In this very first post on Dusty and Nice, I will recommend you my favourite Film which in my opinion is the best movie of all time, A Few Good Men (1992) starring Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson and Demi Moore.

Lt. Daniel Kaffee (Tom Cruise) is an inexperienced Navy lawyer who has never seen a courtroom and was tasked to defend two Marines, Pfc. Louden Downey and Lance Cpl. Harold Dawson, who were charged with the murder of their fellow Marine, Pfc. William Santiago down at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Initially planning to plea-bargain for this case, he was convinced to investigate further by Lt. Cdr. JoAnne Galloway (Demi Moore) who suspected a cover-up given the hushed-up nature of this case.

This film follows the investigation conducted by Lt. Kaffee that uncovers the harsh reality that soldiers down at the border face, and how while Col. Nathan Jessep's (Jack Nicholson) order to perform an illegal disciplinary action termed "Code Red" against Pfc. Santiago is unethical, his actions weren't totally wrong given his responsibilities.

The film was very intriguing and really kept me on my toes all the way. Col. Jessep was one tough nut to crack and the only way Lt. Kaffee could do it was to put his career on the line, accusing Col. Jessep in court, and then using Col. Jessep's low tolerance for disrespect against him. The film title, "A Few Good Men" sums things up pretty nicely. Everyone in the courtroom was a "good man" performing his duties to the best of his abilities. Col. Jessep definitely embodied the type of "necessary evil" that although unethical, gets things done. This is one show I would never ever forget. 5/5!
