Gettysburg and Killer Angels
The movie stayed with the book, but the battle scenes lent themselves to the visuals and sounds a movie provides.
Effects like the sounds of the cannons prior to Pickets charge provide a lot more emotion than a passage in a book could.
The book and movie compliment each other. The book lets you catch events and details that either don't fit in a film or pass too quickly to notice without looking for them. The movie shows action more intensly than the book can.
Gods and Generals was unable to match its book, due to the scope the book covered.
