A Few Good Men

 A Few Good Men

"A Few Good Men" a film starring Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson and
Demi Moore, tells the story of a court case following the
accidental death in the late 1980's of a Guantanamo Bay marine
when an unauthorised punishment goes wrong.  This was long before
the place became a prison for suspected terrorists.  It got a few
Oscar nominations including one for Nicholson's performance as the
commanding officer.  The court scenes are interesting.  Tom Cruise
plays his usual apparently shallow but really sincere persona.  
Demi Moore adds little to it.  There are two remarkable things
about the film.  The first is the display of military precision in
the parade ground during the credits.  The second is the
realisation that if this is how badly the US army might have
treated its own soldiers at Guantanamo Bay, almost any allegations
made by the prisoners who are now there become credible.
