Great Flick! Classic in my opinion which is why I purchased it. I enjoy looking at my classics at least once a year. Unfortuantely, this movie does not appear on TV much.
July 27, 2008SOLDIER'S STORY is one of my favorite Afro American films. The adaptation of the play to screen was superb. A stellar cast featuring a young Denzel Washington, this film is powerful and speaks about honor and dishonor, courage and cowardice, prejudice and acceptance, tragedy and justice. Best of all, SOLDIER'S STORY is based on a real courtroom case. This is a must have for those who collect Afro American films.
April 15, 2008I'd been looking for this film everywhere and I finally checked on amazon and not only was it a great price, but I had it in my hands in no time.
September 3, 2007Cerebral mystery story operates on several levels. We get to know the murdered man through flashbacks and see how many people had a motive to kill him. Set on top of this is the condescension with which investigation is treated by the white brass. All ingredients make for a meaty, involving murder tale shedding light on racism of the time. Young Denzel is particularly strong in a pivotal role, and Caesar was nominated for an Oscar for his portrayal of the loathsome Waters.
July 6, 2007Just so happens this is one of my all time favorites and I got it at a very reasonable price in a short amount of time.
