Historical Civil War Reenactment Movie from the 1950âsThis film, made by Encyclopedia Britannica, educates older school children about the American Civil Warâs most important events, with special focus on the social, economic, and geographical elements of each battle. Civil War weapons and Civil War flags clash in this great educational video. Striking visuals include Civil War reenactments, animated drawings, and color photography. Because this is a vintage film, it's also interesting to see how the Civil War sites were much less developed in the 1950's. The major battles of the Civil War is a large topic and this film provides an excellent overview (not simply a list of Civil War battles), making a great classroom movie.
