    In its Glorification/romantization of the Confedrate cause a movie like this would never be made today and that's not such a bad thing! The lead character Kelly is a wheeler dealer more intereseted in his self interests than a cause not that he loves his captors or believes in theirs but in the end he is complicite in aiding them. this flim is a messy moral quandry.
