"'Marrow, we go into battle, so Lordy, let us fight with the rifle with one hand, and the Good Book with the other, that if I should die at the mussel of the rifle, die on water, or on land. I know that you, Blessed Jesus, Almighty are with me, and I have no fear - Amen."
most touching part of this line is that he didn´t stammer when he said " I have no fear'. Thanks for higlighting it. I really need it to hear that as well.
and...furthermore...it's TRUE!! Stories have been passed down in my family about how the white soldiers would give all the black slave children hugs, and the little girls would put flowers in their pants pockets when they walked by...they were allowed to touch the white soldiers, but not the black ones. From South Carolina toVirginia up to D.C. they said it was chaos all night long.
I think that was the purpose of the scene. Bring that Black Southern Baptist Church vibe into the scene. The slaves didn't have much to hang on to except their families and their religion. That's how they found their strength. And that's what they brought into the battle, majority of them anyway. Denzel's character had neither family nor religion, he used inner strength.
"Ain much bout no prayin nah but..." lol Denzel killed that role. And ol Morgan was clapping like my aunte when she in her church feelings heavy 😂 Everybody went into their bag heavy for this film.
Denzel's character has used bitterness to shield himself his whole life, to keep him from being hurt again due to his mistreatment. Here he tries to breakthrough a lifetime of that and be sentimental for the sake of his comrades and his soul should he die in battle.
Yeah man that’s what makes this scene epic and he killed it ! You can see his tough guy image holding back his soft words and tears but he couldn’t hold it
In 1990 I was in 8th grade and the teacher played this movie in our class on VHS. Before watching Glory, all the students in the classroom has to have an approval signed from their parents to watch it. For those who didn't sign, they had time to spend in the library and read a book. Fast forward to 2020 and this movie still moves me.
The most powerful and moving scene in the movie. The first engagement I was in I was singing this song and remembering this scene. Sadly in history, over 50% of these men did not make it back. It was there great gettin up mornin.
to know that death is coming, and having "no fear" to face it because they know that Blessed Jesus Almighty is with them and that they completely accept what is going to be "their great gettin up mornin" they are ready when the Lord calls them home
Fitting that I watch this movie on the 4th of July. This scene is bittersweet. These men know that they are walking into certain death. All of them leaving their families knowing that they would “die standing up”. Others, like Tripp, had no family other than the 54th. They all had each other. God Bless then all!
Freeman who played the Sgt/Major really woke sense into the men. For what they were fighting and dying for. What Union soldiers before them were dying. Freedom and oppression. Young people forget that today.
Denzel was incredible in this movie... shiiiit everybody was, andre braugher, Morgan Freeman, Carey elwes, Matthew Broderick... just an incredible movie all around
First American Holocaust: the Native wipeout Second American Holocaust: Slavery an important film It's available on Netflix right now. I'm watching this scene and paused to make this comment. Please watch with your family
Greetings of Brazil, man. I have a great respect for military, because my grandfather, son of italians, was to the War behind Arabs and Israel, in 1956 like peace force's of ONU. He was of Batalhão de Suez, if you want research. In my family, I have so many familiar who were to the war, the grandfather of my grand mother, like Marine by the Brazilian forces, was to Firt World War. One more time, thanks, man, you have my respect (Sorry by my english)
This film is pretty much required watching for every high school history class. The fact it's still not in the National Film Registry is criminal. I watch it every year and still tear up at least once every time
Doobie Keebler Glory was partly about the racism us Black men facing while fighting in the civil war...so glory is partly about Black people...glory is a movie Black people can identify with because of the racism those brothers experience during the civil war...and of course we face and experience much more extreme racism today as Black people.
@@whatotherfoodfish7565 The USA didn't invent slavery. Remember, we're only here because we were sold into bondage, by fellow Africans. Those Africans share equal guilt with the Europeans, (and don't forget the Arabs, they were trafficking more slaves than whites).
@@NashvilleSaint I never said it did. I swear, do y'all even read the shit you reply to? All I'm saying is stop cherry picking one country's past, when this is still a current global problem.
I'll never forget when I was a teen, my mom and I happened to watch this movie on TV in separate rooms and didn't know. When she walked out of her room, she was crying just as hard as I was. This IS one of the greatest depictions of war and one of the most important stories ever told.
These brave men are a large part of the freedoms I now enjoy in 2019. The continuity of love of family &home connects me to them as well as their obvious faith in Jesus Christ as Savior& Lord. They gave everything of who they are, just for the chance of life & liberty. We , today are debtors to them all. I for one am extremely greatful to God and to them; they are part of the fabric of my soul !
This scene felt so real to me. I can easily imagine this happening exactly as it did onscreen. Especially touching are the comments like "that's alright", and Morgan Freeman's acceptance, when Denzel opens up. It's such a perfect display of the bigger picture, the brotherhood that united them (and should still unite all of us).
One of the Best Historical Movies I've Ever Seen to Date. 10000%- RESPECT for Each and Every One of these Heroes. Battalion 54 were the TRUE Freedom-Fighters, Etched in Timeless GLORY.
One of the most memorable moments of the movie for me at 00:52 “and I have no fear, amen...” that always makes me go a big rubbery one. Patriot words...
Denzels part was brilliant. The 2nd iteration of "we men" let's you know that they were not fighting for freedom or to become men. They were fighting to put the others on notice that they were fighting because they were already free and already men. It didn't matter what happened because they were never under any circumstance not going to be men Sometimes we need to remind ourselves how free we are in spirit
I love when Thomas finally allows himself to join in the singing at the end, too -- as if he's finally embraced a culture and heritage that is his, but which had seemed so foreign to him up to that point. An excellent example of visual story-telling played perfectly by the actors involved.
Nah they had to fight in order to become men. The whole movie is about how the Union Army would not let Black Soldiers fight. Black Soldiers had to be beneath 2nd class. They trained and worked their ass off like everyone else maybe even harder but they were not being allowed to fight. They were only being used in a subservient role. It's ALWAYS the Degradation. The belittlement of a capable entity will always diminish it's true value. And value was being diminished here was these Soldiers right to fight as Men. You enslaved me, you destroyed my history, my family, my existence, grant me the "Right to fight my enemy like a Natural Man".
@@thirdpowerful1 I was waiting for someone to bring that up. I thought his personal growth was the largest of all of them. Because he was born a free man. His father was a also a free man. He had to be broken down to their level before being built back up. It only served to make him stronger because found out who he really was. One of them.
@@KingBranBDM that is the way i interpret it. it was like Trip was telling it to Jesus, that under Jesus they are men, and kind of defying the confederate view of blacks being "subhuman" and therefore not men, per se. So when trips says "we men aint we?" it means "we are soldiers fighting on equal terms against the soldiers of the enemy force". "we are men, fighting men". he realized that he stopped being the "n-a" word, and became just a Man, which is what every Man is.
Scene draws a tear! For every soldier that prepared to go into battle...that last night before ! Platoon showed that every soldiers faces that moment !
✡️ I would like to say I remember and love my beautiful people who sacrificed their lives for me to be here today love you my ancestors a hard struggle through bondage for such a long time and we still struggle today but we're going to make it by the hands of the almighty father in heaven so I shed many tears for my people our pain and struggle father free us from the hands of our oppressors all praises and love to the most high my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and our ancestors who came here before us✡️
In middle school, they showed this movie to pretty much my whole school. During Athletics period, all the guys in the gymnasium were singing this song. Including me.
No movie,.... tears me up like this one does. Glory has been oneof my favorites and the only movie has 4 parts that make me cry everytime! Lol... When Trip gets whipped, this praying scene, before they go off to battle on the beaches and when Trip gets killed 😭 Thank you my brothas of the 54th and all black soldiers that served. I love and appreciate all you did and experienced so your great grandson today can live a better life. Your sacrifices will NEVER be forgotten.
Definitely one of those scenes you cannot pull away from, no matter how hard you try - magical, spiritual, emotional...the connection of the group is felt so much...nothing could touch them within their service.
His character Tripp never knew anything but pain, fear, and oppression. Because of this, he always has up a shield. He always acts aggressive and comes off as a bully in the regiment. Well when your whole life has been nothing but being made to feel afraid, that's just a self-defense mechanism. You can tell here in this scene, this is one of the first (and sadly, last) times in his life where his guard is down, and he is with the only family and friends he has ever had. It's so hard for him to speak, because he is overcome with confusing emotion. Simply amazing acting.
One of the great scenes in film history, and who watches it any more? So many cultural, historical, and spiritual threads coming together here, about America’s past and future, delivered by two of the greatest American actors, Denzel Washington and Morgan Freeman. Great stuff.
Hallelujah! Praise The Lord! Rest In Peace to all these brave men that gave their life for a change. Thank God that they had Jesus as their Lord and Savior. They all have eternal life by His mighty grace and mercy for us. Thank you Jesus!
One the most Inspirational moments, really carved a place in my heart, since I ever I first saw this 25+ yrs ago!! Oh My Lord, Lord, Lord! I sing this to myself to get to sleep!
The brotherhood of men in uniform. There is no stronger bond than with the men you spill your blood alongside in the "crucible of combat." Brave and decent men. Men we should all be proud of.
Glory is, by far, my favorite "achievement" film ever made. There are just too many meaningful and emotionally moving scenes to pick a favorite, but this beautiful expression of brotherhood before a fateful battle really had me tearing up in the theater when I first saw it, and again, just now.
For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, even penetrating as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. Hebrews 4:12
Guess what... it'll hit you again 20 years later when you see it again. There are things I watched at your age.. that I feel more power towards now I'm in my mid-40's. Even Star Trek episodes.
I remember going to see this movie when it came out, I think I was about 10 11, at the end of the movie I clearly can remember grown men and women coming out of the movie at the end crying their eyes out, it was profound for me even at that age. ever since I was little I was a big history buff and it became one of my favorite movies, as I got older I realized even more so how great the acting and the scenes were, definitely one of my top 5 movies. Bronx tale(my Italian heritage), Goodwill Hunting, Rocky, Glory, Braveheart, probably my top five sentimental
This is one expression of corporate prayer. It is simple, yet beautiful, genuine, and powerful. God hears these prayers and chooses to act when people humble themselves and pray. May we all begin to do this very simple act of prayer. Let’s not overly complicate one of our foundational elements of faith.
Even my daddy’s grandad had to b ready...... and some of them were.......I stand because they did.......Joey Rieves I read about you all.... Great ones and I’ll never forget it...... never forget it ......Thank you Dear elders..... put on the armor Of God...... “we men ain’t we””!! Let us go forth.......
As black actors, I gotta believe that the acting was exceptional for one very good reason. It’s the fact that this was deeply felt on a level that most others will never grasp. Being black in America and knowing our history as black people. It’s almost as if it was not acting. It was reliving our ancestors hurt, struggles and hopes for a better life.
As a field artilleryman who served 30 years in the Army with 13 years overseas including a combat tour in Vietnam, this movie in general and this scene in particular touched me on several levels.
Y'alls the onliest family I got! POWERFUL.....Ain't much a matter of what happens tomorrow, cause we men ain't we!!! CHILLS run every time I watch this movie.......The actors reached to the ancestors for this scene.
"We men, ain't we?"
Damn right they were.
3rdpapaya Yes they were!
Amen.
They died free men!
Amen
@@dimitrov505z8 Tripp came full circle right there, what a scene.
"'Marrow, we go into battle, so Lordy, let us fight with the rifle with one hand, and the Good Book with the other, that if I should die at the mussel of the rifle, die on water, or on land. I know that you, Blessed Jesus, Almighty are with me, and I have no fear - Amen."
Amen

Love that scene
most touching part of this line is that he didn´t stammer when he said " I have no fear'. Thanks for higlighting it. I really need it to hear that as well.
Amen✌️
What man can watch this without his eyes tearing up? This is one of the greatest American movies ever made.

“We died facing the enemy, we went down standing up”
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾
Words to live by!!!!!😎😎😎😎
When you have God with you it's all that matters. They went as proud men
Amen, my brother
Amen...
Powerful scene, a very underrated movie.
Your avatar is underrated too but such a great movie
Anthony Caputo I agree. Classic movie that will never go old due to us watching it.
this movie won many awards, it was hardly underrated
@@gmoney4715 well yeah but also because it's history

Morgan Freeman was feeling it on this the way he was clapping and had his eyes closed it was in his soul! Morgan was like he was in church!!!

"Ain much bout no prayin nah but..." lol Denzel killed that role. And ol Morgan was clapping like my aunte when she in her church feelings heavy 😂 Everybody went into their bag heavy for this film.
I love Denzels speech here cause you could tell they are all brothers by now in this movie even closer than that
Denzel's character just breaks the heart...
He was the most masculine. Him and Thomas. Thomas became a man.
You are an idiot.
Just say what you think say what you feel
You allz the only family i got
I fought to be free
No words can do this justice. These men were willing to die so as no other would need to. They did for those not even born. Real heroes....
They paid the price so that those who came behind them could be free
Because they had God with them!
And still were not given equal citizenship
Great men. Fighting for what the country could be, just like we all have to do today.
@@Dcain2 It took time. But this was a grand start.
One of Morgan Freeman's greatest roles!
An extremely powerful scene by actors that know what the f*** they're doing. Amazing
Exactly
His best imo
Denzel's character has used bitterness to shield himself his whole life, to keep him from being hurt again due to his mistreatment. Here he tries to breakthrough a lifetime of that and be sentimental for the sake of his comrades and his soul should he die in battle.

Today some states would ban the movie from being played
We watched in 8th grade too, back in 1997.
The most powerful and moving scene in the movie. The first engagement I was in I was singing this song and remembering this scene.
Sadly in history, over 50% of these men did not make it back. It was there great gettin up mornin.
40% casualties in the assault on Fort Wagner alone. They held out as long as they could.
They were absoutely fearless. They proved beyond a doubt that a black regiment could face a while one an not break
"We go down standin' up!" Brave men. Love this movie!
With God they're always standing up
to know that death is coming, and having "no fear" to face it because they know that Blessed Jesus Almighty is with them and that they completely accept what is going to be "their great gettin up mornin" they are ready when the Lord calls them home
@Lion of God Amen! Amen! Amen! Cant agree with you more.
One of the most moving movies I've ever seen. My 2 friends and i just sat there at the end for like 10 minutes before we left the theater.

As hard as I try not to, I cry every time I watch Denzel's speech.
Me too
@@tyronesanders4325 Hard not to, truly moving
Denzel's acting....the guy I swear brings it nearly every scene. Legendary actor.
Got some dust in my eye!
Deserved the Oscar, absolutely
It's okay fam. Our ancestors paid a heavy price for us to have what we have today. We must always honor them.
When Tripp said... "Yalls the onliest family I got" that shit hurt me
Same man and how he just stared away trying to get the true words out man 🔥
Denzel is the GOAT. what an actor. The best
give em hell 54th!!!
They tried and failed but they knew that they would die and still did it knowing that they would serve their country proud
Love that part too.
This scene plays on so many levels -- and two of our greatest actors making it real.

Glory is, by far, my favorite "achievement" film ever made. There are just too many meaningful and emotionally moving scenes to pick a favorite, but this beautiful expression of brotherhood before a fateful battle really had me tearing up in the theater when I first saw it, and again, just now.
i can't stop crying everytime i watch this scene.
Me too
What is really & truly sad is that these brothers were willing to die and some did die for a country that had them in slavery.
For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, even penetrating as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Hebrews 4:12
I cry every time when I see this. Powerful!
Me too. Very emotional scene.
One of my fave civil war movies! Great performances by the cast. I still watch this often!
Last time I watched this I was probably too young to fully grasp the full power of the film... Think now that I'm 28 I'll give it another watch.
Guess what... it'll hit you again 20 years later when you see it again. There are things I watched at your age.. that I feel more power towards now I'm in my mid-40's. Even Star Trek episodes.
Watch it again when you're 42, the older you get the more meaningful.
I had this scene for my deployment in 2003 as well very powerful
These scene gets me emotional an teary eyed every time I watch it.
I love this song it always gives me chills i thank god for these brave men who fought for my freedom
I remember going to see this movie when it came out, I think I was about 10 11, at the end of the movie I clearly can remember grown men and women coming out of the movie at the end crying their eyes out, it was profound for me even at that age. ever since I was little I was a big history buff and it became one of my favorite movies, as I got older I realized even more so how great the acting and the scenes were, definitely one of my top 5 movies. Bronx tale(my Italian heritage), Goodwill Hunting, Rocky, Glory, Braveheart, probably my top five sentimental
I love this scene its so dear to my heart
The humanity is beautiful.
Great movie,great song i have that for years on my cell phone.Respect to black people!
I swear Morgan Freeman could be a preacher.
It's such a moving scene to watch. I blows me away every time. God speed 54th Massachusetts infantry soldiers.
They played this in my History Class in 11th grade back in 1991●♤3•
Thats crazy. They played this in my class in 11th grade back in 2010!
This is one expression of corporate prayer. It is simple, yet beautiful, genuine, and powerful. God hears these prayers and chooses to act when people humble themselves and pray. May we all begin to do this very simple act of prayer. Let’s not overly complicate one of our foundational elements of faith.

Denzel's character found what he was looking for in his final day in this world. What a movie!
Such a bad ass scene! Denzel coming to fruition.
Even my daddy’s grandad had to b ready...... and some of them were.......I stand because they did.......Joey Rieves I read about you all.... Great ones and I’ll never forget it...... never forget it ......Thank you Dear elders..... put on the armor Of God...... “we men ain’t we””!!
Let us go forth.......
These guys are good! Keep singing ya’ll ✝️❤️🙏
GIVE EM HELL 54TH..
As black actors, I gotta believe that the acting was exceptional for one very good reason. It’s the fact that this was deeply felt on a level that most others will never grasp. Being black in America and knowing our history as black people. It’s almost as if it was not acting. It was reliving our ancestors hurt, struggles and hopes for a better life.
WE WENT DOWN STANDING UP AMEN
When I hear their cries and voices singing...I feel like that I’m ready lord..too come home to you,
Amazing scene. Denzel is an American treasure
“We men, ain’t we?” Cuts to the pith.
One of the greatest movies I’ve ever seen
As a field artilleryman who served 30 years in the Army with 13 years overseas including a combat tour in Vietnam, this movie in general and this scene in particular touched me on several levels.
This scene made me cry
Y'alls the onliest family I got! POWERFUL.....Ain't much a matter of what happens tomorrow, cause we men ain't we!!! CHILLS run every time I watch this movie.......The actors reached to the ancestors for this scene.
They went on to lose that battle...
But win the war.
A small sacrifice
A speech in form of a soul song, nice.
Very powerful acting from some great actors in a terrific movie.
