      Highlights Military Trial Session

      Personally, I think that the highlight of this drama is the military trial, with love as some embellishments in the middle (the "love" tag is searched on Youku).

      The audience should psychologically defend Mark, who made an emergency response in the typhoon situation. The sign of the whole film is that the paranoia shown by the captain during a year of work has caused the crew to complain. Especially for whoever stole strawberries, must find a key that doesn't exist (judging based on...

      More than four stars, slightly less than three stars

      Four stars a little more, three stars a little less. Score: Three and a half stars This film is excellent because it can be regarded as a case in many industries, it can be regarded as a management case, it can be regarded as an analysis of psychiatric cases, it can also be regarded as a teaching demonstration of court debate, and it can also be regarded as a teaching demonstration. A socio-ethical film that properly shows so much in a short period of time is rarely seen in other films....

      A classic navy movie, but with so much more than two hours

      Just like the introduction, it left a lot of inside information. The explanation in the movie is far from satisfying my doubts. As a legal practitioner, why does a lawyer accuse the writer like a sentence, instead of giving the opponent a full opportunity to defend, which is not in line with the spirit of the law. Why do lawyers drink, because they are emboldened or guilty for what they have done, and why officers are wary when they see lawyers. The biggest question is what is the...

      Same content, two stories

      I have never experienced such a movie-watching experience: I watched two versions of the same drama starring actors, and then I watched a movie with the same story as the theme, and the narrative style of the movie and the drama was completely different, making the same content to watch. Seems like two different stories. But after watching it, I have to say that I still prefer a more dramatic way of telling, and those flashbacks are simply magical.
      I checked the Internet and it seems that...

      Three-and-a-half-stars, the ship is full of lunatic... Even though I haven't read the original, I still don't think it's a successful adaptation. The foreshadowing is too long, some unnecessary branches can be cut off, the narrative is relatively flat, and when the story reaches the climax, the climax and ups and downs cannot be felt. No one is right or wrong, anyway, life on board is really boring, and it is not surprising that people's spirits have problems in this...

      As the saying goes, the third-rate is hygienic, hhhhh cool performances are amazing, and the paranoid state of the gods is very real, the monologue of the courtroom is exploded, and the infectious power is too strong, I really see my anger I got smoke in my head... In order for several protagonists to get involved in the scene, the first part was a little procrastinated, but the whole is still good. In fact, Craig is also quite pitiful. Paranoia is the damage caused by the war. In short, it is...

      A play consisting of 4-5 people. . . Playing a woman is still a supporting role. . I don't understand what's going on with the screenwriter of this film.... The appearance time of several characters is also very average... If all the female scenes are cut out, this film will be a drama I don't hate... Humphrey's performance is really not good Speaking...

    Movie plot

    The film tells the story of an army captain's court-martial hearing. Strictly speaking, this is a real mutiny. According to military regulations, "in special circumstances, the captain's command can be lifted without the approval of the superior." When the warship En was in danger of sinking due to the wrong command of Captain Craig, his loyal deputy Mark took over the warship immediately, and Mark and his colleagues who supported him...

    Behind the scenes gags

    In order to present the thrilling picture in the typhoon scene, the creator of the film originally wanted to drive the boat into a real storm, but later decided to do it with special effects.
    Richard Widmark was eager to get the role of Captain Craig, but Stanley Kramer chose Humphrey Bogart , who was a troubled signing because Columbia Pictures was reluctant to pay a high salary.
    Humphrey Bogart , a Navy veteran who fought in World War...

    • Lt. Keith: [eagerly] Sir, I spotted a lot of Japanese aircraft, broad of the starboard bow! Position angle 20!

      Captain DeVriess: Angle 20.

      Lt. Keith: Do you see 'em, Captain?

      Captain DeVriess: [disgustedly] If the war lasts 10 years, Keith, you may learn to tell the difference between aircraft and seagulls.

    • Lt. Keith: I made a mistake, but I don't see why I should be singled out for it. Everyone's goofed off around here. The Caine's a slack ship. The men act like a pack of cutthroats and the decks look like a Singapore junk.

      Captain DeVriess: I take it then you must also strongly disapprove of me.

      [Keith hesitates]

      Captain DeVriess: Go ahead, Keith, man to man.

      Lt. Keith: Sir, I'm in no position to approve or disapprove. I only know my conception of a captain seems different from your own.

      Captain DeVriess: I'll take it under advisement. Since you feel so bitter, perhaps what's in the dispatch will brighten your day. As you can see, Keith, I'm being relieved of command. Next week this time, you'll have yourself a new captain: Lt. Cmdr. Philip Francis Queeg. Feel better?

      Lt. Keith: Definitely, sir!
