The heart-stopping story of the first Black regiment to fight for the Union army in the Civil War, GLORY is an epic drama that brings a stirring true chapter of American history to the screen with stunning immediacy. Led by the idealistic white Bostonians Colonel Robert Gould Shaw (Matthew Broderick) and Major Cabot Forbes (Cary Elwes), the outfit includes Major John Rawlins (Morgan Freeman), an inspirational officer who unites the troops, and Private Silas Trip (an Oscar-winning Denzel Washington), a runaway slave who embodies the indomitable spirit of the Fifty-Fourth Regiment of Massachusetts. Together they embark on a journey from the North to the battlefields of the South that will change the course of the war.
