Great movie says so much about war that is still true today and trying to stay impartial and how it is not as easy as one thinks. - @Thursday, December 28, 2017 8:31 PM

The complete soundtrack album to SHENANDOAH, composed by Frank Skinner and conducted by Joseph Gershenson, is now available - in excellent sound quality - on most downloading and streaming sites. - @Sunday, January 1, 2017 9:44 PM

Fantastic old movie. The trailer does not do it justice. Civil war era Virginia family who owned no slaves, nor had friends who owned slaves, and believed it was wrong to use force against men, makes a moral case against fighting the war between the states. There are fantastic moral statements and human life affirming values throughout. - @Thursday, October 20, 2016 12:18 PM

The narrator of the trailer sounds like John Huston, who directed Doug McClure in The Unforgiven 6 years earlier. - @Friday, May 27, 2016 5:10 PM

I have just watched this movie again....I had seen it thirty odd years ago and it is still as riveting now as it was to me back then. It looks good and it is good...... Jimmy Stewart at his very best.....Cheers - @Tuesday, August 28, 2012 7:22 AM
