The Civil War (Ken Burns Style)

I watched the Ken Burns Civil War production as well, not all nine hours, though I have seen all nine hours. I watched the episode, "The Universe of Battle". I chose this one because it was mainly about the battle of Gettysburg and I wanted to see how it was presented. Generally, this battle is one that is made into folklore, more legend and myth than history. I was very impressed with how Ken Burns presented this particular battle. The talking heads he used were knowledgeable about the conditions and events that occurred, and they didn't seem too boring. He did use the floating over pictures, showing some close up and then slowly panning out, but it didn't detract from the overall film. I enjoyed this episode the first time I saw it, and I enjoyed it again this time.
