss Brett, your mama don't want you
in no danger, or Mr. Billy...
761
01:11:38,896 --> 01:11:41,182
He'll understand.
762
01:11:42,437 --> 01:11:44,723
He'd do the same thing.
763
01:11:46,186 --> 01:11:50,225
We have to try.
There's nobody else. Mama needs us.
764
01:12:21,380 --> 01:12:23,121
Morning.
765
01:12:23,671 --> 01:12:25,413
You all right?
766
01:12:25,587 --> 01:12:28,122
Beat just caught on me, lieutenant.
767
01:12:28,711 --> 01:12:31,576
- You in the sharpshooters?
- Yeah, I'm just reporting in.
768
01:12:31,750 --> 01:12:34,155
- Name's Billy Hazard.
- Tom Larson.
769
01:12:34,333 --> 01:12:37,992
I'm on the way to your camp too.
I wanna be a drummer.
770
01:12:38,164 --> 01:12:39,786
What about your folks, Tom?
771
01:12:39,955 --> 01:12:41,780
Ain't got any.
772
01:12:41,955 --> 01:12:43,495
Aren't you a little young?
773
01:12:43,663 --> 01:12:46,412
Don't matter how old you are
if you're the best.
774
01:12:46,579 --> 01:12:50,272
I know every last command there is.
No matter how many guns go off...
775
01:12:50,451 --> 01:12:53,732
...you'll hear me, I can promise that.
776
01:12:55,866 --> 01:12:59,646
- Come on. I'll give you a ride.
- Much obliged, lieutenant.
777
01:13:15,942 --> 01:13:19,768
You ready? One, two, three.
778
01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:23,452
- Stack those rifles!
- Look smart!
779
01:14:25,790 --> 01:14:27,366
We're ready, sir!
780
01:14:36,244 --> 01:14:38,483
This is a regiment.
781
01:14:38,660 --> 01:14:40,651
Think those men are impressive, do you?
782
01:14:40,826 --> 01:14:43,610
- Best in the army, right?
- Wrong, lieutenant.
783
01:14:44,118 --> 01:14:48,024
Not the best by any measure and
neither are you. Your boots are dusty.
784
01:14:48,196 --> 01:14:50,352
- I've been on the trail.
- You wipe them off...
785
01:14:50,529 --> 01:14:52,935
...before you enter the camp.
786
01:14:53,570 --> 01:14:56,023
- Look, I've had...
- Your gear isn't packed properly.
787
01:14:56,196 --> 01:14:59,395
- I don't like the way...
- lf you're Lieutenant Hazard, you're late.
788
01:14:59,568 --> 01:15:04,935
My orders didn't arrive on time.
Why am I defending myself to a sergeant?
789
01:15:06,274 --> 01:15:10,479
I am Colonel Hiram Berdan, sir,
your commanding officer.
790
01:15:10,647 --> 01:15:12,767
Colonel, sir! I'm sorry, sir.
791
01:15:12,938 --> 01:15:16,300
I can't hold you to account
for not recognizing me...
792
01:15:16,477 --> 01:15:21,098
...but as for the already noted
derelictions, I can and do.
793
01:15:21,601 --> 01:15:25,180
This regiment will become the best...
794
01:15:25,351 --> 01:15:27,009
...and damn quick.
795
01:15:27,184 --> 01:15:28,803
Yes, sir.
796
01:15:31,055 --> 01:15:33,128
Wait, colonel.
797
01:15:33,304 --> 01:15:35,626
I wanna be a drummer.
798
01:15:37,095 --> 01:15:39,050
Sorry, boy.
799
01:15:39,428 --> 01:15:41,798
You need experience
and you're too young.
800
01:15:41,969 --> 01:15:45,463
I came all the way from Baltimore.
At least give me a chance.
801
01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:47,540
Baltimore?
802
01:15:49,091 --> 01:15:52,420
Well, make it quick.
803
01:15:53,423 --> 01:15:55,211
Good luck.
804
01:15:58,544 --> 01:16:00,250
Assembly!
805
01:16:07,084 --> 01:16:08,991
Forward march.
806
01:16:17,371 --> 01:16:19,029
Retreat.
807
01:16:20,828 --> 01:16:23,661
- What are you laughing at?
- You.
808
01:16:23,829 --> 01:16:25,946
That was some introduction.
809
01:16:26,117 --> 01:16:29,646
At least you made
an impression on old ramrod.
810
01:16:30,281 --> 01:16:31,988
Rally.
811
01:16:34,573 --> 01:16:37,239
I guess it was pretty funny.
812
01:16:38,155 --> 01:16:40,272
Rudy Bodford.
This is Jamie Powell.
813
01:16:40,444 --> 01:16:42,813
- Nice to meet you.
- Stephen Kent.
814
01:16:42,985 --> 01:16:44,477
Mess call.
815
01:16:44,651 --> 01:16:46,854
William Hazard.
Friends call me Billy.
816
01:16:47,025 --> 01:16:49,892
Well, I can see you're gonna keep us
constantly entertained.
817
01:16:50,191 --> 01:16:53,556
First you get your foot
stuck in your mouth and then...
818
01:16:53,899 --> 01:16:57,178
...you try to palm off some kid
as a drummer boy.
819
01:16:58,230 --> 01:17:00,351
I think he can do the job.
820
01:17:01,437 --> 01:17:04,008
He'll run at the sound
of the first cannon.
821
01:17:04,186 --> 01:17:06,425
Billy! Billy!
822
01:17:07,560 --> 01:17:09,928
Colonel put me on the muster roll.
I made it!
823
01:17:10,099 --> 01:17:12,765
- Congratulations.
- Congratulations.
824
01:17:24,636 --> 01:17:26,342
Corporal!
825
01:17:28,967 --> 01:17:32,414
I'm from Wade Hampton's legion.
Real fighting about to get started.
826
01:17:32,592 --> 01:17:35,258
- Manassas Junction.
- How many Yankees are we up against?
827
01:17:35,425 --> 01:17:38,704
McDowell's 35,000 strong
to Beauregard's 30.
828
01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:41,582
Should be pretty equal.
Gotta get to Richmond.
829
01:17:41,755 --> 01:17:45,582
The boys at the War Department
always want a report. Good luck.
830
01:17:45,753 --> 01:17:48,370
Too late for Ashton.
Better make tracks for Manassas.
831
01:17:48,543 --> 01:17:50,332
Meet him there.
832
01:17:58,748 --> 01:18:01,781
General Beauregard has
been bringing his rebel troops...
833
01:18:01,956 --> 01:18:05,651
...to the railroad junction
here at Manassas...
834
01:18:05,830 --> 01:18:07,734
...near Bull Run.
835
01:18:08,327 --> 01:18:12,484
They're obviously massing for a major
movement north against the capital.
836
01:18:12,658 --> 01:18:16,024
I don't think so, sir.
They'll wait to see what we intend.
837
01:18:16,199 --> 01:18:19,399
While we wait
to see what they intend.
838
01:18:19,574 --> 01:18:23,779
Isn't it possible, Mr. President, that
the blockade you ordered of their ports...
839
01:18:23,946 --> 01:18:27,855
...will bring them to their senses
before any more blood need be spilled?
840
01:18:28,028 --> 01:18:30,730
The Southern hotheads hoot
at my blockade...
841
01:18:30,902 --> 01:18:33,935
...as loudly as they question
my ancestry.
842
01:18:34,276 --> 01:18:36,940
We cannot expect a blockade
to bring them down.
843
01:18:37,107 --> 01:18:40,519
There are certain domestic political
considerations as well.
844
01:18:40,690 --> 01:18:44,304
Our people believe it's high time
to whip the rebels and end all this.
845
01:18:44,481 --> 01:18:49,681
That traitor Davis has proclaimed their
cause the Second American Revolution.
846
01:18:49,853 --> 01:18:53,892
What he's talking about, Mr. Cameron,
is the right to revolt.
847
01:18:54,101 --> 01:18:57,632
We'll crush them with our numbers
and be in Richmond by August.
848
01:18:58,100 --> 01:19:01,014
Numbers alone won't be enough.
849
01:19:01,183 --> 01:19:03,090
This will be a people's war.
850
01:19:03,266 --> 01:19:05,384
Brother against brother.
851
01:19:05,554 --> 01:19:07,876
Our greatest test.
852
01:19:08,761 --> 01:19:13,750
Those boys moving south deserve the
best arms and cannon we can give them.
853
01:19:13,927 --> 01:19:16,924
I've just tuned in my munitions report.
854
01:19:17,093 --> 01:19:20,456
Our people will work day and night
to give them what they need.
855
01:19:20,631 --> 01:19:24,707
Not that so-called
Spencer repeating rifle.
856
01:19:24,881 --> 01:19:26,669
Think of the bullets it'd waste.
857
01:19:26,838 --> 01:19:29,705
Stick to the tried and true in battle.
You can't go wrong.
858
01:19:29,879 --> 01:19:31,537
Noted.
859
01:19:32,212 --> 01:19:36,666
Gentlemen, General McDowell
had a full meal last night...
860
01:19:36,835 --> 01:19:40,662
...then polished off a whole
watermelon for dessert.
861
01:19:40,834 --> 01:19:44,577
If he can polish off
Beauregard with as much relish...
862
01:19:44,748 --> 01:19:47,153
...we have nothing to fear.
863
01:21:33,623 --> 01:21:35,577
You'd think this was
some sort of picnic.
864
01:21:35,746 --> 01:21:38,317
General, we've been rushed into
battle by the public.
865
01:21:38,496 --> 01:21:41,612
The South holds strong
defensive positions on their own soil.
866
01:21:41,787 --> 01:21:45,776
The rebels have already retreated
to Henry House Hill.
867
01:21:45,949 --> 01:21:49,279
My old classmate Tom Jackson's
holding that hill.
868
01:21:49,448 --> 01:21:52,612
I would expect there to be formidable
Confederate opposition.
869
01:21:52,782 --> 01:21:54,439
Nonsense, colonel.
870
01:21:54,615 --> 01:21:57,692
Undisciplined rabble cannot stand
against a great nation's army.
871
01:21:57,861 --> 01:22:00,728
That's what King George
said in 1776.
872
01:22:00,902 --> 01:22:03,188
Gentlemen, please cease fire.
873
01:22:03,860 --> 01:22:06,526
Now you can see why I insisted
we come along too.
874
01:22:06,817 --> 01:22:08,937
Somebody has to keep the peace.
875
01:22:09,108 --> 01:22:11,772
That's an odd expression
to use on a battlefield.
876
01:22:14,022 --> 01:22:16,427
General, Mrs. Harper,
isn't it exciting?
877
01:22:16,606 --> 01:22:18,477
Molly, I didn't think you were coming.
878
01:22:18,647 --> 01:22:21,430
I made Mama change her mind.
She's setting up our picnic.
879
01:22:21,604 --> 01:22:25,014
I wanted to get a good look.
I've never seen a battle before.
880
01:22:55,548 --> 01:22:56,957
Don't worry, I'll keep up.
881
01:22:57,131 --> 01:23:00,128
You're the last one
I'm worried about, Tom.
882
01:23:00,630 --> 01:23:03,544
General wants us to move closer
to that Confederate battery.
883
01:23:03,921 --> 01:23:07,082
Don't interrupt an artist at work.
884
01:23:07,252 --> 01:23:09,620
I just dropped a Reb
artillery captain!
885
01:23:17,123 --> 01:23:20,121
Why is Colonel Hazard so concerned?
886
01:23:22,913 --> 01:23:25,992
His younger brother
is in the sharpshooters.
887
01:23:35,492 --> 01:23:38,191
Company, prepare to advance!
888
01:23:45,778 --> 01:23:49,310
Advance while firing!
889
01:24:25,928 --> 01:24:29,756
I can't see a thing with all the smoke
and the trees and the hills.
890
01:24:40,340 --> 01:24:42,211
Company, halt!
891
01:24:54,502 --> 01:24:57,913
- There's their destination, sir.
- Henry House.
892
01:25:06,704 --> 01:25:08,245
Wade Hampton's Legion?
893
01:25:08,412 --> 01:25:10,901
To the right, sir, the Hodam's branch.
894
01:25:11,078 --> 01:25:13,531
Let's show them how to whistle Dixie.
895
01:25:29,239 --> 01:25:33,099
Draw sabers!
896
01:25:33,278 --> 01:25:35,067
I'll send you back
with a message.
897
01:25:35,236 --> 01:25:39,892
Ain't leaving you or my post.
No matter what happens. We're a team.
898
01:25:40,068 --> 01:25:41,525
Yes, sir.
899
01:26:05,431 --> 01:26:08,677
- That's not our legion.
- Doesn't matter. It's our war now.
900
01:26:15,346 --> 01:26:17,169
Company, advance!
901
01:26:37,296 --> 01:26:41,073
Beat a rally, Tom.
Loud as you can! Come on!
902
01:26:48,457 --> 01:26:50,198
Ready!
903
01:26:51,290 --> 01:26:53,409
Aim!
904
01:26:53,580 --> 01:26:55,701
Fire!
905
01:28:25,543 --> 01:28:29,286
We need doctors!
Are there any doctors here?
906
01:28:30,042 --> 01:28:32,660
We need you.
Take horses and follow me.
907
01:28:33,083 --> 01:28:35,073
Private, what is happening?
908
01:28:36,458 --> 01:28:38,862
With respect, sir,
all hell is breaking loose.
909
01:28:39,039 --> 01:28:41,193
The wounded are coming in fast.
910
01:28:41,370 --> 01:28:43,076
We're trying to run for home.
911
01:28:43,578 --> 01:28:45,697
Run from the damn rebels?
912
01:28:45,868 --> 01:28:47,776
We've no choice sir.
They're whipping us.
913
01:28:48,327 --> 01:28:51,572
- How bad is it?
- It's over. We can't hold them.
914
01:28:52,117 --> 01:28:55,860
I suggest you get the women and
children out before they block the road.
915
01:28:57,489 --> 01:29:01,268
You salute a superior officer
before taking your leave. Private!
916
01:29:01,447 --> 01:29:04,858
We have to go now before we jam up
the road. Corporal, quickly!
917
01:29:09,151 --> 01:29:10,430
Let's go!
918
01:30:36,952 --> 01:30:39,023
Fall back!
919
01:31:47,089 --> 01:31:50,536
Corporal! Come back here!
Corporal!
920
01:31:50,713 --> 01:31:52,668
Grab the reins.
921
01:32:00,378 --> 01:32:02,615
- What are you doing?
- Move over!
922
01:32:04,500 --> 01:32:06,490
Oh, my God!
923
01:33:00,518 --> 01:33:04,097
My God, the whole world's
gone insane, George.
924
01:33:05,934 --> 01:33:07,841
Completely insane.
