The heart-stopping story of the first black regiment to
fight for the North in the Civil War, "GLORY" stars
Matthew Broderick, Denzel Washington, Cary Elwes
and Morgan Freeman. Broderick and Elwes are the
idealistic young Bostonians who lead the regiment;
Freeman is the inspirational sergeant who unites the
troops; and Denzel Washington, in an Oscar-winning
performance, is the runaway slave who embodies the
indomitable spirit of the 54th Regiment of Massachusetts.
Despised by the South, distrusted by the North, the 54th
overcame seemingly insurmountable odds in their fight to
join the war for freedom. Underpaid and ill-equipped,
facing certain death at the hands of the Confederacy, the
54th rose to every challenge; from racism within the
ranks to the harrowing final battle, their courage, skill and
sacrifice paved the way for the Union's ultimate victory.
Based on the true story of America's forgotten heroes,
"GLORY" is one of the greatest war movies ever made.
