The Caine Mutiny
68Worth an evening.
They take the captain's ship, win in court, and then hear what they were.
The review
A minesweeper. The captain may be unfit. The officers relieve him in a storm, and a court-martial follows. The strawberries are the detail people remember, and I am not turning him into a joke on the strength of them. The men wanted him gone. They also failed him. Both can be true. The storm does not erase the rest of what they were to him.
The lawyer who saves them then tells them what they were. I would not let a teenager duck that part. Being acquitted is not the same as having been right. The ship was the job. The law is where the wish to be rid of a man gets answered. Do not leave when the verdict lands. The harder voice is the one that just got them off.
Journal
Keep The Caine Mutiny in the record.
No house has filed a sentence for this yet.
Live Historic number 68. Yours can differ.
The glance
Household is the thin one.
Is a marriage, a parent, or a child a real life here, or just a prop?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Saving Private Ryan
75 instead of 68
Saving Private Ryan is still a war film, and it scores 75 instead of 68. What you gain is household: The errand is a mother's remaining son.
