After a prolonged hiatus The Historian's Movie Review is back!

In this week's episode I talk about the TV miniseries Andersonville. Topics discussed include the real Colonel Wirtz, the trial and execution of prisoners at Andersonville, and how Tom Wilson is my favorite actor.

This week's episode is brought to you by Audible. You can support the show, and get a 30-day ree trial by using the link audibletrial.com/hmr.
