The Grainy Landscape, Worn-Out Household, and Remembering the Past in 28 Years Later
How do zombie films shine new light in the post-Covid and post-Brexit era?
Jewish Soldiers in Blue & Gray
Coinciding with the 150th anniversary of the Civil War, JEWISH SOLDIERS IN BLUE & GRAY is the first-of-its-kind film that reveals the little-known struggles facing Jewish Americans both in battle and on the home front during the nation's darkest hour. Allegiances during the War Between the States split the Jewish community as deeply as the national debate in the country at large. Some prominent Jewish voices cited the Torah to justify slavery, while others led the abolitionist movement. The film presents a splendid collection of photographic and lithographic stills, fascinating anecdotes, interviews with noted historians, and dramatic readings of letters and historical speeches (Sam Waterson voices Abraham Lincoln). Narrated by Oscar-nominated screenwriter John Milius, JEWISH SOLDIERS IN BLUE & GRAY archives the sacrifices Jews made as they defended both the Union and the Confederacy.
