When the kid asked for water the look on mcconougheys face said it all. He knew the boy was dying and there was nothing he could do. Awesome acting by Matt in this scene
Enfield 57 caliber musket ball tore into him through one of his vital organs. Plus with blood loss I kinda doubt he could've been saved.
@@wrestlingbear1188 yea any gutshot in that time was a painful death sentence. Glad we weren’t born in time to fight that war
Rest his soul.
@@mrswishadank2329 If you were gutshot in 1945 it's porbably bad for you. Hell, it's bad today.
Yup. He knew what that meant word for word because he's seen it so many times before hauling the mortaly wounded.
"He died with Honor, Newt."
"No Will, he just died..."
Bruh when he said that it just made me feel like I hit a brick wall.
I do feel he die with Honor. He could of just ran away from the battle. There's a scene in the movie Lincoln where Lincoln wakes his youngest son and shows him a letter he received about a boy who broke his family horses legs so he didn't have to go and fight. The letter said the boy was to be hanged for it and only Lincoln himself could stop it(pardon the boy that is) which is what he did and said there need not be anymore killing or dead unnecessary. Made me wonder could this boy have done the same and also get set free,probably not. So he did what he Country told him to do and there is Honor in that.
He died for slavery.
@@MrJames-tw3soit’s incredibly brave. But honorfull is what the cause can make it. This death had no honor. And that’s meant as negative critique to the commanders that got the boy there in the first place. The boy himself was a hero.
@@AF-vm6xx A hero? he was a confederate, so probably not
The way he looked for a nice spot to rest when he knew the boy was dying was amazing. Great acting
Agree he can act which is unusual for an American.

It’s still hard for me to comprehend that this generation fighting with Muskets and Gunpowder cannon lasted all the way until the Atomic and Jet age
Those who were young and survived and lived till a hundred.
Just over fifty years separate the end of the US civil war and the start of WW1.
You could have fought in the battle of Antietam and your son could have fought at Belleau Wood. And his son might have fought at Normandy.
America, and the whole world really, changed so much in 150 years it's hard to fathom.
@@aboxofbeans china, japan and India :🍷🗿
There’s a video on CZcams that was recorded in the 1950s. This guy was the last surviving witness to President Lincolns assassination. Imagine seeing that the invention of motor vehicles, planes, the US civil war, WW1/2 and the use of nuclear armaments. All in one lifetime. Guy was 4 years old during the assassination.
@@aboxofbeans yep, went from not being able to fly (well they had hot air balloons), to landing on the moon in under 100 years. one day your ridding your horse, the next day those wright brothers are actually flying in their contraptions, and the day after Neil Armstrong is landing on the moon.
Given the kind of treatment the boy would have received at the field hospital, passing in a quiet place, with the kind words of a family member to sooth you, this was a better place.
There are far worse ways to die,however what made this one so tragic was his age and something that could possibly been avoided. That is how war goes,those bullets have no names or care for who they pass through.
This scene becomes more powerful, when you become a dad...
Yes sir it does
Totally...
I watched this in theaters before becoming a father, no tears. Watching it 6 Years later, now a different story. It's haunting
I'm not even a Dad, yet. However, I couldn't imagine a situation like that with my own nephews/nieces. I love them and pray they never ever have to go through anything like that. May God protect our children Spiritually and physically.
Next war us men CANT LET THEM TAKE OUR SONS!!why should they go fight for someone who could care less about them💯
They say that if you have a fatal injury you get extremely thirsty because that is your brain’s only way that knows how to remedy the body, is to give it more water. Our bodies are like 70% water and so it’s just a natural response. If you are critically wounded and are super thirsty that is the end, unless you get immediate critical care.
It's because as you bleed out, your blood pressure begins to drop precipitously, reducing perfusion to the brain. So the brain calls out for water to "stretch" the blood. This is why you always see paramedics and ER doctors pushing Ringer's Lactate; the immediate emergency is blood pressure dropping to insufficient fluid volume and organ collapse.
In Mrs. Miniver a young woman (newlywed, to make it that much sadder) is hit by stray gunfire from a dogfight happening overhead. The mother-in-law, whom she's with, gets her home and eases her onto the floor to rest. A few moments later, the young woman asks for water, as her faculties are starting to fade. At that moment, the mother-in-law doesn't know whether she should accommodate the request, which means leaving her side, or staying with her so she won't die alone. She makes a split second decision to get the water, and when she returns with it, just a few seconds later, her daughter-in-law is already dead. A great, super-sad scene similarly to this one showing death being preceded by sudden severe thirst.
I like how this movie made no attempt to justify the Confederacy or defend their actions, and in fact showed how horrible it was, but nevertheless dared to show that they were human beings. And that most of the ones doing the actual fighting were just doing so for the same reason most soldiers serve in times of total war- because they were told to.
Exactly it's sad people think they were all evil
@@spencer_fife_and_drum_john9152 which one of them was ''''evil'''', you freakin' lunatic? 🤦🏻♂️
They were drafted.
Yes, but also perspective is everything. If you were a Southern in the mid 19th century, you yourself would also want to fight for your state.
My 4th great grandfather was in a North Carolina infantry regiment, and nearly all of his brothers died in combat. I also had family that fought for the union, but not as many.
This is simply just a historical movie. That’s why it’s awesome matty mc did well on this one
Ah yes, charging an entire line of Union soldiers with only 4-6 men.
They were trying to desert.
@@oTecx Certainly didn't look like it.
@@oTecxyou don’t fix bayonets and desert lol.
@@percapita1239 If you're running away then why would you further arm your rifle with a bayonet? It just doesn't make sense unless you want to actively look like you're trying to kill someone.
@@rinzlr3554the main character and the boy were trying to dessert. The officer was arrogant and hungry for war, he ordered them to do a suicide charge pretty much. But he let his men go first and was trying to make them go. The mc was trying to bide time telling the boy to “hold” so they could run off as the rest charged. As if they were caught deserting they’d get executed by their own side.
What a gut wrenching scene.
Yeah
How Newton takes his nephew out to a quiet spot away from all the chaos so he can die is heartbreaking.
So many young boys sacrificed in wars over centuries.
Wars caused by overinflated, rich, cowarrds
Yeah it’s just a movie but you all know damn well this war was brutal as could be.. that’s some powerful stuff. Props to Matthews acting, hot damn that was great
It is still to this day the deadliest war for Americans, because everyone in it who died was Americans.
In reality it was even worse
This happened irl dawg😭😭 thousands of young men died in the Civil War less than the age of 20
Mathew is an American treasure
3:55 *I choked up when I first watched and he says "Can I have some water?" Because I knew right then (and Mathew McConaughey too) It was too late... He was already gone* 😥 It chokes me up still everytime I see this scene. Outstanding acting on McConaughey's part.
Mathew is not only a brilliant actor but a decent human being as well and that's rare from someone from Hollywood
Is he? Don't be so sure about that.

Shot right in the liver, I don't think the medecine of the time could've done anything, even with the best it had to offer. It's a real shame...
The soft metals used in bullets at the time cause the projectile to "pancake" on impact causing devastating injuries. They only show the entry wound, but the exit wound would have probably been catastrophic.
A liver shot is deadly in any era. In Saving Private Ryan the medic played by Giovanni Ribisi was shot in the liver at the radar site. They couldn't help him in 1944. In Reservoir Dogs, the undercover cop played by Tim Roth was shot in the liver and was mortally wounded for almost the entirety of the film.
This is what I thought too. Takes a bit to die shot in the liver. Shot a deer in the liver once, found him dead right next to the closest water source 200 yards from where in shot him
Feels like WW1 some 50 years in advance. Reb vets must have heard and seen pictures of what their grand-sons were going through.
It would've been very interesting to hear the stories from civil war vets back then
@@lumbagoboi1649 I remember seeing a movie here in CZcams about one of the last civil war veterans in his late 80's in the 1920's being interview about the civil war, I believe was in the radio, the reporter askes him about the "rebel yell" or how did it sounded like and the old man tries to do a reenacting, by the way to me sounded similar to a coyote call...
@@freedom_aint_free Yip! Yip! Yip! Yip!
WW1, yeah. The American Civil War was when the accuracy of weapons fire had finally tilted the advantage to the defense because of the rifling of gun barrels. Prior to that, smooth bore muskets were used and they had poor accuracy, so a whole regiment in a line, shoulder to shoulder, would act like a big giant shot gun basically. Napoleon came a long and added closing swiftly to engage with bayonets as soon as possible. Wellington then came along and countered that with making sure his troops were behind the ridges of reverse slopes, and at Waterloo he had his troops on the elevated side of the battlefield and told his troops to get their colorful red coats dirty by lying on the ground. In essence Wellington did trench warfare before there were trenches. He was more than a few paradigms ahead of Napoleon, and hence the better general. The problem with the Civil War was that professional army went mostly to the Confederacy as leaders, leaving the Union with mostly leaders who had to learn by doing and hence did what Napoleon did, even though he was no longer the last word on tactics. (More than a few Civil War generals had pictures made of themselves putting a hand inside their frock coats like Napoleon). Gen. Lee followed Wellington. The main thing his army did was move as the attacker strategically, but when at the actual battle, move to the best available high ground and defend it. It was Grant who was the one who figured out that such a war could only be won by accepting unacceptably high casualties as the attacker. Previous Union generals would be stunned by the unpresidented casualties and break off their attacks after the initial battle. Grant just picked up and kept going, one battle after another. Sun Tzu in his "Art of War" says 'never fight with an enemy for too long or they were learn how to beat you. " That's what happened at Gettysburg. The first Union general there, Buford, saw the rebs coming to Gettyburg, and looked around him and all the hills and ridges around him and immediately knew that if he did hold the rebs in place, they would go right to the ridges and force a blood defense there. That time the Union got to the ridges first. As for WW I, the Prussian army had observers in the US during the Civil War. They learned a great deal about using railroads to move massive amounts of troops quickly. And they learned how accurate and fast weapons fire had changed infantry tactics. The French - they fell back on Napoleon. Now look what you gone and made me do. Can't stop once I get started.
Gen. Longstreet was very prescient predicting the rise of trench war and the dominance of defensive tactics and weapons over offensive ones at that time. He repeatedly urged Lee to fight a WW1 style trench war of attrition against the Union instead of a Napoleonic war of maneuver. Fortunately for the USA, he was not the main guy in charge, or the war would have been much bloodier and would likely have ended in a negotiated peace and surviving confederacy rather than a united nation
This scene was heartbreaking
1:38 that escalated quickly
Very underrated movie. An absolutely brutal depiction of war, and the struggle of true people fighting for true liberty. It's one of my personal favorites.
Some damn good acting.
1862 when this movie is depicted race forward and after all those wars....man still is at it today....😞
We are a stupid animal, humans killing humans will never stop.
Imagine fighting in a war and helping a young kid out. Then suddenly, he gets shot and he ends up dying. Very sad scene! It must have been very hard for the Protagonist, since he cared deeply about that kid. This scene moved me to tears 😢😢
If memory serves me correctly in the movie its his nephew

Amazing scene
Heart wrenching😢😢😢
The field hospital.....brutal.
2:39 sheath still attached to his bayonet
Probably a safety issue they had during that scene.
Must have not seen it post edit.
Just goes to show, trench warfare was a thing before WWI. What this movie also shows is that the Civil War, like most other wars, are fought by the young. IIRC, most Civil War movies take advantage of reenactors who already have the kit but many if not most of them are middle aged. Wars are fought by the young... too young.
Matthew did a great job playing this role. What an actor.
So clean.
My God, those wars were blood baths. Any time some one is wounded mortally and they ask for water, that usually means its game over.
Una escena épica !!!!!!! 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
great acting
Dang, that wound I'm very confident I or any one of the Marines in my platoon could have patched up and almost certainly survived. Very grateful medical knowledge and training for troops has come a long way.
Great film, how sad
Buen video muestra lo horrible que es una guerra civil
Most of the time, you see movies about the CW, it is from the plantation owners view. North and South, GWTW. A few The Blue and the Gray are in the middle. But this along with Cold Mtn, is how a lot of people felt. I can see a kid getting killed like this, because he is innocent in a violent environment. I really like how they hit on how high the desertion rates were in the south. Especially when most people figured out they didn't have a dog in this fight or there was no way the south could win. Another thing is how worse the CSA government was than the Federal government
Your a fool you should don’t know history
@@Markbeb3 I love you lost cause crowd. We fought for states rights. LMAO. Try reading what all 11 states said when they seceded. It was to protect slavery. The DOC and SOCV have kept this lost cause alive forever. They could have ended the war in Jan 65, it was really over. They choice not to because they could not stop the 13 amendment
The union soldiers weren't any better. A lot of them created southern resistance when the openly looted the very towns they were "liberating"
I saw this movie in the theater. I sensed a strong anti-Democratic party vibe in this film. Especially during the second half.
I teard up looking at this
I have an ancestor that fought in a Louisiana unit in the Civil War.
The historical significance of this story cannot be understated.
If a person has ever almost bled to death , they know this kind of thirst .

The killing of my great -great-great grandfather, B.J. Rushton is on page 448 of the book. There was a lot of conflict in Jones County at that time.
Rich man’s war, poor man’s fight. They even say it in the movie. Also it gets overlooked how the trench warfare that was used so heavily in WW1 was tried out in the US Civil War

I just snub me toe..a Minnie ball to the stomach wouldn't be a good day out
Mathew is carrying the wrong bayonet for his Mississippi rifle.
I could not imagine having to fight back then. It so far removed from how war is fought now. The sad thing is wars are still started by rich powerful ppl and the poor and lower middle class are the ones that do the fighting.
How do you imagine wars are fought today?
@@STho205 I’m talking about how both side of troops would literally just march right up to each other in a line. I’m talking about how they fought their battles that I couldn’t imagine fighting back then, not the politics side.
@@user-rq3sw8sj5n what do you imagine combat is like today. Jets with antipersonnel rockets that can hit from miles out, helicopter gun platforms, light infantry exposed in terrain protecting a truck, computer guided hits, automatic weapons fire accurate at 2000yds or better with laser scopes, incendiary fire (burn to death), multihead exploding shell artillery fired many miles away you can't even see....
The typical infantry rifleman in 1862 hit about one target in 100 shots...and it took him 8 minutes in fastest time to only deliver 24 shots. Most men died of artillery shell.
Everything is relative. At one time you had to engage close enough to be cleaved by a sword or have your brains bashed in with a spiked hammer...imagine that as the hammer is swinging to your forehead.
Movies and video games aren't real. Combat is.
No matter how it’s fought, people die.
@@STho205dude wtf are u on about? The guy said warfare has changed alot since this time period, what are you trying to argue?
A lot of people who never owned slaves died defending slavery.
This was not like Confederate tactics at all. It was the Union generally making suicidal charges over and over and over again until sheer amount of human beings killed would overcome the Confederate shortage of ammo and artillery.
The most realistic and deep sad scene on screen evee
The sound of the wind blowing through the trees so calm ,an the Undeniable reality that. Someone is leaving this place ,all because something stupid that he didn't have any place being in ,Make you question the Reality of this place,time plain ,why are we here what's the reason ?
By this point in the war it was pure survival. No more honor, or glory. Just brutal kill or be killed.

They were trying to desert.
@@oTecxwere they really?
What a sad and tragic period of history.
That will keep repeating.
What a great movie, actor, etc. But they made it into a ww1. Even later wars, before ww1, werent so crazy as in trenches, shelling, charges, accurate fire.
By 1864 Trench Warfare was a way of life. Lee in a way invented it. Each confederate soldier was issues a shovel with each rifle. English and German observers didn't realize this was also on store of Old Europe 50 years later. Especially the slaughter of cold harbor which was a mini Verdun. And only the lack of machine guns i.e Gaitling guns, prevented the Confederacy to create an endless stalemate. Which was lucky for the Union...
Trench warfare is way older. They had several wars between the Christians and Ottoman Muslims where trench warfare, mining, (after gunpowder was invented and used) exploding trenches and saps, that tactic is ancient, bud.
It stopped for awhile, but was brought back to infamy with the civil war.
@@emperorconstantine1.361
Was used in a siege of the revolutionary war I think Yorktown
@@emperorconstantine1.361 Actually, the Crimean War 1854 saw extensive use of trenches and rifled muskets. The poor Russian soldiers still had smoothbores, whereas the British, French and Sardinians had rifled.
Yeah. Verdun actually resembles Petersburg and Cold Harbor quite a bit. Actual use, too, of numerous Gatling guns. From Gettysburg onwards the war in the East became quite advanced. Western theater had mounted infantry that had the Spencer carbines though.
@@BurntPlaydoh Exactly. A bit of a real stretchy statement.
Why doesn't McConaughey's character reload his rifle after shooting at 1:35?
Cause he read the next page of the script and realized he was about to toss his musket away to carry the injured boy.
@@STho205 That's the only explanation I can think of as well.
When rick grimes fight in the civilwar
This is why religion exists, is to comfort those about to die, to make sense of what happens to you in the afterlife. I don’t care what you say about religion, I’ve heard soooo many stories from veterans about when their buddy was dying who didn’t believe in anything-all of a sudden they believed right before they died. Christ is king! The not so secret is to believe before right about before you die, this will make your life better- all religion does is offer peace and acceptance, and a good meaning to life- to treat others well, only good things!
only Christ is good, all good and perfect gifts come from God...Good *and* *perfect*
Crazy war, so many men killed
Why was Daniel thirsty?
This was one of those scenes that stuck with you after this movie. Shows how pointless that war was.
Why didn’t he reload his rifle after he shot it?
Why doctor not helped damaged Lung boy??? He died!!
War - perhaps the worst idea of human kind. “We disagree over stuff. Let’s kill each other about it until one of us gives up!” 100% total waste.
Can someone explain to me why they ran across to the other trench ?? Please.
No detailed reason Other than to show you only an experienced soldier should be in the trenches
I believe cause it ran along to a tree line or escape route from the battlefield
The main guy and the boy were clearly trying to improvise a way to desert through or near enemy lines. Because I'm guessing deserting through friendly confederate lines was tried thousands of times by other men and they know better than to go that way.
I think it's terrible how little the men care about their comrades, you just keep walking when someone gets shot. The soldiers were emotionally numb and death was commonplace. All in the name of honor. A rich man's war and a poor man's fight.
If you stop to help then you're a sitting duck that can't do anything to help the attack (which would help the wounded by removing the enemy and allowing others to help). Pressing on was the sanest thing to do.
Was that his son?
No that’s his nephew
Never mind the slavery bs in the comments. What if that was your nephew dying in your arms?
Slavery was the reason this young fellow and so many like him died.
Several States gave detailed explanations as ti why they seceded, and they all mention slavery as a prime motivation.

+Jacob Schmidt to black people theyre nazis
This type of battlefield combat was applied from the 18th century up to WW1, and it was ridiculously inefficient. Just standing there and drop like teeth. The party with the most men would win. Oh and if you happen to not die but only get severely injured you were just left there to rot alive.

Why did the sharpshooter want to shoot the kids instead of the squad that charged out from the trenches
The kid didn't know what he was doing and made himself a real tempting target. These sharpshooters have been taking snapshots at people sprinting from cover to cover and suddenly there's a big human-shaped silhouette poking out of a trench and staying still.
Probably thought he was an officer just standing there "leading from behind".
trench warfare in ACW??? and sturming trenches with bunch of men? really...
trenches in the civil war 😱😱🤯🤯🤯but those were invented in ww1!?1!!?1!😱😱😱😱😱😱
@@HewildinFRFR I'm not sure how early in the war it happened, but they were pioneering tactics that would be used in WW1 by the end. Including trenches
Imagine if the Civil War was fought with more trench warfare like World War I.
Trench warfare happened during the Civil War too
It was. At Petersburg the Confederates dug over 153 miles, the Union 37. They used old-style mortars, lobbed what is believed about 90,000 mortar shells alone, and plenty of other artillery. Cold Harbor and Petersburg both saw actual use of several dozen Gatling guns, which apparently did good work. Vicksburg a year earlier saw perhaps even more elaborate trenchworks. Early as the beginning of 1862, Lee was called the "King of Spades" by the press for how often he dug in.
@@SStupendous Yes, I know about Gatling Guns and the trenches at Petersburg and Vicksburg. But I’m talking about an alternate Civil War that’s more modern and with more trench warfare. Like, what if the Civil War was fought entirely or mostly with trench warfare? Instead of soldiers marching in rows and firing volleys of musket, soldiers are shooting each other in trenches and charging into no man’s land.
@@gabrielagustinhomas You completely missed what I meant. I even mentioned "early as 1862".... Trench warfare, with extensive and typical use, was used THROUGHOUT the Civil War. Charleston. Shiloh. Franklin. Nashville. Chickamauga. Cold Harbor. Vicksburg. Port Hudson. Chattanooga. Kennesaw Mountain. Fredricksburg, twice. These examples are some of the deadliest and biggest battles across the war, early, mid and late war.
Ken Burns and Shelby Foote stated quite accurately that a typical Civil War battle went something like one side attacking openly, the other dug in and decimating them. Huge casualties on both defender and attacker.
The Civil War WAS fought with plenty of trench warfare, pretty commonly fought with it to be honest. All you need to do is really look at the details of most battles and you'll see that is true.
@@SStupendous No, I’m JUST talking about an alternate history scenario. A scenario where trenches are used ALL throughout the front line, not just around a few cities.
Im confused didn't the Union Soldier's wear blue uniforms
Yeah, you can see him shoot one around the 1:35 mark. This is a movie told from the POV of a confederate medic

and you should stop to be so rude. i know that they had limited surgeons and that a lot of people dying there. i just ask these questions because i didn't get it because he said that he was something like doctor. you don't have to be so rude.

@@aphroditepapapetrou814 who are you answering to!?
@@aslan9334 Comment was deleted
The short answer is there were so many wounded men that they couldn’t take in another. Despite how morally dark it is, the surgeons decided that they should save the officers that they already have instead of work on a ranker, despite his young age.
another question why did they draft such a untrained and young kid to war?
South was becoming desperate. Towards the end of the war they were terribly low on logistics and munitions not to mention willing volunteers. Like every losing side of a war, they needed bodies.
It’s a common thing when a side is losing a war. They need bodies so eventually as the war rages it goes from 18 year olds to 16 year olds to 15 year olds to 14 year olds cause desperation sets in. Many losing sides in wars have turned to similar methods
