The Civil War's most famous battle is the center of this epic drama. The film    was acclaimed for its historical detail and the fine performances from a cast    that includes Tom Berenger, Jeff Daniels, Martin Sheen and Sam Elliott. Based    on Michael Shaara's Pulitzer Prize-winning book, The Killer Angels.      Although originally filmed for cable television, strong critical reaction      earned the film a brief theatrical release despite its considerable length.    Ronald F.
