2013 marks the 150th anniversary of the Civil War and The Battle of Gettysburg, and there is no better way to celebrate this momentous occasion than by seeing the release of the upcoming film Copperhead. The film comes from director Ron Maxwell, known for his other historical films including Gettysburg and Gods and Generals, and stars Billy Campbell as Abner Beech. The young dairy farmer lives in upstate New York, hates the idea of slavery and dislikes war just as much, but no one living in the United States remains untouched by the Civil War for long, so Abner joins up with the Copperheads to oppose the war that is tearing the country apart.
