Plot / General treatment
The plot synopsis doesn't include the actors' names, and basically omits George Clyde and Daniel Holt who form a major sub-plot in the film. As well, the film does not present a "loose" version of the Lawrence massacre, it is pretty darned accurate, and matches the Wikipedia description of the event pretty well. As well, the synopsis should make it clear that the raiders held their belief that jail collapse was somehow negligent as a belief, rather than as a fact. Somebody has also been through and added a whole bunch of Quantrill hagiography, which I have deleted. It has nothing to do with the film. Theonemacduff (talk) 05:49, 20 October 2018 (UTC)

Anderson? Who?
From the plot section:

"At the same time, Anderson and many other Bushwhackers have been killed, taken prisoner or otherwise rendered inactive."

I assume "Anderson" refers to William T. Anderson, but the section hasn't introduced him as a character in the film, or otherwise referred to him in any way. WP Ludicer (talk) 18:48, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

Why they say in this film "dutch" to him, an not "German," "Deutscher" oder "Kraut," if he is German?
A "Dutch" meens someone or something from the Netherland. ??? 81.20.127.1 (talk) 02:33, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

 * In America in the 1800s the Germans were called "Dutch." Topcat777 (talk) 21:13, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Correct. And even today, as in "Pennsylvania Dutch" ... 98.115.255.240 (talk) 04:05, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
