Best Cinematic Portrayal of General Robert E. Lee

[Frodo]

Which of these two actors do you think best portrays Robert E. Lee, based on these two movie clips?

Martin Sheen from 'Gettysburg'

or

Robert Duvall from 'Gods and Generals'

I've always been more partial to Martin Sheen's Lee. I just watched Gods and Generals a few days ago, it's good but not as good as Gettysburg. It's the kind of movie that's more for history buffs and those who would romanticize the war; both movies are overly romantic in their portrayal of many of these generals IMO.

They try to take the bitterness out of the war and reframe it in a more nostalgic light. Especially with figures like Lee. These films are enjoyable but probably not that accurate when you get down to the details of personality and such.

The Robert E Lee in this.

Gettysburg is a superior movie and Sheen is superior to Duvall as Lee.
