I was extremely excited when I found out this movie was going to be shown on TV - I was 11 years old, almost 12 and probably read "Red Badge" about 5 times already - me and my older brother were big Civil War fans at the time, we ended up participating in the reenactment at Gettysburg in 1976 (underage but convincingly lied about my age). I like the Audie Murphy film but it was hacked to pieces by the producers because "who the hell wants to watch a Civil War movie?" Idiots. This was way before the more recent popularity of the war that came with the Ken Burns special, Glory, Gettysburg, etc. and the hundreds of books published about the war in the last few decades. We didn't have the Internet, only a few books at the local and school libraries but I did have a copy of the "American Heritage Picture History of the Civil War" which I still have that was read/reread and paged through hundreds of times. Even though reenactments started during the Centennial (1960s) there were very few local reenactors in the area in the early/mid 70s. Anyway..memories.

The current civil war re-enactment movement started soon after this movie was made. Imagine a new big budget production of this book with reenactors in the backgrounds to make the battle scenes the right size, with a good cast and directing

Richard Thomas always delivers. This is a classic work of arr,tho the novel is always better.

The scene in the Murphy version where you see the Confederate troops through the smoke, in black and white, really gives you an idea how terrifying it must have been to be in your first battle. This version is great, but just doesn't get that across. I guess as the Murphy version ws made by mostly WW2 vets had a lot to do with how it was made

As a veteran the courage the men in the civil war had is unbelievable in our time. It’s very hard to even comprehend the amount of people each side faced. The napoleonic front lines must have been horrible. The civil war was the very last of that type of fighting. God bless Everyman that died to make this a free country. I hope and pray we can fix the problems brought on by weak liberals. How many died because democrats didn’t want to give up ownership of another human? Now they are teaching children they can pick their gender. They are taking God out of everything. These are dark times maybe not the darkest yet. But weak men make for hard times.

Chapter 1 of the book tells of Henry going off to serve in the Civil War, and saying goodbye to his mother and all his classmates at the seminary. Some editions of the book have a historical footnote stating that at the time a seminary simply meant a high school, and not a theological institution. No telling how many readers who did not know this pictured Henry throughout the novel as a future man of the cloth who put a vocation on hold to serve and saw the war through religious eyes.

All 3 major movie adaptations of the book did a great unique take on it.

I think I recall an account of the author of this novel being unusually realistic about the gruesome aspects of Infantry service in the war. On a grammer school outing to the sea shore, Crane had organized a senario that had their group of boys burying a companion in the sand and then digging him up. When the young female teacher happened by and inquired as to just what exactly they were doing he explained that their unfortunate comrade had been killed in battle and hastily buried before they remembered that he had had a flask of fine whiskey in his pocket so now they were digging him back up to retrieve it. Horrible! The teacher was indeed aghast and declared that Crane must be mentally unbalanced to think of such things.

Nothing like as good as the 1950s original which captured the atmosphere and the mindset of the day, including the dialect of much of rural Americans in the 1860s. The original showed how ordinary these young men were ,caught up in this terrible conflict and most of the time having no idea of what was going on. The original was cut about , making it very short. I look forward to a remake that captures the age authentically as John Houston’s film did. This version is a typical 1970s idea of the past in America, not accurate at all.

Civil War reenacting didn't get really started until after the 200th Anniversary of the "Revy War". I remember those original 125th Anniversary CW reenactors of the '80s. They were the ones who found the original Hardee's drill manuals, demanded authentic 3 band muskets, and made the authentic gear. The result was wonderful reenactments. It's not the "Trapdoors" that bother me. It's not the Kepis. It's not the '70s haircuts. It's the California countryside. With the exception of "The Wilderness" and "Shiloh", most of the battles were on neatly tended farms. BTW, my favorite reenactment was of "Mud-Freeze-Boro" of '93. I was union and it seemed every Reb in Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, Mississippi, and Missouri showed up. There was about 8,000 Rebs and that line extended forever. We union reenactors were commenting "So this is what many a union line were looking at before they were turned into a grease spot on the ground."

Fredericksburg was winter. Chancellorsville was a horrible union defeat that emboldened Lee to cross the Potomac and invade Pennsylvania. Then the armies met at Gettysburg July 1st l, 2nd and 3rd of 1863. It wasn't the peninsula campaign of 1862. Or the overland campaign of 1864. Your right, sometime around Chancellorsville when Joe Hooker was overconfident and got his clock cleaned by Lee.

I'm sorry but I absolutely hated this book in high school as well as this 1974 remake, for at the time having had many friends and relatives already serving ignominiously in the bowels of the Vietnam war. It romanticized becoming a 'man' by facing one's fears in the face of armed conflict. True, facing one's fears and cowardice is admirable but encouraging others to do the same through warfare is deluded and childish. Anything that glorifies the bitter ardor of battle is simply wrong. Seeing someone killed or horribly disfigured by gunfire or shrapnel has a way of maturing the soul by forcing one to embrace such cruel realities. I don't recommend that either.
