A prior discussion about this, iirc, noted that Texas was chosen to make it less overtly political, but I haven't seen the movie.

The movie is fantastic btw. It's a love story to war journalism and an actual fantastic depiction of what civil war here would be like.

One of the few movies I've watched repeatedly.

You’re one of the few people I’ve heard have as high opinion of that movie as I do. I love it, but basically everyone else I know hated it.

Many people went in hoping for a modern day GETTYSBURG or GLORY, instead they got more of an action/drama about war journalism.

I loved it, but I can see why many people didn't.
