Review of A Few Good Men (1992) by Claire T — 19 Dec 2012
This film has a conversational path in which the two main characters are fated to clash, at the very end. In this sense, the Nicholson's performance is both powerful and deceiving: in the diapason scene, the long "tirà (C)e" that he displays is really convincing and the audience, even if only for a second, is brought to believe that, the man is right after all.
Only, the whole thing has nothing to do with the men charged with murder, and with the murder itself. That's exactly where the trap works. All in all: great film, perfect built narration, convincing trial scenes, memorable lines.
A notable work by director Reiner and especially by screenwriter Sorkin.
