| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThe taut direction, finely tuned philosophical screenplay and crisp performances, make this superior courtroom military film a suspenseful and cerebral one." |
| User Reviewcli oNot as sophisticated but no less effective than "The Manchurian Candidate". Edgy performance by Richard Basehart. |
| User ReviewDoug OA ton of names in this 1957 flick directed by the late great Karl Malden. The film stars American cinema icon Richard Widmark as an American colonel desperate to save an Army major facing court-martial. The film also has a young Rip Torn and Martin Balsam. A solid film, worth a watch if you are into the classics. |
