If I recall correctly, TNT is showing the hour-long special at 8:00 and
11:05 p.m. on Thursday (EDT--check your local listings), and then once
or twice more this month. I'm fairly sure the 8:00 time is right, but
you should probably check.
I agree that reenactors are often poor as actors, but I'm under the
impression that reenactors are only used in the battle scenes, and not
for any significant characters. At least, I hope that's the case. And
as far as the accuracy goes, while I most certainly will reserve final
judgement until after I see the film, I recall reading last summer that
some of the reenactors and historical consultants were upset at TNT for
a few glaring historical errors and insisted on changes. I believe
the filmmakers were willing to make those changes so as to improve
their accuracy. I guess we'll be able to find out soon enough!
