A Few Good Men
When two marines are charged with murdering a member of their platoon during an unsanctioned disciplinary action in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, the armed forces hire a lieutenant they believe is a lightweight defense attorney. Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee (Tom Cruise) prides himself in having successfully plea-bargained every one of his 44 cases and would just as well make this one his 45th. However, ambitious internal affairs officer Lieutenant Commander Jo Ann Galloway (Demi Moore) smells a rat in the form of a hushed-up practice known as Code Red and, furious at Kaffee's halfhearted efforts, gets hired as the younger cadet's defender. Aided by Lt. Com. Galloway's prodding, Lt. Kaffee begins to realize the rottenness of the whole affair and sets to take on the whole Guantanamo Bay marine corps and its codes, a decision that makes inevitable a ferocious head-to-head showdown with an immovable force. Irascible Colonel Nathan Jessup (Jack Nicholson, in one of the most striking performances of his fabled career) heads the Cuban marine base and is on the cusp of appointment to the National Security Council. Jessup embodies both the necessity and the evil in necessary evil and does not take lightly to anyone questioning his or his corps' methods. Aaron Sorkin's script is adapted from his own gripping award-winning Broadway play and is skillfully brought to the screen by director Rob Reiner.

Slick, engrossing courtroom drama, in which audiences can cheer the hero and hiss the villain, even though it seems little more than a more portentous re-run of The Caine Mutiny.

Legal Eagles: Top 10 Lawyers in Film
- 10 Jan 2011
This week, in Conviction, Hilary Swank plays Betty Anne Wheeler, a working class mum who put herself through law school to get her brother out of jail. It sounds far-fetched, but it’s a true story and a tribute to the determination and faith of a remarkable woman. They say that in America, everybody discovers his or her vocation on TV – which may account for the sheer volume of lawyers in that most litigious of nations. Certainly there has never been a shortage of colourful lawyers Read more
