Customer Rating: Summary: Classic Movie Comment: 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.
Customer Rating: Summary: Great Afro American Film Comment: SOLDIER'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.
Customer Rating: Summary: Great service Comment: I'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.
Customer Rating: Summary: A Soldier's Story Comment: Cerebral 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.
Customer Rating: Summary: Great Movie Comment: Just 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.
