One of the film s stars Denzel Washington admits that he was unaware i knew absolutely said the actor who portrays a bitter runaway slave. I did t even know Hal Blacks ought in the civil War. The american classes that i took did t seem to dwell on that at All ii was inspiring Lor me it gave me a lot of Energy to continue research and gel further and further into glory is partly based on two books about the 54th Massachusetts coloured Volunteer infantry Lay this Laurel and one Gallant Rush As Well As the letters of Robert Gould Shaw the Boston Brahman who commanded the All Black unit. The script by Kevin Jarre describes How Shaw had to fight his army superiors in order to outfit his soldiers and win Battle duty.

Elsewhere the martyred Steven Biko of cry Freedom and the Earnest police chief of the mighty Ouinn is scarcely recognizable. Someone told me they did t know i was in the the 33-year-old actor said with a smile. I wanted to do something different and to feel removed irom the present time it s difficult to do a period piece and to give yourself As an actor a different feeling As though you re in a different one of the ironies of glory comes at the Climax when the 54th is sent on the first wave against the impregnable Forl Wagner which guarded Charleston Harbor. It appears to be a suicide Mission these men were looking for an Opportunity to prove said Washington. The Battle was no More dangerous than their Day to Day lives with the constant threat of slavery and slave masters with their mentality Over their Heads they were looking for the Opportunity to have a Lair Light and to have a Rille As Well regardless of the Odds " on july 18. 1863. Despite extensive fatigue and poor rations the 54th Massachusetts marched across Hall a mile of Sand to Lead the ill planned attack on Forl Wagner the regiment lost More than 40 percent of its men As did the White regiments that followed. Forl Wagner was never taken by Union soldiers. Film goers will to shocked by the movie s Battle scenes in which Confederate and Union soldiers March toward each other and fire Point Blank. The tactic is historically accurate Washington noted this was the first War with new weaponry he said but they were still using revolutionary War tactics. The rifles they used then were less accurate and less powerful. They still fought the War Between the states As they Call it with a lot of Honor and regimentation 100 feet apart blowing their brains Washington grew up in mount Vernon he began studying Medicine at Fordham University but soon switched to drama.

Beside glory Lor which he is a Likely Oscar candidate he has completed heart condition a wild comedy with Bob Hoskins and love supreme a musical irom Spike Lee. Family Circle Magazine recently surveyed 22 million female Reader to find out what features they wanted most in a dream House. Their ideas Are incorporated in such a House being built in suburban Atlanta most of the things the women suggested i held out for in a Home we built seven years ago. Our Utility room is not off the Kitchen it s near the bedrooms so i can Dunk shot my sheets into the Washer there is a walk in pantry where you walk in Al your own risk but my Kitchen looks great no doors cover my cabinets i always left like a game contestant standing in front of my old ones wondering which door held the Brown sugar and which one the and traps there Are no draperies in the House and no show curtains All i Ever did anyway was Cut Oil the mi1 jew periodically until All i had was a Valance my ironing Board is attached to the Wall of the Utility room and is up All the Lime this Way i can Tell people i d Lake my ironing Board Down but it s attached to the Wall i had a greenhouse window installed in the Kitchen Lor sick plants that need tic and More Sun. Ironically it holds every live Plant in the House. Sounds like an enchanted cottage does t if wrong Given a second Chance.

I Haven t worked out All the bugs on this one. Bul i d like a Chute off the Utility room for hand washable anything left in the Chute for three years would drop into a compost and when broken Down with a chemical would turn into mulch for roses. The trouble with most Homes is Hal men design them and women clean them.
