A Few Good Men (1992) Tom Cruise的经典之作！好几年前看过这部电影，现在再看一遍，觉得这部电影真不错。 那时的Tom Cruise和Demi Moore多年轻呀！ 法庭上的Tom Cruise超帅！

Tom Cruise和报亭的老伯交谈时引用了一些谚语：

If you can't beat them, join them.

A rolling stone gathers no moss.

It ain't over till the fat lady sings.

一些法庭常用语

All rise. - 全体起立

The witness is excused. - 证人可以离席。

Objection overruled - 反对无效

Objection sustained - 反对有效

The objection of the defense has been heard and overruled.

Demi Moore说，"I strenuously object..." －我强烈反对...

court-martial: noun [uncountable and countable] a court that judges soldiers etc who may have broken military law, or an occasion when this judgment is made
Navy commanders recommended that he be tried by court-martial.

证人作证前，法庭都会要求证人宣誓：
Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?

在A Few Good Men里还看到《24小时》的主角Jack Bauer。他在里面饰演一个军官，只有几个镜头。样子也相当年轻，声音也和今天的Jack Bauer不太一样。 毕竟是15年前的电影。 15年前他只是一个小角色，今天就在《24小时》里面挑大梁。

A Few Good Men是部不可多得的好电影，法庭的交锋相当精彩，值得反复看。

mess hall: a large room where soldiers eat 士兵的饭堂

chow time: 吃饭时间

keep your nose to the grindstone：informal to work very hard, without stopping to rest
