I was (and still am) in a Civil War kick after doing some extensive family tree research the past few months. I have discovered that I had many,many relatives that fought for the CSA...several giving the 'last full measure of devotion' to their cause.
I stumbled across "The Last Confederate" at Walmart the week it was released and decided to take a gamble and purchased it.
For a truly independent film, this film is exceptional. Granted it won't win any awards because it may not contain the necessary acting "standards." Regardless, it was very refreshing to see a film produced, written, directed and starring such impassioned folks, the ancestors of the title character, Robert Adams. Accurate battle scenes...Fairly authentic details..I especially liked seeing a dead Confederate soldier wearing a "US" belt buckle.
My rating for "The Last Confederate" (out of five):
Of course, your mileage may vary!
