I teach 6th grade in a Christian school. We study the history of the Western Hemisphere which thankfully, permits me to teach American history. We read Johnny Tremain and Rifles for Watie. My students were able to read Johnny Tremain and then watch the movie. They learned to write a compare/contrast paper, etc. I have looked for a movie to watch when we are done with Rifles for Watie - NONE! Please make one! Please make this wonderful book into a movie.

I am currently reading "Rifles For Watie" for somewhere in the 5-7th time, in the process of scripting it for the screen. It is an idea I had the first time I read the novel, probably close to 10 years ago now, and now I feel with the right further research, I am ready to script it. I am looking for some help from those who have a similar passion for making the "right" Civil War Film.... I just came across this website – ironic.
