Emmy Award-Winning Documentary ‘The Battle of Franklin’ Screening | The Franklin Theatre

Remembering the 160th anniversary of The Battle of Franklin, the Franklin Theatre will present a rare large-screen viewing of Robert Lee Hodge’s Emmy-award winning documentary The Battle of Franklin on back-to-back nights – Friday, November 29th, and Saturday, November 30th — 160th anniversary of the battle! Both showings at 8 pm.

Shown on PBS, The Battle of Franklin film has gotten many accolades from the experts — Chief Historian Emeritus of the National Park Service, Ed Bearss, said, “One of the best, if not the best, documentaries I have seen on a Civil War battle. Not since Ken Burns’ monumental PBS production, The Civil War, have I seen better. . . Hodge’s film is a great primer to understand the Battle of Franklin.”
