Ron Maxwell, Director of "Gettysburg" & "Gods and Generals"

Wonder what happen to the six hour Director's cut version?

It hasn't been released for 4 years when they supposed to released on 2005

[TCCTV]

A lot of people are eagerly awaiting this and it may be indeed released in the future. Keep the faith!

[sgtSoupy]

Awesome, so the director's cut 6 hour version is not canceled?

This is amazing series, and critics can go watch themselves cause they have no idea what a good movie is.

Everytime I see the trailer for "Gods and Generals" I still get chills. I don't care about what the critics say, I enjoyed the second installment in the Civil War trilogy. If I had the money, I would pay for the production of Last Full Measure.

i will definately buy it if they put Anteitam back in it. there is also scenes with both john wilkes booth and lincoln (not together)

[stevo03lw]

i agree we need Last Full Measure, complete the trilogy soon

[confederatefan]

i heared that there was another battle in gods and generals but it was taken out is that true????????? the battle is called antetem creek??????????? if u know anythin let me kno cheers

[Tuh0ne]

They took out the Battle of Antitem because the film was too long and they needed to cut down on the length.

[uncleluck]

The scene where Chamberlin's wife is in bed with Lincoln while her husband is at Fredricksburg was cut too.

what bout the directors cut of Gettysburg? is there one

[sparta25789]

there is a directors cut of gettysburg to i saw it on TNT once

[DandyQuackShot]

Oh man if he had kept the Booth subplot in the theatrical release of G&G that would have balanced it out for the critics. You can see in the preview some footage of Lincoln and the Chamberlains at the theater that wasn't in the movie. I would walk over glass to see the director's cut!!!

[corniboy]

Even though Gods and Generals was at least what almost 4 hours long...there were several scenes that were cut. I was in the brass band at the train station scene with Jackson. We were in a 2nd scene that was cut.

thanks for this post, i agree to wit kbuddha420 gettysburg was a well made movie, gods and generals was greatly computerised,and wish it had a more powerful music score like the first one,  but i sure hope a third one does come out! i apreciate all hes done thanks, im a history buff

[thrashrabbit]

Apparently Ted Turner pulled the plug on 'The Last Measure' so there wont be one...until someone else chips in. Maxwell's filming Joan of Arc at the moment

[revmary]

I Loved this movie and Gettysburg, I have them. I am waiting of Last Full Measure to be Made. When will it come out????? The Wilderness Wars. My Uncle was an extra in OGAG's He said Robert Duval was in the camp with them at Music time. I think Duval was MUCH better than Martin Sheen as LEE! My Great Great Grandfather was in Stonewall's Brigade! He was pardoned at Appomattox

[INEXANO]

I've loved Ron's movies through the years and I hope to see "The Last Full Measure" some day. Read the book, its fantastic.

[INEXANO]

I've heard that there was an entire Antietam segment that was cut from the movie. I would love to see the entire thing some day.

[TCCTV]

All we know about the third in the series is what Mr. Maxwell mentions near the end of the program -- that there are continuing discussions.

[TCCTV]

Yes, there is more footage. In this program, Ron Maxwell mentions a "Director's Cut" which may or may not be released in the future. I know many people would enjoy this.

Brilliant Film, not appreciated enough. Thanks For the post.
