What a treat I have for fans of the movie Gettysburg! In October, 2018, the cast of the 1993 movie Gettysburg came to town for a reunion and screening of the director's cut of the film. I arranged to have Patrick Gorman, who played Major General John Bell Hood, and Bo Brinkman, who played Lee's aide, Major Walter Taylor, sit down with me and my buddy Pete at my friend Tami's farm. We set up in her summer kitchen and just talked about their careers and the making of Gettysburg and Gods and Generals. This was great fun for two guys like Pete and I who have seen the film 3000 times. I hope you enjoy it.
