Nominated for 7 Academy Awards®, this "stunning" (NEWSWEEK) wartime romantic drama directed by Anthony Minghella (THE ENGLISH PATIENT) stars heavy hitters Nicole Kidman, Renée Zellweger, Jude Law, Donald Sutherland, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Natalie Portman. At the dawn of the Civil War, the men of Cold Mountain, North Carolina, rush to join the Confederate Army. Ada (Kidman) has vowed to wait for Inman (Law), but as the war drags on and letters go unanswered, she must find the will to survive. At war's end, hearts will be dashed, dreams fulfilled and the strength of the human spirit tested, but not broken.
