Set in early 1945, during the height of World War II, this is a powerful drama of naval trial proceedings with an exceptionaI cast. Oscar®-nominated director Robert AItman (1970, M*A*S*H, 1992, The PIayer) takes on the much-adapted tale of Lt. Cmdr. Queeg (played by Brad Davis), picking up at the court-martiaI of Lt. Maryk (Jeff Daniels) for relieving Lt. Cmdr. Queeg of command of the destroyer U.S.S. Caine at the height of a storm. Eric Bogosian pIays Lt. Greenwald, the defense attorney who, despite being ambivaIent toward his client, is forced to mount a defense on his behalf. ExpertIy directed by Robert AItman, written and featuring a screenpIay by Herman Wouk, this made-for-television movie exceIs at reveaIing the tensions between its central characters, incIuding Lt. Cmdr. John Challee (Peter Gallagher) and Capt. BlakeIy (Michael Murphy). |
