DVD Explores What if the South Had Won the Civil War? If you’ve ever wondered what the course America history might
have taken if the South had won the Civil War, you might like to
check out CSA: The Confederate States of America. Written and directed
by Kevin Willmott, this tongue-in-cheek mockumentary unfolds much
like a Ken Burns PBS production. Willmott has cleverly spliced reams
of authentic historical footage with some inspired staged fabrications,
editing them together seamlessly to present a country where slavery
never ended. The film also contains present-day commercials in order
to convey the sense that one is actually watching television. |
