    • Goofs
      The film has John Lund's Confederate officer give himself up and declare the Civil War over, because Richmond, Virginia had just surrendered (in early April 1865). However, in actual fact the Confederate Army of Trans-Mississippi, of which he was part, fought on and did not surrender for another month-and-a-half.
