Movie about Gettysburg address

The other two options are primary sources, while the movie was not made at that time.

The Gettysburg Address movie would be a secondary source, as it wasn't made at the time of the conflict.

A primary source, is produced by witnesses of the event, usually at the time of the event, in this case, the Battle of Gettysburg.

Soldiers' personal letters would be considered a primary source, as they were written by them at the time, talking about the event.
