Analysis Of The Movie Glory

The movie Glory can be described as a classic “underdog story.” It is a true story about a group of African American soldiers known as the 54th Massachusetts Regiment who faced constant prejudice and resentment by white soldiers and officers throughout the Union. However, under the leadership of Colonel Robert Shaw, they were able to prove themselves as a formidable fighting force at the battle of Fort Wagner. Although the 54th Regiment suffered heavy casualties they showed the Union that African American soldiers could be just as effective as white soldiers. While the movie Glory did paint an accurate picture of the Civil War, the 54th Regiment, and the Battle of Fort Wagner, it did have its fair share of stereotypes.

Why is the movie called Glory? Is it really glory? I strongly believe not only is the movie glory itself, but the characters represent the idea of glory throughout the movie as well. Glory is a high rank of honor, which involves tireless amounts of work to get to. Not only did the characters in the movie represent the movie well, but portrayed the Civil War in a proud manner as well. There are many characters that represent glory, but there are three that stand out among the rest. Those characters are Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, Corporal Thomas Searles, and Sergeant Major John Rawlins.

At the forefront of this movie are racial issues which we know were rife at the time throughout America. The relationship between sport and psychology is not abundantly clear in this film. I believe, however that, that is because the film was not made for that purpose, as a documentary or article may have. The film was made for the purpose of entertainment, and to tell the story of the Texas Miner -Which it effectively does. In saying that, being a sport psychology student and after critically watching and examining the film, I was also clearly able to see many psychological concepts and issues woven throughout the film, there relationship to sport, and the effects it had on the Texas Miners, and their Championship winning team.

Eventually their commander tells army officials , “ There's character. There's strength of heart. You should have seen us in action two days ago. We were a sight to see!” (Zwick). This leads the military to ask the regiment to lead a charge on Fort Wagner, a charge they know to be a death sentence. The most touching part of this scene is that these men are not one bit afraid to die for their country. Their
