The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial

Barney Greenwald, a skeptical lawyer, reluctantly defends an officer of the navy who took control of the Caine from its captain, Lt. Philip Francis Queeg, while caught in a violent sea storm. As the court-martial proceeds, however, Greenwald increasingly questions if it was truly a mutiny or rather the courageous acts of a group of sailors who could not trust their unstable leader.

    FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/the-caine-mutiny-court-martial-venice-film-festival-review-a-satisfying-farewell-to-william-friedkin/ "The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial might not be the greatest farewell for William Friedkin, but the one-location court session is one of the purest forms of cinema, boasting satisfying levels of tension as well as quick, intense dialogue elevated by exceptional performances from the entire cast, namely Kiefer Sutherland. A viewing that flies by, despite the repetitive, predictably ambiguous structure that doesn't always fit into the study of the dichotomy between "good" and "evil". Still, it remains captivating from start to finish." Rating: B-

    A master filmmaker makes his last film a riveting watch filled with great performances. Lance Reddick does more with his eyes than most actors can with their whole body. I hate the poster though. Keifer's earrings are too big.

Jake Huard, from a shipbuilders family, promised his dying mother he'ld make it to Anapolis Naval Academy. Thanks to tenaciously bugging a Congressman, he's selected despite dubious grades. Once inside, Jake soon proves sub-standard academically. Constantly challenged to his limits, repeatedly made the 'over-cocky' reason for the entire class to suffer, Jake nearly quits, but after facing his utterly un-supportive father's gloating returns just in time. Stubborn Jake finds support withs mates as well as Senor Ali, his lover-to-be, and a discipline he may excel in: the 'brigade' boxing tournament, open to all ranks.
