. As others have said, the uniforms and guns and things like that were very realistic. Which is a nice touch. Probably had reenactors. And very good ones. But I'm going to really nitpick it a couple of parts.
Number one, they shoot an escaping Union soldier. Now right then and there instead of just marching off. They would have gone and picked up the body and buried it cuz that's what they usually did. Ask the reenactors they know all about the history.
Unrealistic moment number two, they get into a situation where they get caught by a single owner. Who's coming to get back his slave. However they knock him down. And this is my big pet peeve. They leave the gun. Now if two Union Soldiers had knocked down a guy the first thing they would have done is pick up that spare rifle.
I will say some of the filming is absolutely beautiful.
