Wissenswertes
The movie is based on a true event: On October 19, 1864, 21 Confederate cavalrymen entered the U.S from Canada, arriving about 15 miles south in St. Albans, Vermont. Confederate agent George Sanders organized the event, and Lieutenant Bennett Young led the raid. Young mounted the steps of a hotel and shouted, "This city is now in the possession of the Confederate States of America!" The Confederates robbed three banks, then ran back over the border. They also planned to blow up downtown with dynamite, but it rained. In 1914, Vermont placed a historic marker in front of Taylor Park, commemorating what became the northernmost engagement of the Civil War. A commemorative plaque is at the entrance of what was the Franklin County Bank. It is the only one of the three banks involved that is still standing and still a bank.

When Major Benton gets off the train the first time, the sound of air brakes is clearly heard. However, the Westinghouse air brake was not invented until 1869, five years after the action in the movie occurred.

See it – I'm always a sucker for a good Civil War movie. If you are anything like me, you're always on the lookout for another film with a fresh depiction of that fascinating, yet tragic period in United States history. I like this one because it tells the story from the Confederate perspective. Van Heflin, Lee Marvin, and Richard Boone star in this exciting and relatively unknown film about a band of Confederate Rebels who escape from a Union prison camp. They escape to Canada, and start planning "The Raid" on a Northern Yankee town. Of course this movie is very "old-fashioned," but I guess that's why I like it. 3 action rating
