Plot

Captain Robert Gould Shaw (Matthew Broderick) leads a company of soldiers from a Massachusetts Infantry Regiment in an attack on Confederate troops at the Battle of Antietam, on September 17, 1862. The attack however, proves to be damaging for the Union as it suffers heavy losses. Shaw is wounded, and later loses consciousness. He is awakened by a black Union gravedigger named John Rawlins (Morgan Freeman) and sent to a field hospital. While receiving medical attention, Shaw is told that President Lincoln is on the verge of passing the Emancipation Proclamation; freeing slaves in rebel held territory. While on leave in Boston, Shaw is offered a promotion to the rank of Colonel, and command of the first all-black regiment; the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry. He accepts the responsibility, and asks his childhood friend, Cabot Forbes (Cary Elwes), to be his second-in-command. Their first volunteer soldier is another one of Shaw's friends, an educated black man named Thomas Searles (Andre Braugher).

Many more black men join the regiment; including an escaped slave named Trip (Denzel Washington), a shy free black man named Jupiter Sharts (Jihmi Kennedy), as well as the gravedigger Rawlins. At the military camp, the company are forced to endure the unyielding strict discipline of Sergeant Major Mulcahy (John Finn). After spending time doing mostly menial work, Shaw realizes his unit is to be used only for manual labor due to their being black. Shaw confronts his commanding officers Charles Garrison Harker (Bob Gunton) and James M. Montgomery (Cliff De Young), whom he finds out are involved in war profiteering and corruption; and threatens to report them to the War Department if the 54th infantry is not deployed for combat. Shaw is granted his request, as the regiment later participates in a skirmish in South Carolina where they successfully repulse a Confederate attack. Soon after, Shaw volunteers the 54th infantry to lead an assault on Fort Wagner. After nightfall, he leads the men in a charge upon the fort. Shaw attempts to rally the men forward, but is shot and killed. Numerous other black soldiers in the regiment charge up the parapet and die in the fighting too.

The film's epilogue displays a series of graphics stating that Fort Wagner was never taken. It also notes how news of the regiment's courage spurred the creation of voluminous black volunteers, and by the end of the war, there were more than 180,000 African American men in uniform; a fact which President Lincoln considered instrumental in securing a victory for the Union.

Cast

Production

Development

Colonel Robert Gould Shaw

The premise of Glory is based on the true story of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry led by Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, the bold military leader of the U.S. Army's first African American soldier regiment. The inspiration for the film came from screenwriter Kevin Jarre; after him viewing a war monument depicting a memorial to Shaw and the 54th regiment consisting of Black soldiers.[3] Jarre's screenplay was based on Colonel Shaw's letters and on two books, Lincoln Kirstein's Lay This Laurel and Peter Burchard's One Gallant Rush.[4]

Colonel Shaw came from a wealthy and socially prominent Boston abolitionist family. Earlier before the wartime events, his parents had even joined an American Anti-Slavery Society.[5] As depicted in the film, the men of the 54th infantry trained near Boston, under the constant scrutiny of white soldiers, many of whom believed black soldiers lacked the stomach for combat. Yet the negative perceptions seemed only to inspire a sense of unity and pride within the regiment.[5] The assault on Fort Wagner proved to be a turning point for black soldiers, serving to dismiss any lingering skepticism among whites about the combat readiness of African Americans, opening a new chapter in racial equality.[5]

Filming

Principal filming took place primarily in Massachusetts and Georgia.[6] Director Zwick did not want to turn the filming of Glory into a Black story with a more commercially convenient white hero. Actor Freeman noted, "We didn't want this film to fall under that shadow". "This is a picture about the 54th Regiment, not Colonel Shaw, but at the same time the two are inseparable."[7] In 1995, when Zwick was promoting his film Courage Under Fire, he felt unhappy about having to go to the Department of Defense to get help with his Gulf War picture. The generals told him to change a few scenes to their liking, and that infuriated him. Zwick was convinced that government interference arose when bureaucrats with no writing experience tried to shape a narrative that they were incapable of judging. He used his experience on Glory to creatively prove his point.[7] The film includes a dramatized depiction of the Fort Wagner which occurred on July 18, 1863. In a Confederate victory, the casualty toll for both sides exceeded 1,500 people during the battle.

Music and soundtrack

The original motion picture soundtrack for Glory, was released by the Virgin Records label on June 29, 1992. The score for the film was orchestrated by James Horner in association with the Boys Choir of Harlem.[8] Jim Henrikson edited the film's music; while Shawn Murphy mixed the score.[9]

Novel

A paperback novel published by St. Martin's Press entitled, One Gallant Rush: Robert Gould Shaw and His Brave Black Regiment/Movie Tie in to the Movie "Glory", was released in January 1990. The book dramatizes the events of the American Civil War, as depicted in the film. It expands on the ideas of how the 54th Massachusetts regiment integrated themselves into becoming battle-ready soldiers.[10] The black men volunteering for Army service in times of discrimination and hatred is expanded upon in thorough detail in the novel. The book summarizes the history, and chronicles the historical events, and the ensuing aftermath of the first Union black regiment influencing the outcome of the war.[10]

Reception

Critical response

Among mainstream critics in the U.S., the film received mostly positive reviews. Rotten Tomatoes reported that 93% of 40 sampled critics gave the film a positive review, with an average score of 7.9 out of 10.[11]


"Watching "Glory," I had one reccuring problem. I didn't understand why it had to be told so often from the point of view of the 54th's white commanding officer. Why did we see the black troops through his eyes - instead of seeing him through theirs? To put it another way, why does the top billing in this movie go to a white actor?"
—Roger Ebert, writing in the Chicago Sun-Times[3]

Vincent Canby, writing in The New York Times, said actor Broderick "gives his most mature and controlled performance to date."[4] He equally complimented Washington as "an actor clearly on his way to a major screen career".[4] Impressed, he exlaimed, "The movie unfolds in a succession of often brilliantly realized vignettes tracing the 54th's organization, training and first experiences below the Mason-Dixon line. The characters' idiosyncracies emerge."[4] Roger Ebert in the Chicago Sun-Times called it "a strong and valuable film no matter whose eyes it is seen through."[3] He believed the production design credited to Norman Garwood and Freddie Francis paid "enormous attention to period detail". Ebert just had one qualm about the film wondering why a "black experience" had to be seen "largely through white eyes."[3] Similarly, the Variety staff wrote that the film was "A stirring and long overdue tribute to the black soldiers who fought for the Union cause in the Civil War" and that the film "has the sweep and magnificence of a Tolstoy battle tale or a John Ford saga of American history." On Broderick's performance, they believed his "boyishness becomes a key element of the drama, as the film shows him confiding his inadequacies".[12] Desson Howe of The Washington Post, stated that with Glory, "it's hard not to get carried along".[13] He praised the individual cinematic elements saying the motion picture was "a thoroughly pleasant experience, a lightweight, liberal-heart-swollen high."[13] He did however point out some flaws by mentioning Broderick as "an amiable non-presence, creating unintentionally the notion that the 54th earned their stripes despite wimpy leadership."[13] Jonathan Rosenbaum of the Chicago Reader, rated Glory as "pretty watchable" and calling it an "always interesting period film, well photographed by English cinematographer Freddie Francis."[14] The film however, was not without its detractors. Peter Travers of the Rolling Stone, was not impressed at all with the overall acting, calling Broderick "catastrophically miscast as Shaw".[15] Alternatively, Richard Schickel of TIME described his enthusiasm for the picture by saying, "the movie's often awesome imagery and a bravely soaring choral score by James Horner that transfigure the reality, granting it the status of necessary myth."[16]

Writing for the Entertainment Weekly, Mark Bernardin said the film's strength "belongs to the powerhouse supporting cast – Morgan Freeman, Andre Braugher (in his first movie role), and Denzel Washington". He added, "the magic of Glory comes from the film itself. It speaks of heroism writ large, from people whom history had made small."[17] James Berardinelli writing for ReelViews, called the film "without question, one of the best movies ever made about the American Civil War" and noted that it "has important things to say, yet it does so without becoming pedantic"[18] Berardinelli also commented that "For a motion picture made on a relatively modest budget, Glory looks great. From a technical standpoint, the movie is a masterpiece, and the verisimilitude of the battle scenes is not in question."[18] Marjorie Baumgarten of The Austin Chronicle, applauded the film as a "fabulous historical re-creation depicts the experiences of America's first unit of black soldiers in the Civil War and the young Northerner who leads them."[19] Rating the film with 4 Stars, critic Leonard Maltin wrote that the film was "Grand, moving, breathtakingly filmed (by veteran cinematographer Freddie Francis) and faultlessly performed". He ardently exclaimed that it was "One of the finest historical dramas ever made."[20]

"Glory is constructed as an inspirational tale, but the inspiration is not forced or false. It is rooted in the characters and the manner in which they overcome obstacles, including, most prominently, their own personal demons."
—James Berardinelli, writing for ReelViews[18]

Chris Hicks of the Deseret News, said the film was "Big in scope, powerful in its storytelling drama, yet intimate in its character and relationship development." Referring to Broderick, he found the acting "does very well as the young officer, and among his troops are two of our finest actors — Morgan Freeman (also currently starring in Driving Miss Daisy) and Denzel Washington (currently in Heart Condition)."[21] In TimeOut, author CM wrote that in terms of authenticity, "the battle sequences are truly impressive." He exclaimed, "the stark clarity of Freddie Francis' cinematography combined with Zwick's intimate style evokes immediacy and fear."[22] On another positive front, the staff of TV Guide commented on the production values of the film, saying they were "Richly plotted, alternately inspiring and horrifying, Glory is an enlightening and entertaining tribute to heroes too long forgotten." While on the acting merits, they noted "Glory also contains especially compelling performances by Broderick, Washington, and Freeman."[23] Film critic Gene Siskel of the Chicago Tribune gave the film a thumbs up review saying, "like Driving Miss Daisy, this is another admirable film that turns out to be surprisingly entertaining." He thought the film took on "some true social significance" and felt the actors portrayed the characters as "more than simply black men." He explained, "They're so different, that they become not merely standard Hollywood blacks, but true individuals."[24]
