Free State of Jones 15
“A neglected and fascinating chapter in American history...using the tools of Hollywood spectacle to restore a measure of clarity to our understanding of the war and its aftermath.” - The New York Times
This new Civil War film starring Matthew McConaughey is well researched film with a great respect for historical truth. It tells the story of a defiant Southern farmer who leads a group of white farmers and runaway slaves in a rebellion against the Confederacy.
