Glory: Private Trip and Shaw fall (HD CLIP)

What’s happening in this Glory movie clip?
The 54th leads the charge on the fort, suffering serious losses. As night falls, the regiment is pinned down against the walls of the fort. Attempting to encourage his men forward, Shaw is killed by numerous gunshots. Trip, despite his previous assertion that he would not do it, lifts the flag to rally the soldiers to continue, but he too is soon shot dead. Forbes and Rawlins take charge, and the soldiers break through the fort's defenses.

What’s the Glory movie about?
After the Battle of Antietam, Colonel Robert Gould Shaw (Matthew Broderick of Godzilla and The Cable Guy) is offered command of the first all-African-American regiment in the United States, the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry. Along with junior officer Cabot Forbes (Cary Elwes of Saw and Princess Bride), Shaw forms a strong and proud unit, including the escaped slave Trip (Denzel Washington of The Equalizer and American Gangster) and the wise gravedigger John Rawlins (Morgan Freeman of The Dark Knight and Million Dollar Baby). Initially limited to little manual tasks, the regiment tries hard to be placed in the heat of the moment.

If you look at 4:22 when Thomas grabbed that Confederate soldier's gun and turned it on him, its the same move the Irish drill Sergeant did on him early in the film. He taught him how to fight.

[malirstar]

I love the little detail of Shaw drawing his revolver and blowing off any sand or debris that might’ve gotten caught in the action

[cameroncunningham]

This scene gives a good example of the level of loyalty a commander can have from his men…when you are willing to go through Hell for and with your men, If you fall at the hands of your enemies then your men will not stop until the enemy no longer exists

[ConstantineJoseph]

The final scene before the enfilade point blank fire from artillery cannons, is like an art portrait but filmed in live action. What a masterpiece

[OrbGoblin]

Every time Trip grabs that flag, I just lose it. It's such a beautiful character arc, it's just really amazing to see that character grow.

[rashidahmad]

My thoughts turned to Andre Braugher as I watched the videos. He was young then and played the role of Thomas very well, especially during the assault when he came into his own as a fighting man. RIP Andre. I enjoyed your acting over the years. Your voice was magnificent.

[Sweetnessusne]

How was the original score of this film not even nominated for an Oscar? My God, I've seen Glory several times and just watching this clip I get a lump in my throat as the music as much as any visual stirs the emotions.

[Chris-fndf]

The character arcs of Tripp, Forbes, and Thomas are enough to make this an all-time favorite. The acting of nearly every character is phenomenal. The cinematography is brilliant. The music is excellent... truly one of the finest films ever made.

[morpheusspirit]

This film encapsulates the true essence of a great commander. When Shaw decided to rush the guns with just his pistol and the flag, he obviously knew that he was going to be killed. But it was all about rallying and inspiring his men onto greatness and glory. All his soldiers when silent when they say that he had been killed, but then ‘the rebel’ picks up the flag and leads the charge forward!! Commander Shaw had done his job.

[scottramsey]

After over 30 years ago released this film is still one of the best war movies, let alone best movies, ever made. The casting was perfect and James Horner's music is unmatched.

The Union soldier that says "Give 'em hell, 54th" is the screenwriter of "Glory" Kevin Jarre.

[larryd]

When Tripp yells "COME ON!" is what legends are made of...
Even though the attack ultimately did not succeed, the 54th showed their mettle
These actions would eventually carry the day and preserve the Union.

[thekansasjayhawk]

The love these men had for their colonel (Shaw) was inspiring.

[orion]

This is my favorite scene of the entire movie. I can only imagine how the real men of the 54th felt. Of all the soldiers in the Union army, they had the biggest score to settle.

[PeterOkeefe]

General Strong regretted not sending further waves behind the 54th. At night he could not see that they had penetrated battery Wagner. He led a charge the next day with survivors of the 54th and vermont troops and was killed in the assault. Battery Wagner never fell

[poecastillo]

One of the greatest battle scenes ever filmed.

[jasonmariani]

When Denzel picked up the flag I got MAJOR CHILLS up and down my back and neck. That meant more to me than any act of patriotism or pride or bravery. He showed he was willing to set aside his distain for color barriers or principles that are wrong….. that’s a true American. This movie needs to be re-released in 2024.

[realrobh]

I am a Black American and a Veteran, and despite the historical troubles in our nation amongst different races and cultures, even while knowing the significance of the Civil War and my strong appreciation for it, to see the bloodshed between Americans in this horrible conflict hurts me so much.

[flankspeed]

One thing I love about this scene, often missed: Tripp falls alright, but as he dies, he plants the flag in such a way that it stands. I'm a Brit, not American, but that gives ME passion.
Keep that pride, USA: as long as it's for truth and justice, you'll have friends in all corners.

[JakvsMetalheads]

3:02 That look of absolute determination on Trip's face right after he's shot has always stuck with me
