The Andersonville Trial . . . A Man Who Lost His Soul . . .

[KCOliver1960]

Once I got past the"Captain Kirk vs. Admiral Nelson" image, I found this to be one of the best things PBS had over shown.

I wish more people would watch this and learn about Andersonville as well as the "reservations" for Native Americans in the 19th century. Little more than early concentration camps. Wirtz was a monster.

One of William Shatner's best performances, and Richard Baseheart's as well. This production was also a reunion of the two, having been part of the cast of the 1958 movie of The Brothers Karamazov, with Yul Brenner.

Hollywood did a very poor job on Shatner's uniform! The Silver Oak Leaf on his shoulder bar is a Lt. Col. The single row of buttons on his frock coat is a Lieutenant or Captain, and his should have two rows of buttons running up and down the front about 7 inches apart. The biggest error is his belt with THREE gold bands, which is that of a General. His belt should have TWO gold bands and if he is a Lt. Col., he would not have been PERMITTED to wear that belt in court!

Top notch acting for Basehart and Shatner. Both of them have made me cry at one time or another. Just look into their eyes, wow!!

Thanks for posting.

Not bad - even with a little overacting by Shatner, look at all these stars in a PBS Production.
