RE: Can You Spot the Historical Inaccuracies?
Yes - correct, Bill!

Lew told Rath as he was hooded, "I thank you - goodbye."

Atzerodt started to speak as he was hooded, "Goodbye gentlemen who are before me now. May we all meet in the other world."

The characters in the film remain silent except for a few sniffles and sobs....

Also, in the movie, Davey appears to be blubbering his head off on the scaffold. I think he was fairly quiet on the scaffold.

Great about the "Behind the Scenes" bits regarding the movie. I'd like to hear more of those - they are extremely interesting. I've always regretted that the movie wasn't shot in Richmond. I'd have loved to have worked on that one! Redford DID come to Richmond, but the gubernatorial administration at the time wasn't supportive of shooting film in Virginia with the necessary financial "perks" so Redford went "shopping" elsewhere.

OK .... So much for levity -

It's one of the silliest things I've ever seen!
