00:00:15,724 --> 00:00:18,431
This logo music was composed
by Marc Shaiman...

2
00:00:18,685 --> 00:00:20,971
...who I've worked with
many, many times.

3
00:00:21,230 --> 00:00:24,563
This was actually an early version
done on a synthesizer.

4
00:00:24,775 --> 00:00:28,233
We since have rerecorded it
with a live orchestra.

5
00:00:39,081 --> 00:00:43,575
These shots here are supposed to
simulate Guantanamo Bay, Cuba...

6
00:00:43,794 --> 00:00:46,080
...where part of the movie
takes place.

7
00:00:46,296 --> 00:00:49,129
And I actually was able
to go down to Cuba...

8
00:00:49,424 --> 00:00:51,961
...and visit the base
down in Guantanamo Bay.

9
00:00:52,261 --> 00:00:56,846
And this is very, very close
to what it looks like.

10
00:00:57,140 --> 00:01:00,007
This was shot down south...

11
00:01:00,310 --> 00:01:03,848
...in the Laguna area...

12
00:01:04,147 --> 00:01:06,934
...but it's very, very similar...

13
00:01:07,150 --> 00:01:11,268
...to what we saw down in,
as they say, Gitmo.

14
00:01:45,522 --> 00:01:49,515
And here we see the Code Red
being performed.

15
00:01:49,818 --> 00:01:53,857
This is actually something
that used to go down at Gitmo.

16
00:01:54,072 --> 00:01:56,984
This kind of stuff
actually used to happen.

17
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,534
And this whole story,
A Few Good Men...

18
00:02:01,705 --> 00:02:04,697
...was basically inspired
by an actual case...

19
00:02:04,916 --> 00:02:07,373
...that writer
Aaron Sorkin's sister...

20
00:02:07,669 --> 00:02:09,785
...was a lawyer in the Jag corps...

21
00:02:10,047 --> 00:02:14,666
...and she was involved in a case
that this whole movie is based on.

22
00:02:32,736 --> 00:02:37,730
The movie's shot by Robert Richardson,
who's worked a lot with Oliver Stone...

23
00:02:37,949 --> 00:02:41,942
...and has done some great work
with Martin Scorsese as well.

24
00:02:42,245 --> 00:02:44,406
He's a brilliant cinematographer...

25
00:02:44,623 --> 00:02:49,458
...and I think it's one of the
best-looking pictures I've done.

26
00:02:49,711 --> 00:02:52,077
Now what you're about to see...

27
00:02:52,381 --> 00:02:56,624
...is the rifle drill team from
the University of North Carolina.

28
00:02:58,345 --> 00:03:02,634
I think it was the University of North
Carolina. One of the colleges.

29
00:03:02,933 --> 00:03:07,597
We actually had some cooperation
with the military, not a lot.

30
00:03:08,105 --> 00:03:12,644
At this point in the film they had not
decided to give us cooperation...

31
00:03:12,943 --> 00:03:16,982
...to film the actual rifle drill team
of the Marine Corps.

32
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,989
So this is a bunch
of college students...

33
00:03:21,284 --> 00:03:25,948
...who are pretty darn good, but
they're not the actual Marine Corps.

34
00:03:39,136 --> 00:03:42,253
I love the opening of this film...

35
00:03:42,472 --> 00:03:45,635
...with this drill team because--

36
00:03:45,892 --> 00:03:49,134
It's just wonderful
because it has this kind of...

37
00:03:49,396 --> 00:03:53,981
...fabulous precision where everything
is so spit and polished and precise.

38
00:03:55,986 --> 00:03:58,193
And it belies all of the mess...

39
00:03:58,488 --> 00:04:01,776
...that's about to unfold...

40
00:04:01,992 --> 00:04:04,779
...with respect to the code red...

41
00:04:04,995 --> 00:04:08,908
...and all the problems with
military justice and what happens.

42
00:04:17,799 --> 00:04:21,212
Aaron Sorkin, who wrote the play,
also wrote the screenplay...

43
00:04:21,511 --> 00:04:23,547
...and he's a brilliant writer.

44
00:04:23,847 --> 00:04:27,715
Actually, I saw it on Broadway
and it...

45
00:04:28,018 --> 00:04:30,134
...got me to want to do the film.

46
00:04:30,353 --> 00:04:33,720
It not only is a
brilliantly written film...

47
00:04:33,982 --> 00:04:36,689
...but the play
was very, very powerful.

48
00:04:36,985 --> 00:04:39,351
And the core of the story...

49
00:04:39,571 --> 00:04:42,529
...which is, to me,
a father and son story...

50
00:04:42,741 --> 00:04:46,575
...is what motivated me
to wanting to do the film.

51
00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:50,033
Here's Demi Moore. And, like I say...

52
00:04:50,248 --> 00:04:54,036
...it's interesting because
out of this very precise drill team...

53
00:04:54,336 --> 00:04:57,749
...you see this woman come out
and she's about to take us...

54
00:04:58,048 --> 00:05:02,257
...into the story and the mess that's
going on inside the Marine Corps.

55
00:05:02,719 --> 00:05:05,381
Captain West is expecting you.

56
00:05:09,559 --> 00:05:12,722
Jo, come on in.

57
00:05:13,021 --> 00:05:17,731
Lt. Commander Galloway.
You know Commander Lawrence?

58
00:05:18,026 --> 00:05:21,109
-I appreciate you seeing me.
-Will you sit down?

59
00:05:21,404 --> 00:05:23,736
-I'm fine, sir.
-Have a seat!

60
00:05:25,408 --> 00:05:30,198
-We've had some trouble in Cuba?
-Yes, sir. Last Friday.

61
00:05:30,413 --> 00:05:34,907
Two Marines, a Corporal Dawson
and a Private Downey...

62
00:05:35,085 --> 00:05:39,078
...entered the barracks room of
a Private Santiago and assaulted him.

63
00:05:39,381 --> 00:05:42,748
Santiago died in hospital
an hour later.

64
00:05:43,009 --> 00:05:46,251
Naval Intelligence Service says
the two men...

65
00:05:46,555 --> 00:05:51,595
...wanted to stop Santiago naming
Dawson in a fence line shooting.

66
00:05:51,810 --> 00:05:56,645
-The hearing's at 1600 hours.
-What's the problem?

67
00:05:56,940 --> 00:06:01,934
They're both model Marines.
Santiago was a screw up.

68
00:06:02,237 --> 00:06:06,947
-It sounds like a Code Red.
-Christ!

69
00:06:07,284 --> 00:06:10,776
I'd like to have them
assigned counsel.

70
00:06:11,037 --> 00:06:15,622
Someone who has both
the legal skill...

71
00:06:15,834 --> 00:06:18,621
...and a familiarity
with the military.

72
00:06:18,837 --> 00:06:23,297
I'd like to suggest that
I be the one who that...

73
00:06:23,592 --> 00:06:28,677
...that it be me who is assigned
to represent them, myself.

74
00:06:30,557 --> 00:06:35,142
Demi was really wonderful in the film
and she fought very hard for the part.

75
00:06:35,353 --> 00:06:38,345
She came in and auditioned,
gave a great reading...

76
00:06:38,648 --> 00:06:41,139
...and she's terrific in this film.

77
00:06:47,490 --> 00:06:50,072
I thought Code Reds weren't
going on anymore.

78
00:06:50,327 --> 00:06:53,319
Who knows what goes on
at Guantanamo with the Marines?

79
00:06:53,622 --> 00:06:57,456
We'd better find out before
the rest of the world does.

80
00:06:57,667 --> 00:07:00,158
What about this Commander Galloway?

81
00:07:00,378 --> 00:07:05,463
She's been working a desk at Internal
Affairs for a little over a year.

82
00:07:05,717 --> 00:07:08,459
She disposed of three cases
in two years.

83
00:07:08,678 --> 00:07:11,340
Who's she handling? Rosenbergs?

84
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,722
-She's not a litigator.
-But a hell of an investigator--

85
00:07:14,017 --> 00:07:18,681
In Internal Affairs, sure. She can
crawl up a lawyer's ass with the best.

86
00:07:18,980 --> 00:07:22,848
I know, I know, all passion,
no street smarts. Bring her back in.

87
00:07:28,531 --> 00:07:29,737
Jo.

88
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,487
-We'll have the defendants moved here.
-Thank you, sir.

89
00:07:37,707 --> 00:07:40,164
And I'll have Division
assign them counsel.

90
00:07:41,211 --> 00:07:43,873
But, not me?

91
00:07:44,130 --> 00:07:47,372
You're too valuable to waste...

92
00:07:47,676 --> 00:07:52,136
...on a five-minute plea bargain
and a week's paperwork.

93
00:07:52,389 --> 00:07:55,677
-There might be more involved.
-Don't worry about it.

94
00:07:55,892 --> 00:07:58,759
Division will assign the right man
for the job.

95
00:08:00,397 --> 00:08:03,730
Here's the right man for the job.
Tom Cruise...

96
00:08:04,025 --> 00:08:05,640
...wonderful in this film,
was a joy.

97
00:08:07,445 --> 00:08:12,235
Part of the joy of making
this film was to work with Tom Cruise.

98
00:08:12,450 --> 00:08:15,908
He's an incredible professional.
He's a great actor...

99
00:08:16,162 --> 00:08:18,244
...and he's very funny in this film.

100
00:08:18,456 --> 00:08:21,414
He hadn't gotten
a chance to be funny.

101
00:08:21,668 --> 00:08:25,411
This was an opportunity for him
and he went to school on me...

102
00:08:25,672 --> 00:08:30,712
...and Kevin and whoever else was
around with some comedy experience.

103
00:08:30,969 --> 00:08:36,089
-Do we hang people from yardarms?
-I don't think so.

104
00:08:36,558 --> 00:08:39,675
Sherby doesn't think
we do that anymore.

105
00:08:39,936 --> 00:08:42,973
I'll charge him with being under
the influence on duty.

106
00:08:43,273 --> 00:08:47,312
You plead guilty, I'll recommend
30 days in the brig.

107
00:08:47,610 --> 00:08:52,320
-It was oregano!
-He thought it was marijuana.

108
00:08:52,615 --> 00:08:55,197
He's a moron. That's not illegal.

109
00:08:55,452 --> 00:08:58,615
I got people to answer to.
I'm gonna charge him!

110
00:08:58,830 --> 00:09:00,946
With possession of a condiment?

111
00:09:02,834 --> 00:09:06,122
If you ask for jail time,
I'll file a motion to dismiss.

112
00:09:06,421 --> 00:09:08,286
You won't get it!

113
00:09:08,506 --> 00:09:13,000
I'll file a motion seeking to obtain
an evidentiary ruling in advance...

114
00:09:13,303 --> 00:09:15,760
...then I'll file against
pre-trial confinement.

115
00:09:15,972 --> 00:09:18,258
You'll get three months' paperwork...

116
00:09:18,475 --> 00:09:21,967
...because he smoked
a dime bag of oregano.

117
00:09:24,147 --> 00:09:26,980
This is a wonderful introduction
to a character.

118
00:09:27,275 --> 00:09:30,358
You have a guy who is skating
through life...

119
00:09:30,779 --> 00:09:34,863
...who never has really faced
any kind of significant challenge.

120
00:09:35,158 --> 00:09:38,491
It just establishes the character
in a great way...

121
00:09:38,745 --> 00:09:41,157
...as we see his evolution
through the film.

122
00:09:41,456 --> 00:09:44,323
This is another scene
that further cements...

123
00:09:44,542 --> 00:09:48,455
...this kind of guy
who skates through life.

124
00:09:54,010 --> 00:09:57,502
And there's Kevin Pollack,
who is wonderfully funny...

125
00:09:57,806 --> 00:10:00,673
...and a great dramatic actor as well.

126
00:10:00,975 --> 00:10:05,014
-Thank you, sir.
-This first one's for you.

127
00:10:05,271 --> 00:10:10,186
You're moving up in the world.
Division wants you.

128
00:10:10,401 --> 00:10:14,360
-To do what?
-Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

129
00:10:14,572 --> 00:10:17,279
A Marine Corporal named Dawson
fires a round...

130
00:10:17,534 --> 00:10:20,492
...from his weapon, over the fenceline
and into Cuba.

131
00:10:20,703 --> 00:10:23,365
This is Xander Berkeley,
and what's great...

132
00:10:23,665 --> 00:10:28,534
...is that we had such terrific actors
in all the parts, big and small.

133
00:10:28,795 --> 00:10:31,377
We had really wonderful actors.

134
00:10:34,676 --> 00:10:38,339
Dawson and another member of his
squad, Private Louden Downey...

135
00:10:38,555 --> 00:10:41,672
...go into Santiago's room,
tie him up...

136
00:10:41,891 --> 00:10:44,098
...stuff a rag down his throat...

137
00:10:44,394 --> 00:10:46,225
...an hour later, he's dead.

138
00:10:46,437 --> 00:10:50,055
Attending physician says the rag
was treated with a toxin.

139
00:10:50,358 --> 00:10:52,895
-They poisoned him?
-Not according to them.

140
00:10:53,069 --> 00:10:55,401
-What do they say?
-Not much.

141
00:10:55,697 --> 00:10:58,359
They're being flown up tomorrow.
On Wednesday...

142
00:10:58,575 --> 00:11:02,568
...you'll catch a transport down
to Cuba to find out what you can.

143
00:11:02,871 --> 00:11:06,864
In the meantime, go and see
Lt. Commander JoAnne Galloway.

144
00:11:09,752 --> 00:11:14,917
-Any questions?
-I fly at 0600? In the morning?

145
00:11:16,467 --> 00:11:21,131
We'll go by the book,
so I'm assigning co-counsel.

146
00:11:21,431 --> 00:11:23,763
Any volunteers?

147
00:11:23,933 --> 00:11:27,596
No. I've a stack of papers to do.

148
00:11:27,896 --> 00:11:31,855
-Work with Kaffee.
-For just four days?

149
00:11:32,108 --> 00:11:37,102
Doing various administrative...
things.

150
00:11:37,405 --> 00:11:41,273
In other words, no responsibilities?

151
00:11:41,451 --> 00:11:43,487
My kind of case!

152
00:11:45,496 --> 00:11:49,990
This was supposed to be Jag corps. We
shot it at St. Elizabeth's Hospital...

153
00:11:50,293 --> 00:11:52,284
...in Washington, DC.

154
00:11:55,673 --> 00:11:58,289
-Hi!
-Hold on...Hi!

155
00:11:58,509 --> 00:12:02,627
Daniel Kaffee.
I was told to meet...

156
00:12:08,311 --> 00:12:12,520
...Lieutenant Commander Galloway.

157
00:12:13,483 --> 00:12:17,977
-About a briefing.
-I'II call you back.

158
00:12:19,614 --> 00:12:24,153
-You're the attorney?
-Yes, and this is Sam Weinberg.

159
00:12:24,410 --> 00:12:28,619
-I have no responsibilities.
-Have a seat.

160
00:12:39,175 --> 00:12:44,340
-Have you been in the Navy long?
-Nine months now.

161
00:12:45,014 --> 00:12:50,134
-And when did you graduate?
-A year ago.

162
00:12:50,353 --> 00:12:53,937
-I see.
-Have I done something wrong?

163
00:12:54,232 --> 00:12:59,352
When I asked for counsel,
I hoped to be taken seriously.

164
00:12:59,696 --> 00:13:02,187
No offense taken.

165
00:13:02,532 --> 00:13:06,491
He's our best litigator.

166
00:13:06,703 --> 00:13:09,866
He obtained 44 plea bargains in nine
months.

167
00:13:10,081 --> 00:13:13,824
-Almost got my steak knives.
-Have you ever been in court?

168
00:13:14,210 --> 00:13:15,950
I had my license suspended...

169
00:13:16,212 --> 00:13:20,046
They need a priest, not a lawyer.

170
00:13:20,967 --> 00:13:24,255
No, they'll need a lawyer.

171
00:13:24,554 --> 00:13:29,674
Dawson's family has been contacted.
Downey just has his aunt.

172
00:13:30,226 --> 00:13:32,888
The wonderful thing about
Sorkin's writing...

173
00:13:33,187 --> 00:13:36,270
...is that all the
characters are intelligent.

174
00:13:37,900 --> 00:13:40,357
He has a wonderful way with dialog.

175
00:13:40,570 --> 00:13:43,061
It's a question of who's
more intelligent.

176
00:13:43,281 --> 00:13:46,773
But every character is
interesting and intelligent.

177
00:13:47,076 --> 00:13:51,410
The papers say he's tipped for
the National Security Council.

178
00:13:51,622 --> 00:13:56,742
-Santiago sent these from GITMO.
-That's Guantanamo Bay.

179
00:13:57,420 --> 00:14:02,005
He wrote to all the senior officers,
even his senator.

180
00:14:02,258 --> 00:14:07,378
He wanted a transfer.
No one listened. Are you with me?

181
00:14:08,765 --> 00:14:15,432
Then he offered to trade information
about the shooting for a transfer.

182
00:14:16,773 --> 00:14:19,230
Right. Is that all?

183
00:14:19,442 --> 00:14:23,776
It seems your client had
a motive to kill Santiago.

184
00:14:24,030 --> 00:14:28,740
—Got you! And Santiago is...who?
-The victim.

185
00:14:28,951 --> 00:14:34,116
These letters are not flattering
about Marine Corps life?

186
00:14:34,624 --> 00:14:39,789
And an investigation might
embarrass the Security Council guy?

187
00:14:40,129 --> 00:14:43,963
-Colonel Jessep...
-12 years.

188
00:14:44,133 --> 00:14:48,627
If they drop "conspiracy" and
"conduct unbecoming".

189
00:14:48,930 --> 00:14:53,845
-You haven't done anything yet!
-Impressive, huh?

190
00:14:54,102 --> 00:14:58,471
-You'll have to go deeper.
-Do you have jurisdiction here?

191
00:14:58,689 --> 00:15:03,479
My job is to make sure
you do your job.

192
00:15:03,694 --> 00:15:06,811
So my jurisdiction's in your face.

193
00:15:09,075 --> 00:15:13,569
Read the letters.
Report when you return from Cuba.

194
00:15:13,788 --> 00:15:18,873
-Dismissed!
-I always forget that part.

195
00:15:21,337 --> 00:15:26,457
He's preoccupied.
He has a baseball game next week.

196
00:15:27,009 --> 00:15:31,594
Tell him not to get cute.
Guantanamo Marines are fanatical.

197
00:15:31,848 --> 00:15:35,466
-About what?
-About being Marines.

198
00:15:35,685 --> 00:15:39,018
"My name is PFC William Santiago-

199
00:15:39,522 --> 00:15:42,229
We shot this here in Los Angeles...

200
00:15:42,525 --> 00:15:44,982
...at an abandoned Army barracks.

201
00:15:45,319 --> 00:15:50,404
I am writing to inform you of my
problems here in Cuba.

202
00:15:50,741 --> 00:15:55,861
I've fallen out of runs before,
because of dizziness or nausea.

203
00:15:56,205 --> 00:16:02,371
On May 18th, I'd fallen back about
20 yards going down a rocky hill.

204
00:16:02,670 --> 00:16:09,382
My sergeant pushed me down the hill,
then I saw all black and fell down.

205
00:16:09,635 --> 00:16:12,843
The hospital said
it was heat exhaustion.

206
00:16:13,055 --> 00:16:18,049
I ask your help.
I need a transfer out of RSC.

207
00:16:18,269 --> 00:16:22,638
Sincerely, PFC William T. Santiago,
US Marines. "

208
00:16:22,857 --> 00:16:26,725
"PS: In exchange for my transfer,

209
00:16:27,028 --> 00:16:32,068
I have information about
the shooting on August 2nd. "

210
00:16:33,075 --> 00:16:37,284
Who the fuck is
PFC William T. Santiago?

211
00:16:39,081 --> 00:16:42,414
It's a great introduction to
Nicholson's character, Jessep.

212
00:16:42,668 --> 00:16:44,750
Nicholson's one of the actors...

213
00:16:45,046 --> 00:16:48,038
...who can say the word "fuck"
better than anybody.

214
00:16:48,257 --> 00:16:52,216
Except maybe De Niro. It's pretty
close between the two of them.

215
00:16:59,602 --> 00:17:03,060
That's J.T. Walsh,
who's now no longer with us.

216
00:17:03,272 --> 00:17:05,103
He's a brilliant actor.

217
00:17:05,399 --> 00:17:08,186
Actually, one of the things...

218
00:17:08,444 --> 00:17:12,107
...I talked to Jane Jenkins,
our casting director, about was...

219
00:17:12,323 --> 00:17:15,781
...if we could get everybody
that's as good as J.T. Walsh.

220
00:17:16,077 --> 00:17:19,945
Or as, what I call,
as "unsweaty" an actor as Walsh.

221
00:17:20,248 --> 00:17:24,116
He's the most natural and realistic.
And we were able to do that.

222
00:17:24,335 --> 00:17:28,954
We had Kiefer Sutherland.
He's also brilliant in the film.

223
00:17:29,257 --> 00:17:31,248
But all the parts big and small...

224
00:17:31,467 --> 00:17:36,131
...are cast with actors who,
like I say, are not sweaty actors.

225
00:17:36,347 --> 00:17:40,807
They just work in a very real,
understated way.

226
00:17:41,102 --> 00:17:42,512
He's that bad?

227
00:17:42,812 --> 00:17:48,307
If word of this letter gets out,
he'll get his ass whipped.

228
00:17:48,609 --> 00:17:57,028
Transfer Santiago? You're right.
Yes, that's the thing to do.

229
00:17:58,828 --> 00:18:02,787
Wait! I've got a better idea.

230
00:18:02,999 --> 00:18:06,662
Let's transfer the whole squad.

231
00:18:06,961 --> 00:18:13,173
No, let's transfer
the whole division off the base.

232
00:18:13,467 --> 00:18:18,552
Jon, go and tell the boys
to pack their bags.

233
00:18:18,973 --> 00:18:21,339
Tom!

234
00:18:21,642 --> 00:18:26,762
Get me the President. We're
surrendering our position in Cuba.

235
00:18:27,273 --> 00:18:34,645
Wait a minute, Tom. Maybe we
should consider this for a second.

236
00:18:34,864 --> 00:18:37,981
Dismissed, Tom.

237
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,784
I'm just spit-balling here,

238
00:18:42,038 --> 00:18:46,873
but maybe it's our responsibility
to train Santiago?

239
00:18:47,084 --> 00:18:51,578
Maybe we have a responsibility
to this country to see

240
00:18:51,881 --> 00:18:56,841
that those protecting it
are trained professionals.

241
00:18:57,053 --> 00:19:00,671
I think I read that somewhere once.

242
00:19:00,890 --> 00:19:07,682
And I'm thinking, Colonel, that your
idea of transferring Santiago,

243
00:19:07,897 --> 00:19:11,060
while expeditious and painless,

244
00:19:11,317 --> 00:19:16,402
might not be quite
the American way?

245
00:19:16,822 --> 00:19:21,065
Santiago stays where he is.

246
00:19:21,243 --> 00:19:26,408
We're going to train the lad.
Jon, you're in charge.

247
00:19:26,624 --> 00:19:33,336
If Santiago doesn't get 4.6, 4.6
in his next proficiency report,

248
00:19:33,589 --> 00:19:38,549
I'm going to blame you.
And then I'll kill you.

249
00:19:38,761 --> 00:19:42,470
I think that's a mistake, Colonel.

250
00:19:42,765 --> 00:19:46,883
Matthew, I think
I'll have that word in private now.

251
00:19:47,103 --> 00:19:53,599
That's all. Meet me at the "O" Club.
We'll talk about William's training.

252
00:19:53,859 --> 00:19:58,398
-I'II welcome your suggestions.
-Dismissed.

253
00:20:02,118 --> 00:20:05,281
Matthew, sit down. Please.

254
00:20:10,793 --> 00:20:14,957
-What do you think of Kendrick?
-I don't think my opinion...

255
00:20:15,172 --> 00:20:18,255
I think he's a bit of a weasel.

256
00:20:18,467 --> 00:20:24,758
But he's a very good officer, and
we agree on how to do our job.

257
00:20:24,974 --> 00:20:32,096
Our business is saving lives.
We have to take that seriously.

258
00:20:32,314 --> 00:20:38,981
I believe that if we transfer a
Marine who is not up to the job,

259
00:20:39,196 --> 00:20:45,613
we put lives in danger.
Sit down, Matthew.

260
00:20:53,669 --> 00:21:01,838
We went to the Academy together,
served in Vietnam together.

261
00:21:02,136 --> 00:21:07,927
But I've been promoted with
more speed and success than you.

262
00:21:08,184 --> 00:21:14,145
If that causes you tension or
embarrassment, I don't give a shit.

263
00:21:14,356 --> 00:21:19,521
Our business is saving lives,
Lieutenant Colonel Markinson.

264
00:21:19,737 --> 00:21:25,528
Don't ever question my orders
in front of another officer.

265
00:21:36,337 --> 00:21:41,457
Nicholson is obviously one of the
great actors of all time.

266
00:21:41,717 --> 00:21:45,050
He's in the pantheon
along with Spencer Tracey...

267
00:21:45,346 --> 00:21:48,463
...and Humphrey Bogart
and all the great actors.

268
00:21:48,724 --> 00:21:53,184
One of the things he did for us, was
he set a tone for the other actors...

269
00:21:53,395 --> 00:21:55,602
...a lot of younger actors
in the film...

270
00:21:55,856 --> 00:21:59,895
...that we were coming to work
and do our jobs.

271
00:22:00,194 --> 00:22:03,106
There was a tremendous respect
for the material.

272
00:22:03,364 --> 00:22:05,525
We worked with wonderful material.

273
00:22:07,493 --> 00:22:11,532
And actors don't often get to say
great words like are in this film...

274
00:22:11,747 --> 00:22:13,908
...and Nicholson respected that...

275
00:22:14,124 --> 00:22:17,412
...and sent that message
to the other actors...

276
00:22:17,711 --> 00:22:20,077
...and I think it had definitely...

277
00:22:20,297 --> 00:22:22,788
...a positive effect
on the rest of the cast.

278
00:22:31,392 --> 00:22:33,599
Here we see...

279
00:22:34,770 --> 00:22:38,262
...Lieutenant Galloway and
Kaffee meeting for the first time.

280
00:22:38,524 --> 00:22:40,435
There's sexual tension.

281
00:22:40,734 --> 00:22:44,067
There always is when you have
men and women together.

282
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,568
There's some sexual tension here
that we create...

283
00:22:47,783 --> 00:22:50,946
...but we never really
make good on it.

284
00:22:51,620 --> 00:22:54,908
And I think that's one of the pluses
of this film...

285
00:22:55,124 --> 00:22:57,456
...is that we didn't go for...

286
00:22:57,668 --> 00:23:00,660
...the romance you would expect
between these two.

287
00:23:00,963 --> 00:23:04,797
There was an undercurrent of
sexuality that was always present...

288
00:23:05,050 --> 00:23:08,793
...but I think it made it
a much stronger film...

289
00:23:09,054 --> 00:23:12,797
...not to go for the obvious
romantic interest...

290
00:23:13,058 --> 00:23:15,470
...that could occur here.

291
00:23:15,769 --> 00:23:22,311
Son of Lionel Kaffee, former
Attorney-General, died 1985.

292
00:23:22,568 --> 00:23:27,653
You went to Harvard, then joined the
Navy, because your father wanted it.

293
00:23:28,157 --> 00:23:34,869
You're just treading water here
until you get a real job.

294
00:23:35,164 --> 00:23:38,497
But that's fine, I won't tell.

295
00:23:38,792 --> 00:23:43,661
But if you handle this case in your
usual slick manner,

296
00:23:43,881 --> 00:23:47,499
then something's gonna get missed.

297
00:23:47,718 --> 00:23:52,838
I can't let Dawson and Downey
sit in jail

298
00:23:53,098 --> 00:23:57,512
because you chose
the path of least resistance.

299
00:23:59,021 --> 00:24:03,890
Wow!
I'm sexually aroused, Commander!

300
00:24:04,193 --> 00:24:10,314
I don't think it was murder.
There was no intent.

301
00:24:10,532 --> 00:24:15,026
Santiago asphyxiated
from acute lactic acidosis.

302
00:24:15,329 --> 00:24:22,041
It was suggestive of poison.
Whatever that means, it sounds bad.

303
00:24:22,336 --> 00:24:26,545
When he died, the doctor
didn't know the reason.

304
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:35,009
-Two hours later, he said poison.
-Was it Prof. Plumb in the library?

305
00:24:35,224 --> 00:24:37,556
I'll see your supervisor.

306
00:24:37,893 --> 00:24:43,433
He's in the big white house
with the pillars.

307
00:24:43,732 --> 00:24:50,353
I don't think you'll have much luck.
Division must think I'm good.

308
00:24:50,572 --> 00:24:54,736
I appreciate your interest and
enthusiasm, but I can handle things.

309
00:24:54,910 --> 00:24:56,400
With all films...

310
00:24:56,578 --> 00:25:01,072
...what you remember most
is the experience making a film...

311
00:25:01,291 --> 00:25:03,373
...not necessarily the film itself.

312
00:25:03,585 --> 00:25:06,452
And I remember this day,
when we shot this.

313
00:25:06,755 --> 00:25:11,670
I had--My first child was born,
he was five months old...

314
00:25:11,885 --> 00:25:15,594
...and we spent the day
in the park playing ball.

315
00:25:15,889 --> 00:25:20,178
We had some downtime, and we actually
played a softball game together...

316
00:25:20,436 --> 00:25:21,926
...the whole group of us.

317
00:25:22,187 --> 00:25:24,269
But my little boy was there...

318
00:25:24,565 --> 00:25:27,682
...experiencing the making of a film
for the first time.

319
00:25:30,904 --> 00:25:34,738
This scene we see James Marshall
and Wolfgang Bodison.

320
00:25:34,950 --> 00:25:39,114
Wolfgang, the big guy over there...

321
00:25:40,289 --> 00:25:42,780
...the African-American guy...

322
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,709
...who was one of the guys
chose by Corporal Dawson...

323
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:51,084
...was my assistant, actually,
on Misery, when we made Misery.

324
00:25:51,300 --> 00:25:54,633
And he was working at Castle Rock...

325
00:25:54,928 --> 00:25:57,965
...as an assistant location manager.

326
00:25:58,265 --> 00:26:00,972
I had a tough time
casting the part of Dawson.

327
00:26:01,268 --> 00:26:04,431
I didn't have a guy
who was big and strong.

328
00:26:04,646 --> 00:26:07,979
I couldn't find the right actor,
and one day...

329
00:26:08,233 --> 00:26:10,645
...we were in the hallway
at Castle Rock...

330
00:26:10,944 --> 00:26:13,811
...and Wolfgang walked by and I said:

331
00:26:14,114 --> 00:26:16,981
"I need somebody like Wolfgang
to play the part."

332
00:26:17,242 --> 00:26:21,326
I said to him, "Have you ever acted
before?" He said, "No."

333
00:26:21,538 --> 00:26:24,450
And I said, "You want to try?"
He said, "Yes."

334
00:26:24,666 --> 00:26:28,454
And he read for me
and he eventually got the part.

335
00:26:28,670 --> 00:26:31,002
We worked hard.
He'd never acted before.

336
00:26:31,298 --> 00:26:35,132
And we worked for many months
before we started shooting...

337
00:26:35,344 --> 00:26:38,177
...and by the time his
important scenes came up...

338
00:26:38,388 --> 00:26:41,175
...which was three months
into the production...

339
00:26:41,475 --> 00:26:44,467
...he was up to the task
and he did a great job.

340
00:26:47,397 --> 00:26:50,139
And James Marshall,
who plays Private Downey...

341
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,851
...is also a wonderful actor
and very naturalistic.

342
00:26:54,071 --> 00:26:57,655
-Turpentine, antifreeze?
-We were going to shave his head.

343
00:26:57,866 --> 00:27:03,702
-When suddenly...
-Blood was dripping down his mouth.

344
00:27:03,997 --> 00:27:10,539
There was blood all over his face,
so Dawson called the ambulance.

345
00:27:10,838 --> 00:27:15,548
-Did anyone see you call it?
-No, sir.

346
00:27:18,220 --> 00:27:22,304
-Were you there when it arrived?
-Yes, and we were arrested.

347
00:27:22,558 --> 00:27:29,054
Did you on Aug. 2nd fire a shot
across the fenceline into Cuba?

348
00:27:29,356 --> 00:27:33,315
Yes, sir. My mirror engaged, sir.

349
00:27:33,485 --> 00:27:40,698
Every American sentry has
a Cuban counterpart. His "mirror".

350
00:27:41,118 --> 00:27:44,235
What he's talking about
is the guards...

351
00:27:44,454 --> 00:27:47,412
...that were across the fenceline
in Guantanamo Bay.

352
00:27:47,624 --> 00:27:50,240
And I visited down there...

353
00:27:50,544 --> 00:27:53,081
...and stood on an American
guard post...

354
00:27:53,338 --> 00:27:55,920
...and I could look out and see,
literally...

355
00:27:56,133 --> 00:27:58,920
...between three and five hundred
yards away...

356
00:27:59,219 --> 00:28:04,213
...a Cuban guard post with a
Cuban soldier standing post.

357
00:28:04,433 --> 00:28:07,596
And you could see that
with your naked eyes.

358
00:28:07,853 --> 00:28:09,935
So there you are...

359
00:28:10,147 --> 00:28:14,436
...with the enemy, literally,
less than 500 yards away.

360
00:28:15,360 --> 00:28:17,976
All right.
Did you intend to kill Santiago?

361
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:22,444
—No, sir, to train him!
-Train him to do what?

362
00:28:22,910 --> 00:28:26,994
To think of his unit before himself.
To respect the code.

363
00:28:27,456 --> 00:28:30,948
-What's the code?
-Unit, Corps, God, Country!

364
00:28:31,460 --> 00:28:37,251
-Pardon?
-Unit, Corps, God, Country...sir.

365
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:59,436
The government
wants to charge you with murder.

366
00:28:59,655 --> 00:29:04,991
You want me to tell the prosecutor
'Unit, Corps, God, Country' ?

367
00:29:05,285 --> 00:29:09,449
That's our code, sir.

368
00:29:11,166 --> 00:29:15,660
That's your code.
We'll be back.

369
00:29:15,921 --> 00:29:21,837
-You need anything? Books, papers?
-No, thank you, sir!

370
00:29:22,135 --> 00:29:25,798
There's a concept
you'd better get used to.

371
00:29:26,223 --> 00:29:29,807
—Sir?
-I'm the only friend you've got.

372
00:29:41,488 --> 00:29:44,855
And here we see Kevin Bacon...

373
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:49,034
...who again, we had just
an incredible cast in this film.

374
00:29:49,246 --> 00:29:53,364
We were lucky to get somebody
of Kevin's calibre to play this part.

375
00:29:53,667 --> 00:29:58,752
Unfortunately I play softball best.
I'm off to Cuba, Janelle!

376
00:29:59,047 --> 00:30:02,380
Say hi to Castro for me.

377
00:30:02,592 --> 00:30:07,336
If they plead guilty
they get 20 years and serve half.

378
00:30:07,556 --> 00:30:13,472
-12. They called the ambulance.
-They killed a Marine.

379
00:30:13,729 --> 00:30:17,722
The lab says maybe
the rag was poisoned.

380
00:30:18,025 --> 00:30:22,394
The Chief of Internal Medicine
says he's sure.

381
00:30:22,612 --> 00:30:27,606
-What do you know about Code Reds?
-Oh, man...

382
00:30:28,410 --> 00:30:32,198
Are we off the record?

383
00:30:32,414 --> 00:30:37,204
You'll get the 12 years.
But you should know

384
00:30:37,419 --> 00:30:45,542
Lieutenant Kendrick specifically
told the men not to touch Santiago.

385
00:30:47,721 --> 00:30:51,384
-We playing hoops tomorrow?
-Do we have a deal?

386
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:55,013
I'll talk to you when I get back.

387
00:30:58,273 --> 00:31:03,313
-Any luck getting me replaced?
-Everyone's your friend.

388
00:31:03,612 --> 00:31:08,948
Listen, I came to make peace.
What do you say, friends?

389
00:31:09,242 --> 00:31:12,450
I took Downey
the comic books he wanted.

390
00:31:12,746 --> 00:31:16,580
He hardly knows
why he's been arrested.

391
00:31:16,792 --> 00:31:21,161
-Look, Commander...
-Call me JoAnne. Or Jo.

392
00:31:21,463 --> 00:31:27,049
You contact them again,
I'll have you disbarred. Friends?

393
00:31:27,302 --> 00:31:34,799
I had authorization
from Ginny Miller, his aunt.

394
00:31:35,685 --> 00:31:40,304
-Aunt Ginny authorized you?
-I called her.

395
00:31:40,565 --> 00:31:45,275
-We spoke for an hour.
-You were authorized by Aunt Ginny.

396
00:31:45,487 --> 00:31:50,447
-It's within my province.
-We can hold the trial in her barn.

397
00:31:50,659 --> 00:31:54,993
I'll sew the costumes,
Uncle Goober can be judge.

398
00:31:57,207 --> 00:32:01,667
I'm going to Cuba with you tomorrow.

399
00:32:01,878 --> 00:32:06,963
"And the hits just keep on coming."

400
00:32:08,844 --> 00:32:12,336
I like this recording of Big Mama
Thornton singing "Hound Dog"...

401
00:32:12,639 --> 00:32:15,847
...which was the
original, before Elvis made it famous.

402
00:32:16,017 --> 00:32:18,349
It was written by Lieber and
Stoller...

403
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:22,104
...and she was the original
artist to record "Hound Dog."

404
00:32:27,696 --> 00:32:31,530
-How's it going, Luther?
-Another day, another dollar.

405
00:32:31,867 --> 00:32:35,655
This is Harry Caesar, another
great actor who's no longer with us.

406
00:32:35,871 --> 00:32:39,204
But again, there's so
many good actors in the movie.

407
00:32:39,416 --> 00:32:42,704
They're all people
that look like they just...

408
00:32:42,919 --> 00:32:45,911
...came off the street
and walked into the film.

409
00:32:46,173 --> 00:32:50,337
You're my witness: the baby
spoke. She said a word.

410
00:32:50,552 --> 00:32:54,921
-She made a sound.
-Come on! It was definitely a word.

411
00:32:55,182 --> 00:32:58,390
We shot this in Georgetown,
in Washington, DC.

412
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:02,678
You heard her.
She pointed and said "Pa."

413
00:33:02,898 --> 00:33:04,559
She was pointing at a mailbox.

414
00:33:04,774 --> 00:33:09,438
That's right. Pointing as if
to say, "Pa! Look, a mailbox."

415
00:33:16,411 --> 00:33:20,074
Jack Ross came to see
me. Offered me the 12 years.

416
00:33:20,248 --> 00:33:23,081
-That's what you wanted, right?
-I know.

417
00:33:23,293 --> 00:33:24,658
I mean, I guess...

418
00:33:25,420 --> 00:33:28,583
I'll take it. I'll take it.

419
00:33:30,425 --> 00:33:33,758
It took about 45 seconds.
He barely put up a fight.

420
00:33:33,929 --> 00:33:37,421
Danny, take the 12 years, it's
a gift.

421
00:33:37,599 --> 00:33:42,059
You don't believe them. You
think they should go to jail for life.

422
00:33:42,270 --> 00:33:47,390
I believe every word of their
story, and I think they should get life.

423
00:33:52,614 --> 00:33:54,070
See you tomorrow.

424
00:33:54,699 --> 00:33:56,940
Don't forget to wear
white. Very hot there.

425
00:33:57,202 --> 00:34:00,285
-I don't like the whites.
-Nobody likes the whites.

426
00:34:00,455 --> 00:34:02,787
We're going to Cuba.
You got Dramamine?

427
00:34:02,999 --> 00:34:04,330
It keeps you cool?

428
00:34:04,626 --> 00:34:07,993
No, it keeps you from throwing
up. You get airsick.

429
00:34:08,255 --> 00:34:13,124
It's because I'm afraid of
crashing. Dramamine won't help.

430
00:34:13,969 --> 00:34:16,460
I got some oregano.
I hear that works.

431
00:34:19,933 --> 00:34:23,801
Ross said the strangest thing
to me right before I left.

432
00:34:23,979 --> 00:34:27,221
He said commander Lt.
Kendrick had a meeting with the men...

433
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,477
...and specifically told
them not to touch Santiago.

434
00:34:30,735 --> 00:34:31,815
So?

435
00:34:33,113 --> 00:34:36,355
I never mentioned Kendrick.
I don't know who he is.

436
00:34:39,244 --> 00:34:40,780
What the hell.

437
00:34:41,830 --> 00:34:43,320
I'll see you tomorrow.

438
00:35:04,561 --> 00:35:08,679
Interestingly enough,
Guantanamo Bay, part of Cuba...

439
00:35:08,898 --> 00:35:14,018
...is very dry and doesn't have that
lush feeling you associate with Cuba.

440
00:35:14,529 --> 00:35:18,522
So it was very accurate to
give it this dry and dusty look.

441
00:35:21,036 --> 00:35:26,201
Here we see Noah Wyle, who's
another wonderful actor in the film.

442
00:35:27,167 --> 00:35:32,036
Again, he was somebody who just
seemed like he walked in off the street.

443
00:35:34,382 --> 00:35:36,338
If Cubans see an officer
in white...

444
00:35:36,551 --> 00:35:39,384
...they might want to take a
shot.

445
00:35:41,056 --> 00:35:43,672
Good call, Sam.

446
00:35:47,896 --> 00:35:50,433
We'll hop on the ferry,
be there in no time.

447
00:35:50,690 --> 00:35:54,729
-Hold it. We're taking a boat?
-To get across the bay.

448
00:35:54,903 --> 00:35:57,895
-No one mentioned a boat.
-Is there a problem?

449
00:35:58,114 --> 00:36:01,732
No, I'm just not that crazy
about boats, that's all.

450
00:36:01,951 --> 00:36:06,194
Jesus Christ, you're in the
Navy, for crying out loud!

451
00:36:06,414 --> 00:36:09,577
-Nobody likes her very much.
-Yes, sir.

452
00:36:10,710 --> 00:36:14,874
We did this with a matte
shot and painted in those boats.

453
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,424
I don't do too many of
those kind of process shots.

454
00:36:19,636 --> 00:36:24,426
I don't find them particularly
effective, but there was one of them.

455
00:36:26,559 --> 00:36:29,346
Daniel Kaffee, I'm the
attorney for Dawson and Downey.

456
00:36:29,562 --> 00:36:33,430
This is Lt. Commander JoAnne
Galloway.

457
00:36:33,608 --> 00:36:37,567
Observing and evaluating.
Lt. Sam Weinberg, my assistant.

458
00:36:37,779 --> 00:36:42,113
This is Colonel Markinson,
and platoon leader Lt. Kendrick.

459
00:36:42,367 --> 00:36:44,779
I've asked them to join us.
Sit down.

460
00:36:44,953 --> 00:36:47,285
-Lieutenant Kaffee.
-Colonel Markinson.

461
00:36:47,497 --> 00:36:51,911
I met your father once.
He spoke at my high school.

462
00:36:52,919 --> 00:36:54,125
Lionel Kaffee?

463
00:36:54,921 --> 00:36:56,127
Yes, sir.

464
00:36:57,132 --> 00:37:01,592
This man's dad once made a lot of
enemies in your neck of the woods.

465
00:37:01,803 --> 00:37:05,387
Jefferson versus
Madison County School District.

466
00:37:05,598 --> 00:37:09,932
Folks down there didn't want
a black girl in a white school.

467
00:37:10,145 --> 00:37:13,808
Lionel Kaffee said,
"We'll see about that."

468
00:37:14,482 --> 00:37:16,473
How the hell is your dad, Danny?

469
00:37:16,818 --> 00:37:18,934
He passed away seven years ago, sir.

470
00:37:20,780 --> 00:37:23,487
Don't I feel like the fucking asshole!

471
00:37:23,783 --> 00:37:24,898
Not at all, sir.

472
00:37:26,286 --> 00:37:28,197
What can we do for you, Danny?

473
00:37:29,330 --> 00:37:31,161
Not much, sir.

474
00:37:31,958 --> 00:37:36,497
This is really a
formality more than anything else.

475
00:37:36,796 --> 00:37:39,629
They insist we interview everyone.

476
00:37:39,841 --> 00:37:42,423
JAG Corps can be demanding that way.

477
00:37:43,344 --> 00:37:46,177
Jon'll show you what you want
to see.

478
00:37:46,473 --> 00:37:48,429
After that we'll hook up for
lunch.

479
00:37:48,641 --> 00:37:51,678
-How does that sound?
-Fine, sir.

480
00:37:59,986 --> 00:38:03,069
-You met with your men that afternoon.
-Yes, I did.

481
00:38:03,323 --> 00:38:07,236
-What did you guys talk about?
-I told them we had an informer...

482
00:38:07,494 --> 00:38:10,156
...but despite any desires
they had to seek retribution...

483
00:38:10,371 --> 00:38:13,863
...Private Santiago was not
to be harmed in any way.

484
00:38:14,042 --> 00:38:16,829
-What time was that meeting?
-1600.

485
00:38:17,587 --> 00:38:19,327
That's four o'clock.

486
00:38:23,134 --> 00:38:24,670
This next scene coming up...

487
00:38:24,886 --> 00:38:29,004
...was something we added to
the film that didn't exist in the play.

488
00:38:29,224 --> 00:38:31,840
There were plot holes in the
play...

489
00:38:32,060 --> 00:38:35,018
...that don't get noticed
when you do a play...

490
00:38:35,230 --> 00:38:39,439
...but when you do a film,
very often the holes in a plot...

491
00:38:39,651 --> 00:38:41,437
...will become very evident.

492
00:38:41,694 --> 00:38:44,936
So this whole element here...

493
00:38:45,240 --> 00:38:49,529
...of discovering Santiago's locker...

494
00:38:49,744 --> 00:38:52,656
...and seeing that none
of the clothes were packed...

495
00:38:52,914 --> 00:38:55,747
...is something that
comes into play later on...

496
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,163
...and something that
Kaffee's able to use...

497
00:38:59,420 --> 00:39:03,083
...in an effort to shake
Jessep on the witness stand.

498
00:39:11,599 --> 00:39:15,342
We should make sure
somebody gets this to his parents.

499
00:39:18,606 --> 00:39:22,849
-Lt. Kendrick, may I call you Jon?
-No.

500
00:39:23,069 --> 00:39:26,903
-Have I offended you?
-No, I like all you Navy boys.

501
00:39:27,115 --> 00:39:31,279
The wonderful thing about Bob
Richardson's cinematography is...

502
00:39:31,536 --> 00:39:36,075
...if you look, he puts light in
places that are not obvious.

503
00:39:36,291 --> 00:39:40,455
You see that light across
the chin of Kiefer Sutherland...

504
00:39:40,712 --> 00:39:42,543
...and in the background...

505
00:39:42,797 --> 00:39:45,459
...but off of his face
and off of his eyes.

506
00:39:45,717 --> 00:39:49,801
So he uses light in a
very interesting way.

507
00:39:52,557 --> 00:39:55,299
If you see, the light
is on Kaffee's shirt...

508
00:39:55,518 --> 00:39:59,602
...and the light is
on Sam Weinberg's shoulder.

509
00:40:08,156 --> 00:40:10,818
We shot this down in San Pedro...

510
00:40:11,743 --> 00:40:15,577
...at the admiral
of the Coast Guard's house.

511
00:40:15,830 --> 00:40:20,790
This looks very much like what we saw
when we were in Guantanamo Bay.

512
00:40:21,044 --> 00:40:24,662
The commander of the base
had a house very similar to this.

513
00:40:24,923 --> 00:40:30,043
There were Jamaicans and Cubans
down there that did all the serving.

514
00:40:30,303 --> 00:40:35,047
This looks very, very much like what we
saw down in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

515
00:40:35,266 --> 00:40:40,056
An NIS agent told you that Santiago
knew about a fenceline shooting.

516
00:40:40,271 --> 00:40:43,809
Santiago was going to reveal
who did it in exchange for a transfer.

517
00:40:47,779 --> 00:40:50,612
If you feel there are any
details I'm missing...

518
00:40:50,823 --> 00:40:53,690
...you should feel free to
speak up.

519
00:40:56,329 --> 00:40:57,785
Thank you.

520
00:40:58,706 --> 00:41:02,198
This is a great scene
because we see Kaffee...

521
00:41:02,460 --> 00:41:05,952
...not really
putting himself forward...

522
00:41:06,214 --> 00:41:09,502
...and resisting having
to go through this process...

523
00:41:09,717 --> 00:41:12,504
...and not wanting
to really face it head-on.

524
00:41:12,720 --> 00:41:15,962
We see the beginning of the
transition he makes...

525
00:41:16,224 --> 00:41:20,183
...to become his own person
by the end of the film.

526
00:41:20,728 --> 00:41:24,391
On the first flight to the
State, 0600 next morning.

527
00:41:24,649 --> 00:41:28,608
Five hours too late, it turned
out.

528
00:41:32,740 --> 00:41:35,197
All right, that's all I
have. Thank you.

529
00:41:35,410 --> 00:41:39,323
The corporal will drive you
back.

530
00:41:39,539 --> 00:41:43,748
-Wait, I've got some questions.
-No, you don't. No!

531
00:41:44,002 --> 00:41:49,087
On the morning of the death,
did you meet with Dr. Stone?

532
00:41:49,340 --> 00:41:53,174
Of course I met with the doctor.
One of my men was dead.

533
00:41:53,386 --> 00:41:55,877
You see? He was dead. Let's go.

534
00:41:56,097 --> 00:41:59,510
Have you ever heard the term
Code Red?

535
00:42:00,893 --> 00:42:02,554
I've heard the term, yes.

536
00:42:02,770 --> 00:42:05,762
In February, you received
a cautionary memo...

537
00:42:06,024 --> 00:42:08,436
...from the Fleet Commander...

538
00:42:08,651 --> 00:42:13,270
...warning against enlisted
men disciplining their own.

539
00:42:13,448 --> 00:42:16,690
I submit to you that
whoever wrote that memo...

540
00:42:16,909 --> 00:42:22,029
...has never faced the working
end of a Cuban AK-47 assault rifle.

541
00:42:22,248 --> 00:42:23,283
However...

542
00:42:23,541 --> 00:42:27,659
...having come from the
commander, I gave it its due attention

543
00:42:27,879 --> 00:42:29,244
What is your point, Jo?

544
00:42:29,464 --> 00:42:33,958
She has no point, she often has none.
It's part of her charm. Goodbye!

545
00:42:34,218 --> 00:42:37,585
My point is that I think Code Reds
still go on.

546
00:42:37,805 --> 00:42:39,716
Do Code Reds still happen--

547
00:42:39,932 --> 00:42:42,264
-He doesn't need to answer that.
-Yes, he does.

548
00:42:42,477 --> 00:42:45,969
-No, he really doesn't.
-Yeah, he really does.

549
00:42:47,899 --> 00:42:50,686
Colonel?

550
00:42:50,902 --> 00:42:53,484
You know, it just hit me.

551
00:42:53,905 --> 00:42:55,736
She outranks you, Danny!

552
00:42:57,825 --> 00:43:01,238
I want to tell you something.
Listen up, I mean this.

553
00:43:01,454 --> 00:43:04,241
You're the luckiest man in the world.

554
00:43:04,457 --> 00:43:08,075
There is nothing on this
earth sexier, believe me...

555
00:43:08,294 --> 00:43:11,502
...than a woman you have
to salute in the morning.

556
00:43:12,173 --> 00:43:14,585
Promote them all, I say!

557
00:43:15,676 --> 00:43:20,010
If you've never had a
blowjob from a superior officer...

558
00:43:20,264 --> 00:43:23,222
...you're letting the best in
life pass you by.

559
00:43:24,435 --> 00:43:28,019
The practice of Code Reds
is still condoned here--

560
00:43:28,231 --> 00:43:31,018
I'm a colonel, so I'll
just take cold showers...

561
00:43:31,234 --> 00:43:34,226
...till they elect some gal
president.

562
00:43:34,654 --> 00:43:36,736
I need an answer to my
question.

563
00:43:36,948 --> 00:43:40,031
Take caution in your tone,
Commander.

564
00:43:40,284 --> 00:43:42,115
I'm a fair guy, but this...

565
00:43:42,328 --> 00:43:46,287
...fucking heat is making
me absolutely crazy.

566
00:43:47,542 --> 00:43:49,533
You asked me about Code Reds.

567
00:43:49,794 --> 00:43:54,254
On the record, I discourage it,
in accordance with the commander.

568
00:43:54,465 --> 00:43:59,380
Off the record,
it's an invaluable part of training.

569
00:43:59,554 --> 00:44:03,263
If it goes on without my
knowledge, so be it.

570
00:44:03,516 --> 00:44:06,383
I run my unit how I run my unit.

571
00:44:06,561 --> 00:44:11,021
If you want to investigate me,
roll the dice and take your chances.

572
00:44:11,232 --> 00:44:15,726
I eat breakfast 300 yards
from 4000 Cubans trained to kill me.

573
00:44:15,903 --> 00:44:18,519
So don't think you can
come down here...

574
00:44:18,739 --> 00:44:23,199
...flash a badge and make me
nervous.

575
00:44:27,874 --> 00:44:29,535
Let's go.

576
00:44:32,086 --> 00:44:35,419
Colonel, I just need a copy
of Santiago's transfer order.

577
00:44:36,090 --> 00:44:37,170
What's that?

578
00:44:37,425 --> 00:44:42,294
Santiago's transfer order.
You guys have paperwork. For the file.

579
00:44:42,805 --> 00:44:43,920
For the file?

580
00:44:44,307 --> 00:44:45,513
Yeah.

581
00:44:47,518 --> 00:44:51,261
Of course you can have a
copy of the transfer order.

582
00:44:51,439 --> 00:44:55,273
-I'm here to help in any way I can.
-Thank you.

583
00:44:55,443 --> 00:44:59,311
You believe that, don't you?
That I'll help any way I can?

584
00:45:00,615 --> 00:45:01,695
Of course.

585
00:45:01,908 --> 00:45:07,028
The corporal will take you by personnel
on your way to the flight line.

586
00:45:07,246 --> 00:45:10,204
You can have all the transfer
orders you want.

587
00:45:12,418 --> 00:45:14,454
But you have to ask me nicely.

588
00:45:16,839 --> 00:45:18,124
I beg your pardon?

589
00:45:18,341 --> 00:45:21,128
You have to ask me nicely.

590
00:45:21,385 --> 00:45:24,718
I can deal with bullets,
bombs and blood.

591
00:45:24,931 --> 00:45:27,889
I don't want money or medals.

592
00:45:28,100 --> 00:45:30,466
What I do want is for you to
stand there...

593
00:45:30,728 --> 00:45:34,641
...in that faggoty white
uniform and Harvard mouth...

594
00:45:34,899 --> 00:45:37,265
...extend me some fucking
courtesy.

595
00:45:40,112 --> 00:45:42,478
You got to ask me nicely.

596
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:48,651
Colonel Jessep, if it's not
too much trouble...

597
00:45:48,955 --> 00:45:51,162
...I'd like a copy of the
transfer order...

598
00:45:51,666 --> 00:45:52,872
...sir.

599
00:45:55,753 --> 00:45:57,459
No problem.

600
00:46:02,009 --> 00:46:06,298
The score in this film
was very understated...

601
00:46:06,514 --> 00:46:09,506
...but I think it's very effective.

602
00:46:09,767 --> 00:46:13,976
Mark Shaman, who is incredibly
versatile, did the score for this...

603
00:46:14,188 --> 00:46:17,680
...as well as a number of
scores of other films I've done...

604
00:46:17,900 --> 00:46:22,189
...and this music, which is
very haunting, has been used...

605
00:46:22,446 --> 00:46:25,529
...in many other places...

606
00:46:25,783 --> 00:46:30,197
...in commercials, in TV
shows and all kinds of things.

607
00:46:40,298 --> 00:46:42,505
-Who is it?
-It's me.

608
00:46:45,011 --> 00:46:49,129
I've really missed you.
It's been almost three hours--

609
00:46:49,348 --> 00:46:51,213
Markinson's disappeared.

610
00:46:52,018 --> 00:46:55,055
He's gone U.A. Unauthorized Absence.

611
00:46:55,313 --> 00:46:59,647
-I know what it means. When?
-This afternoon, after we left.

612
00:46:59,859 --> 00:47:04,228
-I'II find him in the morning.
-I've already tried.

613
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,480
You're coming dangerously
close...

614
00:47:07,700 --> 00:47:10,942
...to interfering with
a government investigation.

615
00:47:11,162 --> 00:47:13,949
I'm Louden Downey's attorney.

616
00:47:14,165 --> 00:47:17,453
Aunt Ginny feels like she's
known me for years.

617
00:47:17,668 --> 00:47:22,002
So I suggested that I get
more directly involved with the case.

618
00:47:22,214 --> 00:47:25,581
She had Louden sign the
papers about an hour ago.

619
00:47:25,843 --> 00:47:30,007
I suppose it's too much to hope
you're making this up to bother me.

620
00:47:30,431 --> 00:47:35,221
-Don't worry, you're still lead counsel.
-Splendid.

621
00:47:35,436 --> 00:47:38,098
I think Kendrick ordered the
Code Red. So do you.

622
00:47:40,107 --> 00:47:41,938
Let's go.

623
00:47:45,946 --> 00:47:47,482
Officer on deck, atten—hut!

624
00:47:47,698 --> 00:47:49,438
-Did Kendrick order Code Red?
-Sir?

625
00:47:49,617 --> 00:47:53,280
Don't say sir like I just asked you
if you cleaned the latrine.

626
00:47:53,537 --> 00:47:58,201
You heard me. Did Lt. Kendrick order
you guys to give Santiago a Code Red?

627
00:47:59,001 --> 00:48:00,116
Yes, sir.

628
00:48:01,420 --> 00:48:02,409
Did he?

629
00:48:02,922 --> 00:48:03,911
Yes, sir.

630
00:48:08,969 --> 00:48:11,460
Why didn't you mention this before?

631
00:48:12,139 --> 00:48:13,504
You didn't ask us, sir.

632
00:48:14,141 --> 00:48:18,475
I get paid, no matter how much
time you spend in jail.

633
00:48:18,646 --> 00:48:22,935
-I know you do, sir.
-Fuck you, Harold!

634
00:48:23,984 --> 00:48:25,144
At ease.

635
00:48:25,986 --> 00:48:28,022
-Let's sort this thing out.
-Shit!

636
00:48:28,656 --> 00:48:31,819
There was a platoon meeting
on September 6th.

637
00:48:32,076 --> 00:48:36,445
Lt. Kendrick says he told
you nothing was to happen to Santiago.

638
00:48:36,956 --> 00:48:38,662
Is this true?

639
00:48:40,459 --> 00:48:42,290
I want you to speak freely.

640
00:48:45,172 --> 00:48:49,461
That's correct. But then he dismissed
the platoon and we went to our rooms.

641
00:48:49,677 --> 00:48:50,917
-What happened then?
-Lt. Kendrick came to our room.

642
00:48:51,429 --> 00:48:53,590
Lt. Kendrick came to our room.

643
00:48:53,764 --> 00:48:54,753
When?

644
00:48:56,308 --> 00:49:00,472
About five minutes after
the meeting broke. About 16.20.

645
00:49:00,688 --> 00:49:02,178
And what happened then?

646
00:49:03,023 --> 00:49:07,437
Lt. Kendrick ordered us
to give Santiago a Code Red.

647
00:49:09,363 --> 00:49:12,275
This sequence coming up
is one of my favorites.

648
00:49:12,533 --> 00:49:14,694
I love the way it's shot...

649
00:49:14,994 --> 00:49:18,486
...and I also think the
acting is brilliant in it.

650
00:49:18,706 --> 00:49:21,368
We see this kind of
face-off...

651
00:49:21,667 --> 00:49:24,955
...between Kevin Bacon and
Tom Cruise here.

652
00:49:25,212 --> 00:49:29,000
We got two great actors,
and Aaron writes wonderful dialog...

653
00:49:29,216 --> 00:49:32,049
...and he has
really intelligent characters...

654
00:49:32,303 --> 00:49:37,047
...and you see very intelligent people
going after each other in this scene.

655
00:49:37,725 --> 00:49:43,311
God forbid our clients might plead
not guilty and testify they were ordered.

656
00:49:43,522 --> 00:49:46,605
Kendrick told them
not to touch Santiago.

657
00:49:46,817 --> 00:49:50,526
And then he told Dawson and
Downey to give him a Code Red.

658
00:49:50,738 --> 00:49:52,729
-Kendrick's lying.
-You have proof?

659
00:49:52,990 --> 00:49:57,404
23 Marines and a highly
decorated lieutenant disagree.

660
00:49:57,620 --> 00:49:59,611
-Why did Markinson go U.A.?
-You'll never know.

661
00:49:59,872 --> 00:50:02,739
-I can't subpoena Markinson?
-You won't find him.

662
00:50:03,042 --> 00:50:08,253
You know what Markinson
did for 17 years? Counterintelligence.

663
00:50:08,422 --> 00:50:11,255
Markinson's gone.
There is no Markinson.

664
00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:13,920
Look, Danny.

665
00:50:14,637 --> 00:50:17,253
Jessep's star is on the rise.

666
00:50:17,598 --> 00:50:22,888
Division wants to spare
him and the Corps any embarrassment.

667
00:50:24,021 --> 00:50:27,434
I'II knock it down to
involuntary manslaughter. Two years.

668
00:50:27,650 --> 00:50:28,765
No, we'll go to court.

669
00:50:29,068 --> 00:50:30,933
-No, you're not.
-Why not?

670
00:50:31,237 --> 00:50:34,195
Because you'll lose. Danny
knows it.

671
00:50:34,406 --> 00:50:37,193
If we go to court, I'll have
to go all the way:

672
00:50:37,409 --> 00:50:42,119
They'll be charged with murder,
conspiracy, conduct unbecoming.

673
00:50:42,289 --> 00:50:47,124
Danny's got me by the balls
here, but not in the courtroom.

674
00:50:47,294 --> 00:50:51,412
Danny's a talented lawyer.
He won't let them get life...

675
00:50:51,632 --> 00:50:54,123
...if they could be home in
six months.

676
00:50:55,052 --> 00:50:56,792
That's the end of this negotiation.

677
00:50:57,596 --> 00:51:00,053
See you at the arraignment.

678
00:51:03,435 --> 00:51:05,767
All right, here's the story:

679
00:51:05,980 --> 00:51:10,690
The government's offering
involuntary manslaughter. Two years.

680
00:51:11,277 --> 00:51:13,188
You'll be home in six months.

681
00:51:15,990 --> 00:51:20,450
Wow! You're the greatest
lawyer in the world!

682
00:51:20,661 --> 00:51:22,492
How can we ever thank you?

683
00:51:22,705 --> 00:51:25,196
Did you hear what I just said?

684
00:51:25,416 --> 00:51:28,203
You're going home in six months.

685
00:51:28,752 --> 00:51:30,834
I'm afraid we can't do that, sir.

686
00:51:31,213 --> 00:51:32,248
Do what?

687
00:51:32,506 --> 00:51:35,839
-Make a deal, sir.
-What are you talking about?

688
00:51:36,010 --> 00:51:38,968
We did nothing wrong.
We did our job.

689
00:51:39,179 --> 00:51:42,171
If that has consequences,
I'II accept them.

690
00:51:42,349 --> 00:51:44,465
But I won't say that I'm guilty, sir.

691
00:51:46,020 --> 00:51:51,105
-Did she put you up to this?
-We have a code, sir.

692
00:51:51,317 --> 00:51:56,357
You and your code plead not guilty.
You'll be in jail for life.

693
00:51:56,530 --> 00:52:00,523
Do what I tell you,
you'll be home in six months.

694
00:52:00,743 --> 00:52:05,954
Do it, Harold. Six months,
it's nothing, it's a hockey season!

695
00:52:08,375 --> 00:52:11,993
Permission to-- Speak! Jesus!

696
00:52:14,757 --> 00:52:17,624
—What do we do then, sir?
-When?

697
00:52:17,843 --> 00:52:20,710
After six months we'll
be dishonorably discharged.

698
00:52:20,888 --> 00:52:25,473
-Probably.
-What do we do then, sir?

699
00:52:28,062 --> 00:52:32,226
We joined the Marines because we
wanted to live by a certain code.

700
00:52:32,483 --> 00:52:33,814
We found it in the Corps.

701
00:52:34,026 --> 00:52:37,268
You're asking us to say we
have no honor...

702
00:52:37,488 --> 00:52:39,399
...to say we're not Marines!

703
00:52:39,657 --> 00:52:43,821
If a court decides we were
wrong, I'll accept my punishment.

704
00:52:44,036 --> 00:52:46,322
But I believe I did my job.

705
00:52:46,538 --> 00:52:49,655
I will not dishonor myself,
my unit...

706
00:52:49,875 --> 00:52:53,333
...or the Corps
so that I can go home in six months.

707
00:52:53,545 --> 00:52:57,037
We shot this scene almost
the last day of the shoot...

708
00:52:57,299 --> 00:53:02,419
...and I worked with Wolfgang for
six months before we shot this scene...

709
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,513
...and you can see he rose
to the occasion.

710
00:53:05,766 --> 00:53:09,179
But it took a lot of work
and he worked very hard...

711
00:53:09,436 --> 00:53:14,100
...and he had never acted before
so this was a big challenge for him.

712
00:53:14,733 --> 00:53:16,598
We'd like to go to another room.

713
00:53:18,237 --> 00:53:19,352
Sit down.

714
00:53:30,874 --> 00:53:32,865
You don't like me very much, do you?

715
00:53:34,336 --> 00:53:38,625
Forget it, it doesn't matter.

716
00:53:43,762 --> 00:53:44,968
You know...

717
00:53:46,432 --> 00:53:48,343
...Downey worships you.

718
00:53:51,103 --> 00:53:53,344
He'll do whatever you do.

719
00:53:54,648 --> 00:53:59,142
Are you going to let this happen
to him because of a code?

720
00:53:59,361 --> 00:54:00,851
Do you think we were right?

721
00:54:01,071 --> 00:54:03,437
-It doesn't matter--
-Do you think we were right?!

722
00:54:04,116 --> 00:54:05,981
I think you'd lose.

723
00:54:07,995 --> 00:54:09,735
You're such a coward.

724
00:54:09,955 --> 00:54:12,492
I can't believe you wear a uniform.

725
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:17,747
I won't be responsible for this.

726
00:54:17,963 --> 00:54:20,329
You're going to Leavenworth
for the better part of your life...

727
00:54:20,507 --> 00:54:23,249
...and you know what?
I don't give a shit!

728
00:54:24,344 --> 00:54:25,925
What happened to saluting an
officer...

729
00:54:26,138 --> 00:54:27,753
...when he leaves the room?

730
00:54:40,569 --> 00:54:44,687
I don't believe it!
He's going to jail to spite me!

731
00:54:44,907 --> 00:54:49,321
Fine! If he wants to jump off
a cliff, that's his business.

732
00:54:49,536 --> 00:54:53,745
-How do I get him a new lawyer?
-Make a motion at the arraignment.

733
00:54:53,957 --> 00:54:58,200
The judge asks if you'll enter a plea,
say you want new counsel assigned.

734
00:54:59,880 --> 00:55:01,245
That's that.

735
00:55:01,965 --> 00:55:06,629
One thing, though. When you ask for
new counsel, be sure and ask nicely.

736
00:55:07,888 --> 00:55:12,723
-What do you want from me?
-I want you to make an argument.

737
00:55:13,602 --> 00:55:18,346
That didn't help Calley at My Lai,
or the Nazis at Nuremberg.

738
00:55:18,565 --> 00:55:21,728
Do you think that's the same

739
00:55:21,902 --> 00:55:25,065
as two teenagers executing an order

740
00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:27,400
they didn't think would harm?

741
00:55:27,658 --> 00:55:30,570
Don't look now,
but you're making an argument.

742
00:55:32,621 --> 00:55:35,909
I'll get them a new attorney.

743
00:55:36,083 --> 00:55:40,292
What are you afraid of?
You father's expectations?

744
00:55:40,504 --> 00:55:43,496
Spare me the psychobabble!

745
00:55:43,757 --> 00:55:47,420
They'll just have another lawyer.

746
00:55:47,636 --> 00:55:51,879
They need you.
You know how to win.

747
00:55:52,099 --> 00:55:56,593
If you walk away from this now,
you've sealed their fate.

748
00:55:56,812 --> 00:56:00,020
Their fate was sealed
when Santiago died.

749
00:56:00,274 --> 00:56:04,938
-Do they have a case?
-You and Dawson are dreamers.

750
00:56:05,153 --> 00:56:08,987
It's not what I believe,
but what I can prove.

751
00:56:09,199 --> 00:56:12,942
So, don't tell me what I know
or don't know. I know the law!

752
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:15,657
Here we have Tom
fighting tooth and nail...

753
00:56:15,914 --> 00:56:19,156
...to hang onto his youth...

754
00:56:19,418 --> 00:56:24,412
...and his irresponsible behavior...

755
00:56:24,631 --> 00:56:27,839
...and not wanting to face...

756
00:56:28,135 --> 00:56:30,296
...who he really is and be a man.

757
00:56:30,679 --> 00:56:33,466
And you've got JoAnne Galloway
pulling him...

758
00:56:33,682 --> 00:56:37,300
...as he goes kicking
and screaming into manhood.

759
00:56:37,519 --> 00:56:40,226
And it's really what drew me
to this project.

760
00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:43,142
You have somebody...

761
00:56:43,650 --> 00:56:46,983
...who's facing the burden
of a famous father...

762
00:56:47,195 --> 00:56:49,151
...and living in his shadow.

763
00:56:49,364 --> 00:56:52,151
A father who's accomplished
a tremendous amount.

764
00:56:52,326 --> 00:56:53,566
In this case, in law.

765
00:56:53,827 --> 00:56:58,947
And a young man who is wrestling
with who he is...

766
00:56:59,166 --> 00:57:02,750
...in relationship to his father
and becoming his own man.

767
00:57:03,003 --> 00:57:07,372
To me, that's the core of this film.
Aside from, like I say...

768
00:57:07,674 --> 00:57:11,166
...the elements of military
justice that we deal with.

769
00:57:11,970 --> 00:57:14,461
But that's what drew me to this film.

770
00:57:40,082 --> 00:57:41,993
All rise.

771
00:57:48,215 --> 00:57:51,298
Here we have J.A. Preston playing the
judge_.

772
00:57:51,551 --> 00:57:53,587
...who's another wonderful actor.

773
00:57:55,430 --> 00:57:58,092
We had so many good actors
and a great script...

774
00:57:58,308 --> 00:58:03,052
...that if! had messed this thing up,
they'd take my Director's Guild card.

775
00:58:06,525 --> 00:58:10,939
Does the defense
wish to enter a plea?

776
00:58:15,409 --> 00:58:18,276
They're not guilty.

777
00:58:18,537 --> 00:58:22,621
Enter a plea of "not guilty".

778
00:58:22,833 --> 00:58:27,247
Adjourned until 10.00,
three weeks from today,

779
00:58:27,421 --> 00:58:29,537
when we will reconvene.

780
00:58:45,689 --> 00:58:51,275
Why would a lieutenant with so little
experience

781
00:58:51,445 --> 00:58:53,436
get a murder case?

782
00:58:55,449 --> 00:59:00,944
Would it be, so that it never sees
the inside of a courtroom?

783
00:59:05,375 --> 00:59:07,832
This is where he makes
that transition.

784
00:59:08,086 --> 00:59:11,670
And it's great.
The way Aaron constructs this play...

785
00:59:11,965 --> 00:59:14,581
...and this screenplay is beautiful.

786
00:59:14,801 --> 00:59:17,793
We see this character turning
on a dime here...

787
00:59:18,096 --> 00:59:21,463
...and starting the process
of becoming a man.

788
00:59:27,981 --> 00:59:33,021
So this is
what a courtroom looks like!

789
00:59:40,827 --> 00:59:44,319
Did you speak
to your friend at the NIS?

790
00:59:44,539 --> 00:59:49,624
She said, if Markinson doesn't
want to be found, he won't be.

791
00:59:49,836 --> 00:59:54,250
I could be Markinson,
and you wouldn't know.

792
00:59:54,508 --> 00:59:58,547
—Are you Markinson?
-No.

793
00:59:58,762 --> 01:00:03,677
I'm not Markinson.
That's two down.

794
01:00:05,685 --> 01:00:07,721
What?

795
01:00:08,355 --> 01:00:12,143
Now that JoAnne's on this...

796
01:00:12,359 --> 01:00:14,725
Do you still need me?

797
01:00:15,028 --> 01:00:17,394
-They were ordered, Sam.
-An illegal order.

798
01:00:17,656 --> 01:00:19,942
You think Dawson and Downey
knew it was illegal?

799
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:23,067
Any decent person would have...

800
01:00:23,286 --> 01:00:25,698
They can't question orders.

801
01:00:25,872 --> 01:00:30,457
What's the secret?
I give orders nobody obeys!

802
01:00:30,710 --> 01:00:34,202
We have softball and marching bands.

803
01:00:34,381 --> 01:00:36,793
They risk getting shot at.

804
01:00:44,432 --> 01:00:48,675
I need you.
You're better at research than I am.

805
01:00:48,895 --> 01:00:53,389
And you know
how to prepare a witness.

806
01:00:56,903 --> 01:01:02,239
I've got medical reports
and Chinese food. Let's eat first.

807
01:01:07,622 --> 01:01:10,910
What?

808
01:01:11,084 --> 01:01:13,496
Got any kung pao chicken?

809
01:01:13,753 --> 01:01:15,459
That line never got a laugh.

810
01:01:15,714 --> 01:01:19,923
I always thought it was funny,
but no audience ever laughed at it.

811
01:01:20,093 --> 01:01:22,584
Code Reds are normal at Guantanamo.

812
01:01:22,804 --> 01:01:28,265
And there was an order. Kendrick
gave it, they had no choice.

813
01:01:28,476 --> 01:01:33,015
-What about their motive?
-That doesn't make them guilty.

814
01:01:33,273 --> 01:01:36,310
We'll deal with that later.

815
01:01:36,526 --> 01:01:41,771
We must show that Santiago could
have died from something else.

816
01:01:41,990 --> 01:01:46,359
Jo, find out all about
lactic acidosis.

817
01:01:46,953 --> 01:01:51,788
This was a montage that showed how
they were preparing for the case...

818
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:54,958
...and you'll notice
the last part of it...

819
01:01:55,170 --> 01:01:57,786
...is just merely a push-in...

820
01:01:58,006 --> 01:02:00,622
...on the apartment that they're in.

821
01:02:00,842 --> 01:02:03,879
But it was a very, very complicated...

822
01:02:05,263 --> 01:02:07,174
...piece of filming to do...

823
01:02:07,390 --> 01:02:11,133
...because it changed light...

824
01:02:11,353 --> 01:02:16,313
...we changed costumes, and it gave
the sense of days going by...

825
01:02:16,566 --> 01:02:20,150
...and yet it's just one single camera
moving in on a building.

826
01:02:20,362 --> 01:02:23,900
It looks very simple,
but it was very, very complicated.

827
01:02:24,157 --> 01:02:27,991
There's no tricks to it.
Here it is. Here it comes.

828
01:02:28,286 --> 01:02:32,029
There are no tricks to it,
no computer-generated anything.

829
01:02:32,290 --> 01:02:36,659
It's just the camera moving in
and we didn't use motion control.

830
01:02:36,836 --> 01:02:41,421
We did it in the old-fashioned way,
and I think it's very effective.

831
01:02:41,675 --> 01:02:46,669
They want to know
who's to blame. We say, Kendrick.

832
01:02:46,888 --> 01:02:52,428
This won't be won by the law,
but by the lawyers. So, poker faces.

833
01:02:52,686 --> 01:02:57,851
If something goes wrong,
don't hang your head or scribble.

834
01:02:58,024 --> 01:03:01,687
Look like you expected it.

835
01:03:01,861 --> 01:03:06,605
-Pass me documents--
-"Swiftly, and don't look anxious."

836
01:03:06,866 --> 01:03:11,075
That perfume
wrecks my concentration.

837
01:03:11,329 --> 01:03:14,742
I was talking to Sam.

838
01:03:14,958 --> 01:03:19,543
-What time is it?
-Time to go home and sleep.

839
01:03:19,713 --> 01:03:23,547
-Give me a ride?
-Sure.

840
01:03:25,385 --> 01:03:31,130
-You're a good man, Charlie Brown.
-See you in court, counsellor.

841
01:03:36,396 --> 01:03:39,854
I know. We've had our differences.

842
01:03:40,066 --> 01:03:44,651
We both said things we didn't mean.

843
01:03:44,904 --> 01:03:51,116
If you've gained some respect
for me, I'm happy about that.

844
01:03:51,369 --> 01:03:55,612
But it's no big deal.
You needn't say you like me.

845
01:03:56,291 --> 01:04:00,910
I was just going to tell you
to wear matching socks

846
01:04:01,129 --> 01:04:04,246
Okay. Good tip.

847
01:04:04,883 --> 01:04:09,593
Tom had never done any comedy before,
but he worked very hard.

848
01:04:09,971 --> 01:04:15,091
He went to school on me, as they say,
and he went to school on Kevin Pollak.

849
01:04:15,393 --> 01:04:20,262
And you can see he's got great timing
and some great comic rhythms.

850
01:04:52,806 --> 01:04:57,971
-You are gonna save our son?
-I'II do my best.

851
01:05:00,939 --> 01:05:03,521
Ginny is played my Maud Winchester.

852
01:05:03,733 --> 01:05:08,853
Maud is my brother Lucas' wife.
And she's a wonderful actress.

853
01:05:09,072 --> 01:05:12,815
-I was expecting someone older.
-So was I.

854
01:05:17,455 --> 01:05:20,071
—Last chance. I'll flip you for it.
-All rise.

855
01:05:20,250 --> 01:05:21,239
Too late.

856
01:05:28,591 --> 01:05:31,833
The courtroom set is beautiful,
I think.

857
01:05:32,595 --> 01:05:36,179
J. Michael Riva, the production
designer on the film...

858
01:05:36,391 --> 01:05:38,507
...I think did a great job.

859
01:05:38,768 --> 01:05:40,759
It has this kind of...

860
01:05:41,521 --> 01:05:45,560
...formal military
kind of magnitude...

861
01:05:45,859 --> 01:05:49,101
...and yet it's very traditional.

862
01:05:49,362 --> 01:05:54,106
But it gives the whole proceedings
an extra added weight.

863
01:05:54,868 --> 01:06:00,079
They woke him, tied him,
and forced a rag into his throat.

864
01:06:00,290 --> 01:06:06,035
A reaction called lactic acidosis
caused his lungs to bleed.

865
01:06:06,212 --> 01:06:11,707
He drowned in his own blood,
and was dead at 00.37 am.

866
01:06:11,885 --> 01:06:16,800
These are
the undisputed facts of the case.

867
01:06:17,056 --> 01:06:22,221
What I've just told you
is exactly what you will hear...

868
01:06:22,437 --> 01:06:27,022
...from Corporal Dawson
and Private Downey.

869
01:06:27,233 --> 01:06:32,227
We will also show that
they soaked the rag in poison...

870
01:06:32,405 --> 01:06:37,741
...and entered Santiago's room
with motive and intent to kill.

871
01:06:37,911 --> 01:06:43,247
Lt. Kaffee is going to try
and work a little magic here.

872
01:06:43,458 --> 01:06:49,169
He'll try a little misdirection.
Astonishing stories of rituals.

873
01:06:49,422 --> 01:06:55,588
Dazzle you with official-sounding
terms like "Code Red."

874
01:06:55,762 --> 01:06:59,050
He may even try to cut
into a few officers.

875
01:06:59,265 --> 01:07:03,679
He has no evidence,
but it'll be entertaining.

876
01:07:03,937 --> 01:07:10,058
But in the end, all this magic
will not obscure the fact...

877
01:07:10,276 --> 01:07:17,114
...that Willy Santiago is dead,
and Dawson and Downey killed him.

878
01:07:17,325 --> 01:07:24,072
-These are the undisputed facts.
-Lt. Kaffee.

879
01:07:24,290 --> 01:07:31,787
It is futile to try and prove that
there was poison or intent to kill.

880
01:07:31,965 --> 01:07:37,631
Dawson and Downey didn't go to
Santiago seeking vengeance.

881
01:07:37,804 --> 01:07:45,222
And they weren't looking for kicks.
They were ordered to do it.

882
01:07:45,812 --> 01:07:50,397
I'll say that again:
They were ordered to do it.

883
01:07:51,192 --> 01:07:57,233
In the real world, or here in
Washington, that doesn't mean much.

884
01:07:57,490 --> 01:08:03,326
But if you're a Marine
in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba...

885
01:08:03,538 --> 01:08:06,905
...you follow orders,
or you pack your bags.

886
01:08:07,166 --> 01:08:15,835
Dawson and Downey are sitting here
because they did their job.

887
01:08:19,345 --> 01:08:26,387
-Call the first witness.
-We call Mr. R.C. McGuire.

888
01:08:29,355 --> 01:08:31,641
Here's an actor named Arthur Senzy.

889
01:08:31,858 --> 01:08:36,352
And like I say, all the small parts
in the film had this...

890
01:08:36,571 --> 01:08:41,531
We had these wonderful actors with
a kind of very naturalistic quality.

891
01:08:41,743 --> 01:08:45,702
Every one of the witnesses
have this great quality.

892
01:08:45,872 --> 01:08:50,161
Robert C. McGuire,
Special Agent, NIS.

893
01:08:50,376 --> 01:08:56,713
Did you receive a letter from PFC
Santiago on the 3rd of September?

894
01:08:56,883 --> 01:08:58,794
-We did.
-What did it say?

895
01:08:59,052 --> 01:09:03,762
That a member of the unit had shot
across the fenceline.

896
01:09:03,973 --> 01:09:06,055
Was he named?

897
01:09:06,225 --> 01:09:11,595
No. I told Colonel Jessep that I
would be coming down to investigate.

898
01:09:11,814 --> 01:09:13,395
And what did you find?

899
01:09:13,733 --> 01:09:18,568
Only one sentry
had a bullet missing.

900
01:09:18,780 --> 01:09:23,740
-Who was that?
-Corporal Harold Dawson.

901
01:09:26,412 --> 01:09:33,409
-What did Dawson say about this?
-That he was engaged by the enemy.

902
01:09:33,628 --> 01:09:36,335
-But you don't believe him?
-It's not--

903
01:09:36,589 --> 01:09:40,923
Why was Dawson never charged?

904
01:09:42,762 --> 01:09:48,598
-There wasn't enough evidence.
-Thank you.

905
01:09:48,810 --> 01:09:55,932
Why was there not enough evidence?
You had the letter.

906
01:09:57,026 --> 01:10:02,521
Santiago was the only eyewitness.
I had no chance to interview him.

907
01:10:02,782 --> 01:10:07,993
-And now we'll never know, right?
-No.

908
01:10:09,455 --> 01:10:12,947
-No more questions.
-The witness is excused.

909
01:10:13,167 --> 01:10:15,783
Here's a trick that
Hitchcock used in Rope.

910
01:10:16,003 --> 01:10:19,621
You pass by a pillar
and you turn into another scene.

911
01:10:19,799 --> 01:10:24,793
And it's pretty effective
and it's fairly simple.

912
01:10:25,304 --> 01:10:30,469
You just keep the camera locked
into position behind the pillar...

913
01:10:30,977 --> 01:10:33,138
...change the lighting and actors...

914
01:10:33,312 --> 01:10:37,521
...and then just move the camera
beyond the pillar.

915
01:10:41,571 --> 01:10:44,904
Here's Cuba Gooding, Jr.,
another wonderful actor.

916
01:10:45,158 --> 01:10:48,321
-Did that make you mad? Truthfully?
-Yes, sir.

917
01:10:48,494 --> 01:10:53,488
-How mad?
-Santiago betrayed our code.

918
01:10:53,666 --> 01:10:56,328
-Were other men also angry?
-Objection. Speculation.

919
01:10:56,544 --> 01:10:58,159
Were Dawson and Downey?

920
01:10:58,379 --> 01:11:03,669
Objection! The witness is asked
how my clients felt on Sept. 6th.

921
01:11:03,843 --> 01:11:07,427
Sustained.

922
01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:11,172
Did Lieutenant Kendrick give you
a standing order at that meeting?

923
01:11:11,434 --> 01:11:13,675
-Yes, sir.
-What was it?

924
01:11:15,897 --> 01:11:19,185
He said, not to take
matters into our own hands.

925
01:11:19,400 --> 01:11:26,192
-What was the order?
-Santiago wasn't to be touched.

926
01:11:27,742 --> 01:11:30,404
Your witness.

927
01:11:30,620 --> 01:11:34,204
Were you in Dawson and Downey's
room five minutes later?

928
01:11:34,540 --> 01:11:35,825
No, sir.

929
01:11:36,209 --> 01:11:40,828
-Thanks. No more questions.
-The witness is excused.

930
01:11:44,759 --> 01:11:47,216
Corporal Raymond Thomas.

931
01:11:50,598 --> 01:11:54,466
This is the benefits
of shooting a film...

932
01:11:54,727 --> 01:11:56,558
...with anamorphic lenses 2.35.

933
01:11:56,854 --> 01:12:01,939
You can see this rack of focus here,
which is a wonderful way...

934
01:12:02,235 --> 01:12:05,568
...of shifting the attention
in the scene.

935
01:12:05,738 --> 01:12:10,277
But none of them were in
Dawson and Downey's room at 16.20.

936
01:12:10,493 --> 01:12:14,907
-Captain?
-The government will concede that.

937
01:12:15,081 --> 01:12:18,869
Then we will adjourn. You can
call your next witness tomorrow.

938
01:12:19,085 --> 01:12:20,871
All rise.

939
01:12:25,299 --> 01:12:28,086
To say something else
about anamorphic lenses:

940
01:12:28,302 --> 01:12:32,796
I had never made a film with
this aspect ratio, which is 2.35.

941
01:12:33,015 --> 01:12:37,304
And usually you use these kind
of lenses for epic-type films...

942
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:39,260
...with an epic nature...

943
01:12:39,480 --> 01:12:43,018
...and are a lot of exteriors
and have a broad scope to it.

944
01:12:43,276 --> 01:12:48,521
But Robert Richardson convinced me to
use anamorphic lenses for this film...

945
01:12:48,781 --> 01:12:51,614
...because he said it would
add extra scope...

946
01:12:51,826 --> 01:12:56,786
...to what would ordinarily just be
a contained, confined courtroom drama.

947
01:12:56,998 --> 01:13:01,617
And I'm glad he suggested it
and I'm glad I listened to him...

948
01:13:01,794 --> 01:13:06,663
...because I think it adds
a lot of depth to the film...

949
01:13:06,966 --> 01:13:10,800
...and it would have been a lot more
confining type of movie...

950
01:13:11,012 --> 01:13:13,048
...without these anamorphic lenses.

951
01:13:13,306 --> 01:13:16,469
Here's Christopher Guest,
who's a good friend of mine.

952
01:13:16,642 --> 01:13:20,055
And he's also a terrific actor,
and so versatile.

953
01:13:20,313 --> 01:13:23,476
I mean, you remember him
as Nigel Tufnel in Spinal Tap.

954
01:13:23,649 --> 01:13:28,313
He couldn't be playing a character
further away from that in this film.

955
01:13:28,529 --> 01:13:31,646
How long does it take before
muscles start burning sugar?

956
01:13:32,491 --> 01:13:38,077
-20 to 30 minutes.
-What made it faster with Santiago?

957
01:13:38,331 --> 01:13:43,451
-Some kind of poison.
-The witness is speculating!

958
01:13:43,669 --> 01:13:48,083
He is an expert medical witness.
It is not speculation.

959
01:13:48,341 --> 01:13:53,881
He is not a criminologist.
The medical facts are inconclusive.

960
01:13:54,096 --> 01:14:00,843
But I'm sure you don't mind
if we admit his opinion now.

961
01:14:01,020 --> 01:14:04,558
Not at all, sir.

962
01:14:04,774 --> 01:14:11,111
-Was Willy Santiago poisoned?
-Absolutely.

963
01:14:11,364 --> 01:14:15,198
But you know that the coroner's
report shows no trace of poison?

964
01:14:15,534 --> 01:14:17,866
-Yes, I am.
-How do you justify--

965
01:14:18,079 --> 01:14:23,619
There are dozens of toxins
which are virtually undetectable.

966
01:14:23,876 --> 01:14:30,213
The nature of the acidosis
is the compelling factor here.

967
01:14:32,218 --> 01:14:40,011
Could a person have a condition
that could speed up acidosis?

968
01:14:42,603 --> 01:14:46,391
-Is it possible?
-It's possible.

969
01:14:46,565 --> 01:14:50,023
What might
some of those conditions be?

970
01:14:50,236 --> 01:14:55,572
A coronary disorder
would make it more rapid.

971
01:14:55,783 --> 01:15:01,574
If I had a coronary condition and
someone stuffed a rag in my mouth...

972
01:15:01,747 --> 01:15:06,241
...would I still burn sugar
after the rag was taken out?

973
01:15:06,460 --> 01:15:09,247
If it was very serious.

974
01:15:09,422 --> 01:15:13,665
Could such a condition have
such mild initial symptoms...

975
01:15:13,926 --> 01:15:18,090
...that a routine examination
might not reveal them?

976
01:15:18,305 --> 01:15:23,595
-There would still be symptoms.
-What kind?

977
01:15:23,769 --> 01:15:28,763
Chest pains?
Shortness of breath? Fatigue?

978
01:15:28,983 --> 01:15:31,975
Of course.

979
01:15:36,157 --> 01:15:40,651
-Is this your signature?
-Yes, it is.

980
01:15:40,870 --> 01:15:45,159
This is an order for Santiago
to be put on restricted duty.

981
01:15:45,374 --> 01:15:49,117
Would you read your remarks?

982
01:15:49,336 --> 01:15:55,627
"Patient complains of chest pains,
shortness of breath, and fatigue."

983
01:15:55,801 --> 01:16:00,966
"Restricted from running distances
over five miles."

984
01:16:02,224 --> 01:16:06,593
Couldn't it have been a
heart condition, not a poison...

985
01:16:06,812 --> 01:16:10,805
...that caused the
rapid chemical reaction?

986
01:16:10,983 --> 01:16:14,146
-No.
-It's not possible?

987
01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:22,318
No. I examined Santiago thoroughly
and gave him a clean bill of health.

988
01:16:22,495 --> 01:16:29,207
So it had to be poison. If you
give a man a clean bill of health,

989
01:16:29,418 --> 01:16:33,661
and he later dies,
you'd be in trouble, right?

990
01:16:33,839 --> 01:16:38,173
-Object! Move to strike!
-Sustained.

991
01:16:38,344 --> 01:16:41,928
I've no more questions, your honor.

992
01:16:42,181 --> 01:16:48,347
You've been a doctor for 17 years.
You are Chief of Internal Medicine

993
01:16:48,562 --> 01:16:52,726
at a hospital
which has served 5,426 people.

994
01:16:52,942 --> 01:16:57,652
In your professional opinion,
was Santiago poisoned?

995
01:16:57,863 --> 01:17:02,448
We ask that the doctor's testimony
be stricken from the record.

996
01:17:02,701 --> 01:17:08,287
-The court should disregard it.
-The objection's overruled.

997
01:17:08,541 --> 01:17:13,376
We strenuously object,
and ask to confer with you

998
01:17:13,546 --> 01:17:16,709
before you rule on this objection.

999
01:17:16,882 --> 01:17:21,546
-The objection has been overruled.
-Move to reconsider.

1000
01:17:21,762 --> 01:17:27,052
The witness is an expert,
and the court will hear his opinion!

1001
01:17:31,397 --> 01:17:38,985
In your expert professional opinion,
was Willy Santiago poisoned?

1002
01:17:39,905 --> 01:17:44,820
-Yes.
-Thank you, sir. No more questions.

1003
01:17:45,077 --> 01:17:48,990
You may step down.

1004
01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:57,462
While we reserve the right to call
further witnesses, government rests.

1005
01:17:57,715 --> 01:18:04,507
We'll recess until Monday, when the
defense will call its first witness.

1006
01:18:15,774 --> 01:18:20,939
"I strenuously object."
Is that how it works?

1007
01:18:21,155 --> 01:18:25,148
"Overruled!"
"No, I strenuously object!"

1008
01:18:25,367 --> 01:18:29,610
-Oh, then I'll reconsider!
-I got it on the record.

1009
01:18:29,830 --> 01:18:34,745
You object once, so we can say
he's not a criminologist.

1010
01:18:34,960 --> 01:18:38,248
If you keep after it, it looks like
a bunch of fancy lawyer tricks.

1011
01:18:38,464 --> 01:18:41,627
It's the difference between
paper law and trial law!

1012
01:18:41,884 --> 01:18:47,299
-The judge called him an expert!
-Sam, she made a mistake.

1013
01:18:48,891 --> 01:18:53,351
I'll go call my wife.
I'll see you tonight.

1014
01:18:54,772 --> 01:18:59,311
-Why do you hate them?
-They beat up a weakling.

1015
01:18:59,485 --> 01:19:05,981
The rest is just coffeehouse crap.
They tortured a weaker kid!

1016
01:19:06,158 --> 01:19:10,902
They killed him,
because he couldn't run very fast!

1017
01:19:11,163 --> 01:19:16,658
-Everybody take the night off.
-I'm sorry...

1018
01:19:16,877 --> 01:19:22,873
We've been working 20 hours a day.
Go see your wife and daughter.

1019
01:19:23,092 --> 01:19:30,089
Jo, go and do... whatever you do
when you're not here.

1020
01:19:30,349 --> 01:19:36,219
It's Saturday tomorrow?
We start at ten.

1021
01:19:38,857 --> 01:19:42,896
Why do you like them so much?

1022
01:19:45,406 --> 01:19:51,948
'Cause they stand on a wall and say:
"Nothing's gonna hurt you tonight."

1023
01:19:56,709 --> 01:20:02,420
Don't worry about the doctor.
This trial starts Monday.

1024
01:20:17,396 --> 01:20:21,730
This scene coming up is, again,
to add more of the sexual tension...

1025
01:20:21,900 --> 01:20:24,141
...we have between these characters.

1026
01:20:24,403 --> 01:20:28,112
But, like I say, I love the fact
that we never made good on it.

1027
01:20:28,365 --> 01:20:31,983
We just kind of let this undercurrent
play throughout the film.

1028
01:20:32,244 --> 01:20:37,580
No, I'm just watching the ball game.
Come on in.

1029
01:20:51,263 --> 01:20:56,803
How would you feel
if I took you to dinner tonight?

1030
01:20:57,019 --> 01:20:59,931
Is this a date?

1031
01:21:00,105 --> 01:21:01,390
It sounded like you were
asking me out on a date.

1032
01:21:01,607 --> 01:21:05,020
-I wasn't.
-That's what it sounded like.

1033
01:21:06,153 --> 01:21:11,113
Do you like seafood?
I know a good seafood place.

1034
01:21:12,785 --> 01:21:15,652
We put this scene in this setting...

1035
01:21:15,913 --> 01:21:20,122
...because when we were shooting,
during the film in DC...

1036
01:21:20,334 --> 01:21:25,044
...I took the entire cast and crew
to a place called The Dancing Crab...

1037
01:21:25,297 --> 01:21:28,209
...and we watched a
Monday Night Football game...

1038
01:21:28,467 --> 01:21:32,631
...and we ate these Eastern crabs,
which they serve on this paper...

1039
01:21:32,846 --> 01:21:35,804
...with these mallets
and you break the crabs open.

1040
01:21:36,058 --> 01:21:39,642
So that gave birth
to the setting for this scene.

1041
01:21:41,939 --> 01:21:46,558
Why are you always
giving me your resume?

1042
01:21:48,737 --> 01:21:52,696
-I want you to think I'm good.
-I do.

1043
01:21:52,950 --> 01:21:56,363
No, you don't.

1044
01:21:58,497 --> 01:22:06,040
You're an exceptional lawyer.
The court members respond to you.

1045
01:22:06,255 --> 01:22:11,500
You'll convince them. Dawson and
Downey will owe you their lives.

1046
01:22:15,180 --> 01:22:17,842
Jo...

1047
01:22:18,725 --> 01:22:25,893
You've got to prepare for losing.
Ross's statement was all true.

1048
01:22:26,108 --> 01:22:33,571
Even if it mattered to the court,
I can't prove they were ordered.

1049
01:22:33,782 --> 01:22:41,621
All we have is the testimony of
two people accused of murder.

1050
01:22:42,875 --> 01:22:49,371
-We'll find Markinson.
-We're gonna lose, huge.

1051
01:22:52,718 --> 01:22:57,929
Corporal Barnes, Windward Barracks,
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

1052
01:22:58,265 --> 01:23:00,597
Noah Wyle is wonderful in this scene.

1053
01:23:00,893 --> 01:23:03,100
He's got a couple of moves...

1054
01:23:03,395 --> 01:23:07,229
...that are just
so subtle and so real.

1055
01:23:09,902 --> 01:23:16,068
-Have you ever received a Code Red?
-Yes I dropped my weapon.

1056
01:23:16,241 --> 01:23:23,079
It was over 100 degrees. My palms
were sweaty and I hadn't used resin.

1057
01:23:23,290 --> 01:23:27,909
-What happened?
-They threw a blanket over me.

1058
01:23:28,086 --> 01:23:33,547
They punched me on the arms
and poured glue on my hands.

1059
01:23:33,759 --> 01:23:38,594
And it worked.
I've never dropped my weapon since.

1060
01:23:38,764 --> 01:23:42,348
-Was Private Santiago ever late?
-Yes, sir.

1061
01:23:42,601 --> 01:23:45,308
-Was his barracks ever disorderly?
-Yes, sir.

1062
01:23:45,562 --> 01:23:47,848
-Did he fall back on runs?
-All the time.

1063
01:23:48,106 --> 01:23:53,146
Did he ever receive a Code Red
before September 6th?

1064
01:23:53,362 --> 01:23:54,647
No, sir.

1065
01:23:54,863 --> 01:23:56,774
-Never?
-No, sir.

1066
01:23:58,492 --> 01:24:05,079
You got a Code Red just for sweating.
Why not Santiago?

1067
01:24:06,583 --> 01:24:11,623
—Dawson wouldn't allow it, sir.
-Dawson wouldn't allow it.

1068
01:24:11,797 --> 01:24:17,463
The guys talked tough,
but they were too afraid of Dawson.

1069
01:24:17,636 --> 01:24:24,474
-Objection. Speculation.
-Did you want to punish Santiago?

1070
01:24:24,643 --> 01:24:30,104
-Why didn't you?
-Dawson would have kicked my butt.

1071
01:24:30,315 --> 01:24:33,978
Captain Ross will ask you
some questions.

1072
01:24:34,194 --> 01:24:41,191
Corporal Barnes, this is the Marine
Recruit Outline. Do you know it?

1073
01:24:41,410 --> 01:24:47,747
Have you read it? Good.
Look up "Code Reds", please.

1074
01:24:48,542 --> 01:24:53,161
—Sir?
-Just find the page with Code Reds.

1075
01:24:55,007 --> 01:25:00,502
"Code Red" is just a term we use
down at Gitmo. I don't know...

1076
01:25:00,721 --> 01:25:04,054
Oh. We're in luck, then!

1077
01:25:06,018 --> 01:25:10,512
"Standard Operating Procedure.
RSC, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba."

1078
01:25:10,689 --> 01:25:16,400
-Can we find "Code Red" in there?
-No, sir.

1079
01:25:16,653 --> 01:25:22,523
I'm a Marine. Is there no book,
no set of orders or regulations

1080
01:25:22,701 --> 01:25:27,070
telling me that one of my
duties is to perform Code Reds?

1081
01:25:27,873 --> 01:25:30,535
No book, sir.

1082
01:25:30,709 --> 01:25:31,949
No further questions.

1083
01:25:32,210 --> 01:25:34,166
This little tricky move here...

1084
01:25:34,379 --> 01:25:37,917
...I think, was an idea
that Tom had in rehearsal.

1085
01:25:38,216 --> 01:25:40,673
One of the great things
about a good actor...

1086
01:25:40,886 --> 01:25:45,175
...who's committed to his part, is he
starts thinking like the character.

1087
01:25:45,390 --> 01:25:48,553
This is a wonderful move
this lawyer would've made...

1088
01:25:48,727 --> 01:25:52,311
...to just take this book out
of the prosecutor's hands...

1089
01:25:52,564 --> 01:25:54,475
...and use it against him.

1090
01:25:58,737 --> 01:26:04,983
-I guess I just followed the crowd.
-No more questions.

1091
01:26:05,243 --> 01:26:08,906
Corporal Barnes, you may step down.

1092
01:26:14,419 --> 01:26:19,789
We do our final Kendrick review
tonight. I want to slam-dunk him.

1093
01:26:31,353 --> 01:26:35,596
-Hey, Luther.
-Admiral! How's the big case?

1094
01:26:35,816 --> 01:26:38,432
-Nose to the grindstone.
-No flies on you.

1095
01:26:38,652 --> 01:26:40,483
Rolling stone gathers no moss

1096
01:26:40,779 --> 01:26:43,361
Well, it ain't over
'till the fat lady sings.

1097
01:26:43,615 --> 01:26:49,827
-You can say that again.
-Not 'till the fat lady sings.

1098
01:26:50,038 --> 01:26:53,622
I walked into that one.

1099
01:27:04,845 --> 01:27:09,179
That was a nice light cue that
Bob Richardson came up with.

1100
01:27:09,391 --> 01:27:12,804
Just when the light shines
on Markinson...

1101
01:27:12,978 --> 01:27:14,309
...Kaffee becomes aware.

1102
01:27:14,646 --> 01:27:18,059
And the lives of two Marines are
in your hands.

1103
01:27:18,316 --> 01:27:22,810
I can't do anything about that,
so all I can do is help you.

1104
01:27:23,029 --> 01:27:25,270
-What do you know?
-I know everything.

1105
01:27:25,490 --> 01:27:27,651
-Was it a Code Red?
-Yes.

1106
01:27:27,909 --> 01:27:32,027
Did Kendrick give the order?
Did you witness it? Did you?

1107
01:27:32,289 --> 01:27:36,498
This sequence seems very simple
and seamless.

1108
01:27:36,710 --> 01:27:41,830
This scene took us four different days
in four different locations to shoot.

1109
01:27:42,174 --> 01:27:45,291
We had so many technical problems
making this work.

1110
01:27:45,510 --> 01:27:47,171
This part is in Los Angeles.

1111
01:27:47,429 --> 01:27:50,671
The earlier part you see in
the scene was shot in DC.

1112
01:27:53,018 --> 01:27:56,510
The car that was pulling
the picture car broke down.

1113
01:27:56,730 --> 01:27:58,721
The sound broke down.

1114
01:27:59,024 --> 01:28:01,811
We had lighting problems.
It was a nightmare.

1115
01:28:02,027 --> 01:28:06,396
When you watch it on film,
it looks like a simple, easy scene...

1116
01:28:06,615 --> 01:28:10,073
...that's put together in a very
kind of seamless way.

1117
01:28:11,077 --> 01:28:12,863
And I don't want immunity.

1118
01:28:13,079 --> 01:28:18,199
I'm not proud of what I have done,
nor of what I am doing.

1119
01:28:20,545 --> 01:28:22,410
-Where is he?
-The Downtown Lodge.

1120
01:28:22,714 --> 01:28:24,545
-I want him guarded.
-That's a good idea.

1121
01:28:25,217 --> 01:28:27,378
He also said-- Clearance code?

1122
01:28:28,386 --> 01:28:30,047
I don't have clearance, do you?

1123
01:28:30,263 --> 01:28:32,049
I need to secure a witness.

1124
01:28:32,224 --> 01:28:35,557
He also said Jessep's lying
about the transportation.

1125
01:28:35,727 --> 01:28:38,389
Jessep said first flight is 6:00 am.

1126
01:28:38,563 --> 01:28:41,896
Markinson says there was one seven
hours earlier.

1127
01:28:42,400 --> 01:28:44,891
That was impressive.
Did you hear that?

1128
01:28:45,111 --> 01:28:48,069
Isn't there a record of flights?

1129
01:28:48,365 --> 01:28:50,572
You need the Tower Chief's log.

1130
01:28:51,868 --> 01:28:55,907
-We're gonna win.
-Jo, we don't know anything yet.

1131
01:28:56,081 --> 01:28:59,289
You take care of Downey,
I'll talk to Ross.

1132
01:29:04,297 --> 01:29:05,503
Hi, Danny.

1133
01:29:06,258 --> 01:29:09,421
Nice work today.
The redirect on Barnes.

1134
01:29:10,095 --> 01:29:11,585
I have Markinson.

1135
01:29:12,973 --> 01:29:13,962
Where is he?

1136
01:29:14,182 --> 01:29:18,425
In a motel room in Northeast with
six marshals outside his door.

1137
01:29:19,104 --> 01:29:23,268
The transfer order is phony. And
Jessep lied about the first flight.

1138
01:29:23,525 --> 01:29:24,640
We're checking it.

1139
01:29:24,943 --> 01:29:27,104
-Can I get you something?
-A beer, please.

1140
01:29:27,279 --> 01:29:29,816
This is a big plot difference
from the play.

1141
01:29:30,031 --> 01:29:33,944
In the play, Markinson just sends
him a cryptic note...

1142
01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:37,402
...and kind of tells them to look
for this log book.

1143
01:29:37,622 --> 01:29:40,830
In the movie, we actually had
Markinson contact Kaffee...

1144
01:29:41,126 --> 01:29:44,163
...and tell him exactly what
was going on.

1145
01:29:44,462 --> 01:29:49,456
And you'll see as it develops in
the course of the rest of the film...

1146
01:29:50,468 --> 01:29:55,007
...there will be no reason for why the
character, as you'll see later on...

1147
01:29:55,307 --> 01:29:57,969
...commits suicide,
and then ultimately...

1148
01:29:58,184 --> 01:30:01,017
...would not tell them what
was really going on.

1149
01:30:01,229 --> 01:30:04,062
The whole idea of killing
yourself...

1150
01:30:04,482 --> 01:30:06,973
...is if you'd go to the lengths
of doing that...

1151
01:30:07,193 --> 01:30:11,983
...you would then let people know
exactly how this cover-up took place.

1152
01:30:12,324 --> 01:30:17,444
But in the play it was left to Kaffee
to figure out what the cover-up was...

1153
01:30:17,662 --> 01:30:20,153
...and it didn't really make sense.

1154
01:30:20,373 --> 01:30:25,037
But in the movie, we filled a lot
of holes and clarified that.

1155
01:30:29,007 --> 01:30:30,963
I've been so advised.

1156
01:30:35,180 --> 01:30:37,967
You got bullied into that courtroom.

1157
01:30:38,183 --> 01:30:42,017
By everyone. By Dawson.
By Galloway.

1158
01:30:42,187 --> 01:30:44,519
Shit, I practically dared you.

1159
01:30:45,690 --> 01:30:49,228
And you were bullied
by the memory of a dead lawyer.

1160
01:30:55,367 --> 01:30:58,484
You're a lousy fucking
softball player, Jack!

1161
01:30:59,746 --> 01:31:03,739
I remember when we shot this, Tom
said, "How should I say this line?"

1162
01:31:04,000 --> 01:31:07,492
"'You're a lousy fucking softball
player.' How should I say it?"

1163
01:31:07,712 --> 01:31:09,543
He said, "How should it sound?"

1164
01:31:09,714 --> 01:31:13,377
We rolled the camera, I'd say it
off camera and he'd repeat it.

1165
01:31:13,635 --> 01:31:16,126
That was one of the few times
he copied...

1166
01:31:16,388 --> 01:31:19,050
...something that I told him to do.

1167
01:31:20,517 --> 01:31:24,226
On all three reports you
put a rating of below average.

1168
01:31:27,565 --> 01:31:31,399
Yes. Private Santiago was
below average.

1169
01:31:31,611 --> 01:31:34,068
I won't trample on the man's grave.

1170
01:31:35,323 --> 01:31:40,113
We appreciate that, but you're under
oath and we need to hear the truth.

1171
01:31:40,412 --> 01:31:42,073
I'm aware of my oath.

1172
01:31:42,288 --> 01:31:47,032
These are the last reports you
signed for Corporal Dawson.

1173
01:31:47,252 --> 01:31:48,913
He received exceptional marks...

1174
01:31:49,129 --> 01:31:53,543
...but recently on June 9th he received
a rating of below average.

1175
01:31:53,758 --> 01:31:56,090
I'd like to discuss this report.

1176
01:31:56,302 --> 01:31:57,587
That would be fine.

1177
01:31:57,846 --> 01:32:01,259
Dawson's ranking after infantry
was perfect.

1178
01:32:01,558 --> 01:32:04,766
Records say half the class
was promoted.

1179
01:32:05,061 --> 01:32:08,428
This scene is so wonderfully
written...

1180
01:32:08,690 --> 01:32:11,773
...and wonderfully performed by
these two great actors.

1181
01:32:13,069 --> 01:32:15,651
It really shows too,
again like I said...

1182
01:32:15,947 --> 01:32:20,111
...two really smart people going at
each other in a chess match.

1183
01:32:21,661 --> 01:32:24,573
And the superior intellect,
which is Kaffee...

1184
01:32:24,789 --> 01:32:28,281
...is able to get under
Kendrick's skin.

1185
01:32:29,127 --> 01:32:30,708
Yes, I do.

1186
01:32:30,962 --> 01:32:33,203
Did you report Private Bell?

1187
01:32:35,133 --> 01:32:40,173
I have two books, the Marine Code of
Conduct and the King James Bible.

1188
01:32:40,472 --> 01:32:44,306
The only authorities I am aware of
are Colonel Jessep...

1189
01:32:44,601 --> 01:32:46,387
...and the Lord our God.

1190
01:32:47,312 --> 01:32:52,477
I can have the record reflect that
you do not acknowledge this court.

1191
01:32:52,692 --> 01:32:55,604
-Objection, argumentative.
-Sustained.

1192
01:32:55,820 --> 01:32:57,811
Watch yourself, counsellor.

1193
01:32:58,031 --> 01:33:00,522
Did you report Private Bell to your
superiors?

1194
01:33:00,992 --> 01:33:03,699
I thought highly of Bell...

1195
01:33:03,912 --> 01:33:06,654
...and didn't want to see
him formally charged.

1196
01:33:07,707 --> 01:33:10,699
You preferred it be handled
within the unit?

1197
01:33:12,420 --> 01:33:14,331
Yes, I most certainly did.

1198
01:33:15,632 --> 01:33:17,497
Do you know what a Code Red is?

1199
01:33:17,717 --> 01:33:18,752
Yes, I do.

1200
01:33:19,010 --> 01:33:22,047
-Have you ever ordered one?
-No, I have not.

1201
01:33:22,514 --> 01:33:25,426
Did you order Dawson and others
to see that Bell received...

1202
01:33:25,683 --> 01:33:28,425
...no food or drink, except water...

1203
01:33:28,686 --> 01:33:30,722
...for a period of seven days?

1204
01:33:31,022 --> 01:33:33,013
That's a distortion of the truth.

1205
01:33:33,233 --> 01:33:35,189
Bell was on barracks restriction.

1206
01:33:35,443 --> 01:33:37,274
He was given water and vitamins...

1207
01:33:37,529 --> 01:33:40,862
...and I can assure you, at no time...

1208
01:33:41,157 --> 01:33:42,647
...was his health in danger.

1209
01:33:42,867 --> 01:33:45,404
I'm sure it was lovely for Bell.

1210
01:33:45,662 --> 01:33:48,199
But you ordered the barracks
restriction, right?

1211
01:33:48,414 --> 01:33:50,871
You ordered the denial of food?

1212
01:33:51,376 --> 01:33:52,411
Yes, I did.

1213
01:33:52,669 --> 01:33:56,287
Would this from of discipline
be considered a Code Red?

1214
01:33:58,049 --> 01:33:59,038
No.

1215
01:33:59,259 --> 01:34:04,219
If I called the other 478 marines at
Guantanamo, would they say it was?

1216
01:34:04,430 --> 01:34:07,092
The witness can't testify as to what...

1217
01:34:07,308 --> 01:34:09,173
...478 other men would say.

1218
01:34:09,394 --> 01:34:13,103
We object to this questioning
as argumentative...

1219
01:34:13,398 --> 01:34:15,559
...and irrelevant badgering of
the witness.

1220
01:34:15,775 --> 01:34:18,232
The objection is sustained,
Lieutenant Kaffee.

1221
01:34:18,486 --> 01:34:23,606
I remind you that you're questioning
an officer with an impeccable record.

1222
01:34:23,908 --> 01:34:25,273
Thank you, your honor.

1223
01:34:26,286 --> 01:34:29,904
Was Dawson rated low
on the last report...

1224
01:34:30,123 --> 01:34:32,739
...because he'd been sneaking food
to Bell?

1225
01:34:32,917 --> 01:34:35,249
-Object.
-Not so fast.

1226
01:34:35,420 --> 01:34:36,409
Lieutenant?

1227
01:34:37,922 --> 01:34:41,756
Corporal Dawson was given a below
average rating...

1228
01:34:42,594 --> 01:34:45,210
...because he had committed a crime.

1229
01:34:45,763 --> 01:34:48,800
Crime? What crime did he commit?

1230
01:34:50,351 --> 01:34:52,137
Lieutenant Kendrick?

1231
01:34:52,353 --> 01:34:56,596
Dawson brought a hungry guy
some food.

1232
01:34:56,816 --> 01:34:59,102
What crime did he commit?

1233
01:35:00,278 --> 01:35:01,768
He disobeyed an order.

1234
01:35:02,030 --> 01:35:04,612
Because he exercised
his values...

1235
01:35:04,824 --> 01:35:07,361
...about the welfare of a marine...

1236
01:35:07,619 --> 01:35:09,610
...that conflicted with your orders...

1237
01:35:09,829 --> 01:35:11,160
...he was punished?

1238
01:35:11,456 --> 01:35:14,744
Corporal Dawson disobeyed an order.

1239
01:35:14,959 --> 01:35:17,166
It wasn't a real order, was it?

1240
01:35:17,378 --> 01:35:19,460
After all, it's peace time.

1241
01:35:19,672 --> 01:35:22,960
He wasn't securing a hill, or
advancing on a beach.

1242
01:35:23,176 --> 01:35:27,465
Surely a marine of
Dawson's intelligence...

1243
01:35:27,680 --> 01:35:30,797
...can determine which are important
orders...

1244
01:35:31,059 --> 01:35:34,551
...and which orders might be
morally questionable?

1245
01:35:36,022 --> 01:35:39,310
Lieutenant Kendrick? Can he?

1246
01:35:40,151 --> 01:35:43,359
Can Dawson determine which orders
he's going to follow?

1247
01:35:43,655 --> 01:35:45,145
No, he cannot.

1248
01:35:45,365 --> 01:35:47,902
A lesson he learned after Bell?

1249
01:35:48,159 --> 01:35:49,274
I would think so.

1250
01:35:49,494 --> 01:35:50,529
You know so, don't you?

1251
01:35:50,828 --> 01:35:52,659
-Object!
-Sustained.

1252
01:35:55,208 --> 01:35:58,200
Lieutenant Kendrick,
one final question.

1253
01:35:59,003 --> 01:36:02,211
If you ordered Dawson to give
Santiago a Code Red--

1254
01:36:02,507 --> 01:36:03,667
I ordered those men--!

1255
01:36:03,925 --> 01:36:05,506
Is it reasonable to believe...

1256
01:36:05,718 --> 01:36:08,710
-...he would disobey you again?
-Don't answer that!

1257
01:36:09,514 --> 01:36:11,379
You don't have to.
I'm through.

1258
01:36:12,100 --> 01:36:15,684
Did you order Corporal Dawson
and Private Downey...

1259
01:36:15,937 --> 01:36:19,100
...to give Santiago a Code Red?

1260
01:36:20,358 --> 01:36:21,598
Lieutenant Kendrick?

1261
01:36:21,859 --> 01:36:24,350
-No, I did not.
-Thank you.

1262
01:36:28,449 --> 01:36:29,734
What's the word?

1263
01:36:31,536 --> 01:36:33,197
I got the log from that night.

1264
01:36:33,413 --> 01:36:37,031
Jessep's telling the truth. 6:00 am.
flight was the first plane out.

1265
01:36:37,250 --> 01:36:39,206
Let me see this.

1266
01:36:41,838 --> 01:36:43,703
And you'll see in this scene...

1267
01:36:44,465 --> 01:36:48,583
...the reason why Markinson
is able to give...

1268
01:36:48,886 --> 01:36:52,424
...all this information to Kaffee
about the fact that the log books...

1269
01:36:52,640 --> 01:36:55,928
...could've been doctored,
and that this cover-up ensued...

1270
01:36:56,227 --> 01:36:59,765
...is because he knows he won't be
around much longer.

1271
01:36:59,981 --> 01:37:04,145
This was something we didn't have
in the play, but we put in the movie.

1272
01:37:07,905 --> 01:37:11,068
Then why isn't it in the log?

1273
01:37:12,994 --> 01:37:16,862
-Jessep.
-He fixed the logbook?

1274
01:37:19,083 --> 01:37:22,746
I can prove that a plane landed.

1275
01:37:22,920 --> 01:37:24,581
I'll get the log from Andrews.

1276
01:37:25,423 --> 01:37:30,258
-You won't find anything.
-He can make a flight disappear?

1277
01:37:30,803 --> 01:37:34,591
Jessep is about to join the NSC.

1278
01:37:34,807 --> 01:37:38,891
He knows how to sidestep land mines.

1279
01:37:39,103 --> 01:37:44,188
-He can't sidestep you.
-You still want me to witness?

1280
01:37:44,442 --> 01:37:47,104
Thursday morning, 10:00.

1281
01:37:51,949 --> 01:37:55,441
Someone must know about the flight.
Ground crew, someone?

1282
01:37:55,703 --> 01:37:57,159
This isn't TWA.

1283
01:37:57,455 --> 01:38:01,789
Do you know how many planes
take off and land every day?

1284
01:38:02,001 --> 01:38:06,165
-No one will remember it.
-Well, how do you know--

1285
01:38:06,464 --> 01:38:08,625
Forget the flight. Forget the flight.

1286
01:38:08,841 --> 01:38:13,631
Markinson will testify that
the transfer was forged.

1287
01:38:13,846 --> 01:38:17,555
That and Downey's testimony
will be enough.

1288
01:38:23,314 --> 01:38:27,182
Why did you go
into Santiago's room that night?

1289
01:38:27,443 --> 01:38:30,150
To give him a Code Red.

1290
01:38:30,655 --> 01:38:32,566
Why did you do that?

1291
01:38:33,157 --> 01:38:36,649
I was ordered to give him
a Code Red...

1292
01:38:36,828 --> 01:38:40,366
...by Lieutenant
Jonathan James Kendrick.

1293
01:38:41,541 --> 01:38:45,580
You're gonna do fine.

1294
01:38:45,837 --> 01:38:49,329
Can we rejoin the platoon soon?

1295
01:38:49,549 --> 01:38:51,505
Absolutely.

1296
01:38:54,720 --> 01:38:59,054
Remember the order of the
questions? And use small words.

1297
01:39:00,351 --> 01:39:02,091
-Just go slow.
-I'm gonna go slow.

1298
01:39:02,353 --> 01:39:06,016
Okay. And get him off
as fast as you can.

1299
01:39:06,190 --> 01:39:08,476
What? It's gonna be fine.

1300
01:39:11,571 --> 01:39:14,108
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Santiago...

1301
01:39:14,365 --> 01:39:17,232
...l was William's executive officer.

1302
01:39:17,493 --> 01:39:20,860
I knew your son only by name.

1303
01:39:21,998 --> 01:39:26,708
Soon, the trial of the two men
who killed him will be over...

1304
01:39:26,878 --> 01:39:30,496
...and the jury will try
to offer you...

1305
01:39:30,715 --> 01:39:33,206
...an explanation for his death.

1306
01:39:33,426 --> 01:39:36,714
I've done what I can
to bring the truth to light.

1307
01:39:37,638 --> 01:39:39,219
The truth is this:

1308
01:39:39,432 --> 01:39:44,552
Your son is dead because
I wasn't strong enough to stop it.

1309
01:39:45,021 --> 01:39:48,388
Always, Lieutenant Colonel
Matthew Markinson...

1310
01:39:48,608 --> 01:39:50,894
...United States Marine Corps.

1311
01:39:54,739 --> 01:39:59,324
Now we overlap the sound of the gun
with the thunder.

1312
01:39:59,911 --> 01:40:04,746
Why did you go to Santiago's room
on the night of September 6th?

1313
01:40:06,042 --> 01:40:10,331
A Code Red was ordered
by Platoon Commander Kendrick.

1314
01:40:10,588 --> 01:40:14,456
Thank you. Your witness.

1315
01:40:20,431 --> 01:40:25,596
According to the log,
you were at post 39 until 16.00.

1316
01:40:26,103 --> 01:40:28,970
I'm sure it is.
They keep that log pretty good.

1317
01:40:29,190 --> 01:40:32,557
How far is post 39 from barracks?

1318
01:40:32,777 --> 01:40:36,190
It's a ways, sir. It's a hike.

1319
01:40:36,447 --> 01:40:38,984
About how far by jeep?

1320
01:40:40,368 --> 01:40:42,359
About 10—15 minutes, sir.

1321
01:40:42,703 --> 01:40:46,821
-Ever had to walk it?
-Yes, sir, that day.

1322
01:40:47,083 --> 01:40:51,622
The pick-up private...
we call him that...

1323
01:40:51,796 --> 01:40:55,709
...also 'cause he can get the girls.

1324
01:40:55,967 --> 01:40:59,175
He got a flat tyre at post 39...

1325
01:40:59,387 --> 01:41:03,005
...so we had to jog back to barracks.

1326
01:41:03,224 --> 01:41:06,307
If it's 10-15 minutes by jeep...

1327
01:41:06,477 --> 01:41:09,810
...it must be an hour on foot, right?

1328
01:41:10,022 --> 01:41:13,105
We did it in 45 minutes, sir.

1329
01:41:13,317 --> 01:41:14,807
Notbad.

1330
01:41:16,153 --> 01:41:19,737
You've said your assault on Santiago...

1331
01:41:19,991 --> 01:41:22,232
...was ordered by Lt. Kendrick...

1332
01:41:22,702 --> 01:41:27,366
...in your room at 16:20, right?

1333
01:41:27,665 --> 01:41:28,825
Yes, sir.

1334
01:41:29,000 --> 01:41:33,118
You said weren't back before 16:45.

1335
01:41:35,715 --> 01:41:38,548
If you weren't back until 16:45...

1336
01:41:38,759 --> 01:41:42,126
...how could you be in your room at
16:20?

1337
01:41:42,680 --> 01:41:45,763
Well, sir, there was a blowout...

1338
01:41:46,017 --> 01:41:50,761
Did you actually hear
Lt. Kendrick order a Code Red?

1339
01:41:51,022 --> 01:41:52,353
Hal said--

1340
01:41:52,565 --> 01:41:56,854
Did you actually hear the order?

1341
01:41:58,029 --> 01:42:03,069
-No, sir.
-I'd like to request a recess.

1342
01:42:03,284 --> 01:42:06,242
-The witness has rights!
-He has been read his rights.

1343
01:42:06,454 --> 01:42:07,864
The question will be repeated.

1344
01:42:08,164 --> 01:42:13,249
Why did you go to Santiago's room?
Did Dawson tell you to?

1345
01:42:13,544 --> 01:42:15,375
Don't look at him!

1346
01:42:15,588 --> 01:42:18,455
Answer the captain's question.

1347
01:42:20,468 --> 01:42:25,462
Yes. I was given an order
by Corporal Dawson...

1348
01:42:25,723 --> 01:42:27,554
...and I followed it.

1349
01:42:39,570 --> 01:42:43,233
This next part of the film was the most
important part of the film.

1350
01:42:43,449 --> 01:42:47,237
The sequence coming up later...

1351
01:42:47,411 --> 01:42:50,403
...with Kevin Pollak and Tom Cruise...

1352
01:42:50,581 --> 01:42:53,789
...is the most crucial scene
in the film.

1353
01:42:56,253 --> 01:43:00,337
People often talk about
the courtroom scene with Nicholson...

1354
01:43:00,591 --> 01:43:03,924
...and his speech, which is
wonderful and very powerful.

1355
01:43:04,136 --> 01:43:07,424
But this whole sequence
is all about...

1356
01:43:09,266 --> 01:43:10,802
...Tom Cruise's character, Kaffee...

1357
01:43:11,102 --> 01:43:14,936
...making a final transition into
becoming his own man...

1358
01:43:17,274 --> 01:43:22,359
...and starting to have the confidence
to get out from under the shadow...

1359
01:43:22,613 --> 01:43:24,228
...of his famous father.

1360
01:43:24,824 --> 01:43:29,363
And this actually was the scene
that was most important to me...

1361
01:43:29,620 --> 01:43:31,611
...when we were shooting it.

1362
01:43:31,831 --> 01:43:35,619
Because it resonated most
personally for me...

1363
01:43:35,793 --> 01:43:38,751
...and was the reason I wanted
to do the film.

1364
01:43:38,963 --> 01:43:44,048
She's gonna make coffee?
That's nice.

1365
01:43:48,139 --> 01:43:51,006
Downey wasn't in his room.

1366
01:43:51,684 --> 01:43:53,174
He wasn't even there.

1367
01:43:54,478 --> 01:43:59,313
That was important information,
don't you think?

1368
01:44:00,025 --> 01:44:04,485
Danny, it was a setback.
And I'm sorry.

1369
01:44:04,822 --> 01:44:07,689
We fix it, and move on to Markinson.

1370
01:44:09,034 --> 01:44:10,649
Markinson's dead.

1371
01:44:16,500 --> 01:44:20,789
You really got to hand it
to those marshals.

1372
01:44:21,005 --> 01:44:25,499
He didn't hang himself by his laces,
or slash himself with a butter knife.

1373
01:44:25,718 --> 01:44:27,504
This guy...

1374
01:44:29,597 --> 01:44:34,717
...got into full dress uniform,
drew a nickel-plated pistol...

1375
01:44:35,603 --> 01:44:38,345
...and fired a bullet into his mouth.

1376
01:44:42,610 --> 01:44:47,195
Since we're out of witnesses,
I thought I'd drink a little.

1377
01:44:47,406 --> 01:44:49,613
I still think we can win.

1378
01:44:49,867 --> 01:44:52,529
Maybe you should drink a little.

1379
01:44:52,703 --> 01:44:57,538
In the morning,
we'll ask for 24 hours delay.

1380
01:44:57,708 --> 01:45:00,825
—Why?
-To subpoena Colonel Jessep.

1381
01:45:01,962 --> 01:45:03,372
What?

1382
01:45:05,090 --> 01:45:09,333
No, Jo! Your passion is compelling,
but useless.

1383
01:45:09,553 --> 01:45:12,260
Louden Downey
needed a trial lawyer today.

1384
01:45:15,726 --> 01:45:20,060
You chicken shit!
You just want an excuse to give up.

1385
01:45:21,232 --> 01:45:23,223
It's over!

1386
01:45:23,442 --> 01:45:28,357
Why did you ask Jessep
for the transfer order?

1387
01:45:28,572 --> 01:45:33,657
-I wanted it!
-You could have got it anywhere.

1388
01:45:34,912 --> 01:45:39,451
You just wanted
to see Jessep's reaction.

1389
01:45:39,667 --> 01:45:44,787
Your instinct was right.
Now let's call Jessep, and end this.

1390
01:45:45,798 --> 01:45:49,416
What possible good would that do?

1391
01:45:50,177 --> 01:45:52,088
He ordered the Code Red.

1392
01:45:52,263 --> 01:45:54,925
He did? That's great!

1393
01:45:55,099 --> 01:45:58,591
And of course, you have proof?

1394
01:45:59,520 --> 01:46:02,933
You missed that day at Law School?

1395
01:46:03,148 --> 01:46:05,309
Get it from him.

1396
01:46:05,526 --> 01:46:09,439
We get it from him!
Yes, no problem.

1397
01:46:09,655 --> 01:46:12,488
This was a very tough sequence
for Tom to do...

1398
01:46:12,908 --> 01:46:16,116
...to play drunk and to play insane...

1399
01:46:17,204 --> 01:46:22,289
...and have the dramatic power
and capture the humor of it.

1400
01:46:22,501 --> 01:46:25,288
I worked very closely
with him on this sequence.

1401
01:46:25,546 --> 01:46:27,628
I acted it out for him many times.

1402
01:46:27,840 --> 01:46:30,456
He took from me and made it his own.

1403
01:46:30,676 --> 01:46:34,464
I think he's absolutely
wonderful in this scene.

1404
01:46:34,680 --> 01:46:37,922
Kaffee can expect a career...

1405
01:46:38,142 --> 01:46:43,227
...teaching typewriter
maintenance at a women's school!

1406
01:46:43,522 --> 01:46:45,478
Thank you for playing...

1407
01:46:45,649 --> 01:46:49,517
..."Follow the Advice of
the Galactically Stupid."

1408
01:47:11,383 --> 01:47:14,341
I'm sorry I lost you
your steak knives.

1409
01:47:31,528 --> 01:47:33,268
Stop cleaning up.

1410
01:47:37,117 --> 01:47:40,405
Sam, stop cleaning up.

1411
01:47:48,921 --> 01:47:51,537
—You want a drink?
-Yeah.

1412
01:48:10,025 --> 01:48:12,937
-Is your father proud of you?
-Don't do this to yourself.

1413
01:48:13,237 --> 01:48:14,898
I'll bet he is.

1414
01:48:15,823 --> 01:48:18,906
I'll bet he bores the shit out of
neighbors and relatives:

1415
01:48:19,159 --> 01:48:21,901
"Sam's made Law Review.

1416
01:48:22,121 --> 01:48:26,410
He's got a big case.
He's making an argument."

1417
01:48:32,297 --> 01:48:36,586
My father would have enjoyed
seeing me graduate from law school.

1418
01:48:40,139 --> 01:48:44,098
He would have liked that a lot.

1419
01:48:45,436 --> 01:48:50,601
I wrote a paper about your father
in college.

1420
01:48:51,483 --> 01:48:56,102
-One of the best trial lawyers.
-Yes, he was.

1421
01:48:57,114 --> 01:49:02,108
But if I were Dawson and Downey,
and had to choose you or him...

1422
01:49:02,327 --> 01:49:05,364
...I'd choose you any day.

1423
01:49:05,622 --> 01:49:08,614
You should have seen yourself
thunder away at Kendrick.

1424
01:49:12,004 --> 01:49:15,963
-Would you put Jessep on the stand?
-No.

1425
01:49:17,342 --> 01:49:21,301
-Do you think my father would?
-With the evidence we have?

1426
01:49:22,639 --> 01:49:24,129
Not in a million years.

1427
01:49:25,601 --> 01:49:28,889
But we can't get around this:

1428
01:49:29,146 --> 01:49:34,231
Neither Lionel Kaffee nor
Sam Weinberg are lead counsel here.

1429
01:49:36,987 --> 01:49:40,400
So there's really only one question:
What would you do?

1430
01:49:47,122 --> 01:49:50,330
This is the pivotal moment
in the whole film.

1431
01:49:56,882 --> 01:50:01,000
And just at the moment that he's
coming into his own as a man...

1432
01:50:01,178 --> 01:50:05,171
...the plot in the film turns
on this moment.

1433
01:50:05,682 --> 01:50:08,264
I'm gonna put Jessep on the stand!

1434
01:50:28,914 --> 01:50:33,283
-What do you suggest?
-Use the phony transfer order.

1435
01:50:33,544 --> 01:50:38,584
-Our witness to that is dead.
-A problem, to a lesser attorney!

1436
01:50:39,424 --> 01:50:44,544
Last night he was swimming in
Jack Daniels, today he's Superman!

1437
01:50:44,805 --> 01:50:49,469
I'm getting my second wind.
Sit down, both of you.

1438
01:50:49,726 --> 01:50:53,719
Jessep told Kendrick
to order a Code Red.

1439
01:50:53,897 --> 01:50:58,812
For us to win, Jessep has to
say he gave the order.

1440
01:50:59,903 --> 01:51:03,111
-And you can get him to say that?
-I think he wants to say it!

1441
01:51:03,323 --> 01:51:06,281
I think he's pissed off that he
has to hide.

1442
01:51:06,577 --> 01:51:09,068
He made a decision, and that's it!

1443
01:51:09,329 --> 01:51:12,571
He eats breakfast 300 yards from...

1444
01:51:12,749 --> 01:51:15,957
...the 4,000 Cubans trained to kill him.

1445
01:51:17,087 --> 01:51:20,921
That was an idea that Tom had,
to try to imitate Jessep.

1446
01:51:21,133 --> 01:51:26,093
We were all running around the set
doing Jack Nicholson impersonations.

1447
01:51:26,305 --> 01:51:28,967
Tom figured,
"Well, I'll try my hand at it."

1448
01:51:29,224 --> 01:51:31,510
And he incorporated it
in that moment.

1449
01:51:31,977 --> 01:51:36,266
I need my bat. I think better with it.
Where's my bat?

1450
01:51:36,481 --> 01:51:39,518
-I put it in the closet.
-You put it in the closet?

1451
01:51:39,776 --> 01:51:40,936
I was tripping on it.

1452
01:51:41,153 --> 01:51:43,769
Don't ever put that bat in the closet.

1453
01:51:45,866 --> 01:51:48,608
Essentially, at this point
in the movie...

1454
01:51:48,827 --> 01:51:52,945
...Kaffee's character arc and Tom's
character arc is finished.

1455
01:51:53,248 --> 01:51:57,241
I mean, he has come to grips
with who he is...

1456
01:51:57,461 --> 01:52:00,123
...and who he is in relationship
to his father.

1457
01:52:00,339 --> 01:52:04,457
Now we see the last part of
this film play out as...

1458
01:52:05,844 --> 01:52:09,462
..."Now how is he gonna go about
winning this case?

1459
01:52:09,681 --> 01:52:11,512
How will he defeat Jessep?"

1460
01:52:11,808 --> 01:52:13,673
So everything from here
on becomes...

1461
01:52:14,519 --> 01:52:19,354
...the big chase scene that we would
have in other kinds of movies.

1462
01:52:19,650 --> 01:52:24,144
In an action picture.
We have this chase here for...

1463
01:52:25,697 --> 01:52:30,407
...the prize, which is to defeat
Jessep and win the case.

1464
01:52:30,702 --> 01:52:32,818
I need you to do something.

1465
01:52:36,375 --> 01:52:37,660
What's going on?

1466
01:52:37,876 --> 01:52:42,711
When he looks in the closet
and notices his clothes lined up...

1467
01:52:43,006 --> 01:52:45,088
...is the thing I was talking
about earlier.

1468
01:52:45,342 --> 01:52:50,507
Something we didn't have in the play,
that we used in the movie...

1469
01:52:50,847 --> 01:52:54,886
...was his realization that Santiago...

1470
01:52:55,602 --> 01:52:59,311
...couldn't have been set to
leave Cuba...

1471
01:52:59,523 --> 01:53:01,684
...because his clothes weren't packed.

1472
01:53:01,900 --> 01:53:05,358
We find out later he also had not
made any phone calls.

1473
01:53:06,238 --> 01:53:11,358
This is a ploy that you see
Kaffee will use against Jessep.

1474
01:53:11,576 --> 01:53:13,737
This did not exist in the play.

1475
01:53:23,213 --> 01:53:26,376
How are you feeling?

1476
01:53:26,591 --> 01:53:31,585
I think Jessep
will have his hands full.

1477
01:53:32,889 --> 01:53:37,223
Listen, Danny,
when you're out there today,

1478
01:53:37,394 --> 01:53:44,232
if you feel like
he's not going to say it,

1479
01:53:44,443 --> 01:53:50,063
don't go for it.
You could get into trouble.

1480
01:53:50,240 --> 01:53:54,574
I'm with Internal Affairs. I know.

1481
01:53:54,995 --> 01:54:00,911
You're not suggesting that I
back off a material witness?

1482
01:54:01,376 --> 01:54:04,163
If you can't get him... yeah.

1483
01:54:06,757 --> 01:54:11,296
All rise!

1484
01:54:13,263 --> 01:54:15,925
-Where's Sam?
-On his way.

1485
01:54:21,938 --> 01:54:25,931
-Where is he?
-Don't worry.

1486
01:54:26,151 --> 01:54:30,690
Lieutenant! Call your witness.

1487
01:54:35,285 --> 01:54:39,949
Defense calls Colonel Nathan Jessep.

1488
01:54:54,805 --> 01:54:57,547
Raise your right hand, please.

1489
01:54:57,808 --> 01:55:04,304
Will you tell the truth, the whole
truth, and nothing but the truth?

1490
01:55:04,731 --> 01:55:09,145
-Yes.
-Have a seat please, sir.

1491
01:55:09,319 --> 01:55:12,652
State your name,
rank and current billet.

1492
01:55:13,240 --> 01:55:18,985
Colonel Jessep, Commanding Officer,
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

1493
01:55:20,372 --> 01:55:23,990
He's not here.

1494
01:55:27,462 --> 01:55:31,080
When you learned
of Santiago's letter,

1495
01:55:31,341 --> 01:55:36,756
you had a meeting
with your senior officers, correct?

1496
01:55:37,180 --> 01:55:45,053
Platoon Commander Kendrick,
and Lt. Colonel Markinson.

1497
01:55:45,564 --> 01:55:49,682
And Markinson is now dead,
is that right?

1498
01:55:50,110 --> 01:55:57,278
—What is the counsellor implying?
-Just that Markinson is not alive.

1499
01:55:57,784 --> 01:56:01,072
The colonel
doesn't need to confirm that.

1500
01:56:01,538 --> 01:56:06,874
He may not be aware that Markinson
took his own life two days ago.

1501
01:56:07,043 --> 01:56:11,036
The witness, the court
and now the jury are aware.

1502
01:56:11,548 --> 01:56:16,417
We thank you.
Move on, Lieutenant.

1503
01:56:18,889 --> 01:56:22,006
You gave Kendrick an order, right?

1504
01:56:22,309 --> 01:56:26,393
This little ploy here, where Sam
Weinberg comes with the two airmen...

1505
01:56:26,605 --> 01:56:31,395
...was something also that was not
in the play that we put in the film.

1506
01:56:31,610 --> 01:56:35,819
You'll see how it comes into play
later as a tremendous bluff...

1507
01:56:36,072 --> 01:56:39,564
...that Kaffee does to get
Jessep to open up...

1508
01:56:39,826 --> 01:56:43,614
...and admit that he ordered
the Code Red.

1509
01:56:48,418 --> 01:56:52,457
This is the order
that you and Markinson signed

1510
01:56:52,672 --> 01:56:56,915
for Santiago to fly out
at six the next morning.

1511
01:56:57,135 --> 01:57:02,175
-Was that the first flight?
-Yes, it was.

1512
01:57:06,144 --> 01:57:09,477
You flew here today, didn't you?

1513
01:57:09,689 --> 01:57:14,183
-You're wearing your dress uniform.
-As are you.

1514
01:57:14,694 --> 01:57:19,063
—Did you wear it on the plane?
-Is this relevant?

1515
01:57:19,282 --> 01:57:23,150
I'm asking the court
for a little latitude.

1516
01:57:23,703 --> 01:57:27,446
A very little latitude.

1517
01:57:27,958 --> 01:57:32,702
-I wore utilities on the plane.
-You brought the uniform?

1518
01:57:33,171 --> 01:57:38,791
Toothbrush, shaving kit, underwear?
Is his underwear a state secret?

1519
01:57:39,010 --> 01:57:44,221
You'd better get somewhere fast
with this, Lieutenant!

1520
01:57:45,141 --> 01:57:51,478
I brought a change of clothes
and some personal items.

1521
01:57:51,648 --> 01:57:59,316
After Dawson and Downey's arrest,
Santiago's room was inventoried.

1522
01:57:59,531 --> 01:58:04,321
Four pairs of camouflage pants,
three khaki shirts, boots.

1523
01:58:04,494 --> 01:58:09,363
-Four pairs of socks...
-Is there any question coming?

1524
01:58:09,874 --> 01:58:15,494
-Lieutenant, state your question.
-Why hadn't Santiago packed?

1525
01:58:18,341 --> 01:58:25,338
We'll get back to that. This is a
record of phone calls from the base.

1526
01:58:25,557 --> 01:58:31,143
You've recently made three calls.
Do you recognize the numbers?

1527
01:58:31,646 --> 01:58:37,357
I called Colonel Fitzhughes
to tell him I'd be in town.

1528
01:58:37,527 --> 01:58:43,363
The second was to arrange a
meeting with Congressman Richman.

1529
01:58:43,575 --> 01:58:48,695
-And the third was to my sister.
-Why did you call her?

1530
01:58:48,913 --> 01:58:51,871
-I invited her to dinner tonight.
-Your honor.

1531
01:58:52,083 --> 01:58:53,368
I'll put a stop to this.

1532
01:58:53,668 --> 01:58:57,707
These are the records
for September 6th.

1533
01:58:57,881 --> 01:59:02,796
And these are the 14 letters
Santiago wrote in nine months,

1534
01:59:03,053 --> 01:59:06,216
begging for a transfer.

1535
01:59:06,431 --> 01:59:11,175
But when he finally got it,

1536
01:59:11,394 --> 01:59:15,558
how many people did he call?
Zero! Nobody.

1537
01:59:16,066 --> 01:59:22,778
Not one call to his parents or
a friend, saying he was coming.

1538
01:59:23,281 --> 01:59:29,277
He was asleep at midnight, and you
say he had a flight in six hours.

1539
01:59:29,746 --> 01:59:36,083
Yet everything he owned was
in his closet or his footlocker.

1540
01:59:36,294 --> 01:59:39,457
For one day, you packed
and made three calls.

1541
01:59:39,964 --> 01:59:45,834
Santiago was leaving
for the rest of his life.

1542
01:59:46,096 --> 01:59:51,511
And he hadn't called a soul,
or packed a thing.

1543
01:59:54,771 --> 01:59:58,605
Can you explain that?

1544
01:59:59,109 --> 02:00:04,320
There was no transfer order,
was there?

1545
02:00:04,614 --> 02:00:09,950
Objection! Lt. Kaffee is trying to
smear a high-ranking officer

1546
02:00:10,120 --> 02:00:14,489
hoping to suggest impropriety
and win points.

1547
02:00:14,749 --> 02:00:21,871
I recommend that he be reprimanded,
and the witness be excused.

1548
02:00:22,132 --> 02:00:28,503
-Overruled. The objection is noted.
-Colonel?

1549
02:00:32,642 --> 02:00:37,011
-Is this funny, sir?
-No, it's tragic.

1550
02:00:37,397 --> 02:00:44,018
-Do you have an answer?
-Absolutely. I don't have a clue.

1551
02:00:44,279 --> 02:00:50,525
Maybe he was an early riser.
Maybe he didn't have any friends.

1552
02:00:50,785 --> 02:00:58,078
I'm an educated man, but I don't
know the travel habits of Santiago.

1553
02:00:58,334 --> 02:01:04,000
What I do know is that he was
set to leave at 0600.

1554
02:01:04,215 --> 02:01:11,508
Are these really the questions
I was called here to answer?

1555
02:01:11,723 --> 02:01:15,011
I hope you have something more.

1556
02:01:15,518 --> 02:01:19,306
These two Marines
are on trial for their lives.

1557
02:01:19,522 --> 02:01:25,813
Please tell me their lawyer hasn't
pinned their hopes to a phone bill.

1558
02:01:26,196 --> 02:01:32,066
Do you have any other
questions for me, counsellor?

1559
02:01:38,541 --> 02:01:41,123
Lieutenant Kaffee?

1560
02:01:42,754 --> 02:01:44,961
This is the other pivotal moment.

1561
02:01:45,215 --> 02:01:49,959
He comes up with a brilliant piece of
lawyering, very easily batted away.

1562
02:01:50,220 --> 02:01:53,132
So the question is, "Will he
go through with this bluff...

1563
02:01:53,848 --> 02:01:56,055
...with these two airmen...

1564
02:01:56,351 --> 02:01:58,387
...or is he gonna told at this point?"

1565
02:01:58,603 --> 02:02:01,891
And again, he has to face
his own feelings...

1566
02:02:02,148 --> 02:02:03,729
...about who he is.

1567
02:02:04,442 --> 02:02:11,439
-I beg your pardon?
-I'm not through. Sit down.

1568
02:02:13,576 --> 02:02:16,283
"Colonel."

1569
02:02:16,496 --> 02:02:20,284
He should address me as
"Colonel" or "sir".

1570
02:02:20,792 --> 02:02:27,664
—Call him "Colonel" or "sir".
-What kind of unit is this?

1571
02:02:28,132 --> 02:02:33,422
And the witness will address me
as "judge" or "Your Honor".

1572
02:02:33,888 --> 02:02:38,131
Take your seat... Colonel.

1573
02:02:41,312 --> 02:02:45,430
What shall we discuss?
My favorite color?

1574
02:02:46,484 --> 02:02:50,818
Colonel, the 6.00 am. flight
was the first one?

1575
02:02:51,030 --> 02:02:55,319
There wasn't one seven hours earlier
to Andrews?

1576
02:02:55,535 --> 02:02:58,447
Haven't we covered this?

1577
02:02:58,997 --> 02:03:04,492
These are the flight logs for
Guantanamo Bay and Andrews.

1578
02:03:04,711 --> 02:03:10,547
There's no flight at 11.00 pm,
and no arrival at 2.00 am.

1579
02:03:10,800 --> 02:03:12,961
I'd like to admit them as evidence.

1580
02:03:13,928 --> 02:03:20,470
-But the flight never existed!
-We believe it did, sir.

1581
02:03:20,685 --> 02:03:26,646
We call airmen O'Malley and
Rodriguez of Andrews Air Base.

1582
02:03:26,816 --> 02:03:33,984
-They're not on the list.
-They are rebuttal witnesses.

1583
02:03:34,157 --> 02:03:36,569
-I'II allow the witnesses.
-This is ridiculous!

1584
02:03:36,993 --> 02:03:38,324
Colonel, a moment ago--

1585
02:03:38,828 --> 02:03:44,243
-Check the logs, for Christ's sake!
-We'll get to that in a minute.

1586
02:03:44,709 --> 02:03:53,003
You said, you told Kendrick to say
that Santiago wasn't to be touched.

1587
02:03:53,468 --> 02:03:57,962
-He was clear on what you wanted?
-Crystal.

1588
02:03:58,723 --> 02:04:03,342
-Can he have ignored the order?
-Ignored the order?

1589
02:04:03,519 --> 02:04:06,352
-Or forgot it?
-No.

1590
02:04:06,522 --> 02:04:12,518
Could he have thought,
"The old man is wrong"?

1591
02:04:12,695 --> 02:04:17,906
When Lt. Kendrick talked to the men,
any chance they ignored him?

1592
02:04:19,619 --> 02:04:23,703
Ever been in the infantry, son?

1593
02:04:23,915 --> 02:04:27,248
Ever served in a forward area?

1594
02:04:27,502 --> 02:04:34,249
Ever put your life in another
man's hands, and his in yours?

1595
02:04:34,509 --> 02:04:39,503
We follow orders, son.
Otherwise people die.

1596
02:04:39,722 --> 02:04:44,216
It's that simple. Are we clear?

1597
02:04:44,727 --> 02:04:49,892
-Are we clear?
-Crystal.

1598
02:04:50,733 --> 02:04:56,148
One last question, before I call
airmen O'Malley and Rodriguez.

1599
02:04:56,406 --> 02:05:00,615
If you ordered that Santiago wasn't
to be touched,

1600
02:05:00,827 --> 02:05:05,161
and your orders
are always followed,

1601
02:05:05,415 --> 02:05:10,079
then why was Santiago in danger?

1602
02:05:10,294 --> 02:05:16,540
Why would it be necessary
to transfer him off the base?

1603
02:05:19,470 --> 02:05:24,055
He was a substandard Marine.
He was being transferred...

1604
02:05:24,267 --> 02:05:28,977
You said he was transferred
because he was in danger.

1605
02:05:29,188 --> 02:05:34,148
I said, "grave danger?" and you
said... we can read it...

1606
02:05:34,610 --> 02:05:41,277
-I know what I said!
-Then why the two orders?

1607
02:05:43,119 --> 02:05:48,989
-Men can do things on their own.
-But your men never did.

1608
02:05:49,208 --> 02:05:53,702
Your men obey orders.
So Santiago wasn't in danger, right?

1609
02:05:53,963 --> 02:05:56,329
You snotty little bastard.

1610
02:05:56,591 --> 02:05:59,128
-I request a recess.
-We'll wait for an answer.

1611
02:05:59,343 --> 02:06:01,504
The court will wait for an answer.

1612
02:06:01,971 --> 02:06:07,716
If Lt. Kendrick gave an order that
Santiago wasn't to be touched,

1613
02:06:07,977 --> 02:06:12,141
why did he have to be transferred?

1614
02:06:12,523 --> 02:06:17,142
Kendrick ordered a Code Red,
because you told him to!

1615
02:06:17,361 --> 02:06:23,823
And when it went bad, you signed a
phony transfer and fixed the logs!

1616
02:06:25,161 --> 02:06:26,867
This conundrum was set up...

1617
02:06:27,121 --> 02:06:31,114
...by Andy Scheinman, one of the
producers, Aaron Sorkin and myself.

1618
02:06:31,334 --> 02:06:36,499
This is something that really puts
Jessep into a corner.

1619
02:06:37,340 --> 02:06:40,503
Now we're gonna see one of
the great monologs...

1620
02:06:41,636 --> 02:06:45,003
...in the film, and one of the great
monologs, in my opinion...

1621
02:06:45,223 --> 02:06:48,181
...in Jack's repertoire.

1622
02:06:48,392 --> 02:06:52,635
And the interesting thing about
this monolog and that is...

1623
02:06:52,855 --> 02:06:57,064
...he performed this
a minimum of 30, 40, 50 times.

1624
02:06:57,360 --> 02:06:59,442
I can't remember how many,
but so many.

1625
02:06:59,695 --> 02:07:02,186
When we did the angles
on the other actors...

1626
02:07:02,448 --> 02:07:04,439
...and we did those first...

1627
02:07:04,700 --> 02:07:07,407
...Jack always performed it full out.
And I thought:

1628
02:07:07,703 --> 02:07:09,694
"I can't believe he's doing this.

1629
02:07:09,872 --> 02:07:13,535
Why wouldn't he save it for when
we came around to his close-up?"

1630
02:07:13,793 --> 02:07:17,081
He said to me,
"Rob, you don't understand something.

1631
02:07:17,380 --> 02:07:19,541
I'm an actor and I love to act."

1632
02:07:19,757 --> 02:07:24,547
He was saying he doesn't get a chance
to say great words like this...

1633
02:07:24,762 --> 02:07:29,301
...and he wanted to take advantage
of that and he enjoyed doing it.

1634
02:07:29,559 --> 02:07:34,724
The performance you are seeing here
was a good 40, 50 times, like I said.

1635
02:07:35,189 --> 02:07:39,057
And every single time it was terrific.

1636
02:07:39,735 --> 02:07:45,571
...but questions the way I do it.
Better just to thank me.

1637
02:07:45,783 --> 02:07:49,446
Or pick up a gun and stand a post.

1638
02:07:49,704 --> 02:07:54,414
But I don't give a damn
what you think you are entitled to!

1639
02:07:54,625 --> 02:08:00,621
-Did you order the Code Red?
-You're goddamn right I did!

1640
02:08:11,601 --> 02:08:18,018
I suggest the jury be dismissed, and
we move to an article 39a session.

1641
02:08:18,274 --> 02:08:22,813
-The witness has rights.
-Captain Ross?

1642
02:08:27,283 --> 02:08:28,773
Jack?

1643
02:08:34,123 --> 02:08:37,456
The members of the court
will retire.

1644
02:08:40,671 --> 02:08:46,667
What the hell is this?
I did my job, I'd do it again.

1645
02:08:46,886 --> 02:08:51,676
-I'm going back to my base.
-You're not going anywhere.

1646
02:08:51,891 --> 02:08:56,134
MP's, guard the colonel!

1647
02:08:57,271 --> 02:09:00,058
-Captain Ross.
-What the hell is this?

1648
02:09:00,316 --> 02:09:02,978
You've the right to remain silent.

1649
02:09:03,194 --> 02:09:07,278
I'm being charged with a crime?

1650
02:09:07,490 --> 02:09:10,653
I'm being charged with a crime?

1651
02:09:10,868 --> 02:09:14,861
This is funny, that's what this is!

1652
02:09:15,081 --> 02:09:20,417
I'm gonna rip the eyes out of your
head and piss in your skull!

1653
02:09:20,670 --> 02:09:25,539
Colonel Jessep,
do you understand your rights?

1654
02:09:30,054 --> 02:09:35,424
You fucking people have no
idea how to defend a nation.

1655
02:09:35,851 --> 02:09:41,312
All you did was weaken a country,
Kaffee!

1656
02:09:41,524 --> 02:09:46,188
You put peoples' lives in danger.
Sweet dreams, son.

1657
02:09:46,529 --> 02:09:52,946
Don't call me son.
I'm a lawyer, and a naval officer.

1658
02:09:53,202 --> 02:09:58,447
And you're under arrest,
you son of a bitch!

1659
02:10:00,251 --> 02:10:04,415
The witness is excused.

1660
02:10:24,483 --> 02:10:27,941
All rise!

1661
02:10:37,079 --> 02:10:41,789
-Have you reached a verdict?
-We have, sir.

1662
02:10:52,511 --> 02:10:58,097
Corporal Dawson
and Private Downey.

1663
02:10:58,768 --> 02:11:03,182
Of the charge of murder,
the members find the accused

1664
02:11:03,647 --> 02:11:06,434
not guilty.

1665
02:11:06,650 --> 02:11:10,484
On the charge of
conspiracy to commit murder,

1666
02:11:10,696 --> 02:11:16,657
the members
find the accused not guilty.

1667
02:11:17,286 --> 02:11:19,777
This is another case with a long lens.

1668
02:11:19,997 --> 02:11:23,410
You can keep racking focus...

1669
02:11:25,294 --> 02:11:29,287
...to the character
that you want to focus in on.

1670
02:11:29,965 --> 02:11:33,924
I think it's an effective way
of using this kind of lens.

1671
02:11:37,932 --> 02:11:42,141
This court-martial is adjourned.

1672
02:11:52,696 --> 02:11:54,732
I love that we don't have this...

1673
02:11:54,990 --> 02:11:58,653
...happy-go-lucky ending where
everything works out perfectly...

1674
02:11:58,869 --> 02:12:01,201
...because the fact
of the matter is...

1675
02:12:02,081 --> 02:12:04,163
...this is not clear-cut.

1676
02:12:04,458 --> 02:12:09,168
These men did actually kill somebody
and they should not have done that.

1677
02:12:09,672 --> 02:12:13,460
Even though they were following an
order given by somebody else...

1678
02:12:13,676 --> 02:12:17,043
...they should have exercised
better judgement.

1679
02:12:17,263 --> 02:12:21,757
I love the fact that we have this
kind of ambiguous, not totally....

1680
02:12:22,268 --> 02:12:24,554
In a way, I think it's
very satisfying...

1681
02:12:24,854 --> 02:12:28,972
...but many people say
not a totally happy ending.

1682
02:12:31,735 --> 02:12:36,570
We were supposed to fight for Willy.

1683
02:12:40,744 --> 02:12:46,705
Lt. Kaffee, I have to
take these men for some paperwork.

1684
02:12:55,634 --> 02:12:58,592
Harold?

1685
02:13:00,723 --> 02:13:03,556
Sir?

1686
02:13:03,726 --> 02:13:09,767
You don't need a patch on your arm
to have honor.

1687
02:13:10,024 --> 02:13:15,735
Ten-hut! There's an officer on deck.

1688
02:13:39,428 --> 02:13:42,795
Marc's score here is heroic
and at the same time...

1689
02:13:43,098 --> 02:13:46,761
...makes this wonderful transition
into something beautiful...

1690
02:13:46,977 --> 02:13:50,936
...in the little connection
that Kaffee has with Galloway.

1691
02:13:51,148 --> 02:13:55,357
-Strong witnesses.
-And handsome too.

1692
02:13:55,611 --> 02:14:00,696
—I've got to go arrest Kendrick.
-Tell him I said "Hi".

1693
02:14:00,950 --> 02:14:04,989
Will do.

1694
02:14:13,879 --> 02:14:16,791
The reason we ended the film
with this high-angle shot...

1695
02:14:17,299 --> 02:14:19,961
...and the words "The End"
over the screen...

1696
02:14:20,177 --> 02:14:23,965
...was because I felt that
this film was very...

1697
02:14:24,181 --> 02:14:27,389
...in a way, old-fashioned,
in a good sense of the word.

1698
02:14:27,643 --> 02:14:30,009
In a traditional sense of the word.

1699
02:14:30,312 --> 02:14:34,726
This evoked a
303, 403, 503 feel to it...

1700
02:14:34,984 --> 02:14:38,818
...of the endings of one of the films
you'd see back in those days.

1701
02:14:39,029 --> 02:14:43,648
So that's why we chose to put
"The End" over this high-angle shot.
