No Drums, No Bugles
1972, English. Directed by Clyde Ware.
A great Civil War legend comes to the screen!
During the Civil War, a conscientious objector is forced to flee to the woods of West Virginia to avoid being sent into combat where he would be forced to kill, which he is adamantly against. He sets up shelter in a cave and is warily accepted by his new "neighbors"--the animals who live in the vicinity.
