![]() I'm a lot drunker than you are, so it'll be a fair fight. Barney Greenwald: If you wanna do anything about it, I'll be outside. Now here's to the *real* author of "The Caine Mutiny." Here's to you, Mr. But you, you'll publish your novel, you'll make a million bucks, you'll marry a big movie star, and for the rest of your life you'll live with your conscience, if you have any. Steve Maryk will always be remembered as a mutineer. And you managed to keep your skirts nice, and starched, and clean, even in the court martial. Barney Greenwald: From the beginning you hated the Navy. Barney Greenwald: I'm gonna drink a toast to you, Mr. Lieutenant Tom Keefer: Except I never fooled myself, Mr. The 1988 made-for-TV movie The Caine Mutiny Court Marshall continues to prove he is a masterful director regardless of the medium he is using. Only you didn't have one tenth the guts that he had. Before becoming one of the most respected film directors of all time, Robert Altman started his career directing television in the 60s. Barney Greenwald: Queeg was sick, he couldn't help himself. Barney Greenwald: You ought to read his testimony. The Shakespeare whose testimony nearly sunk us all. Barney Greenwald: And now we come to the man who *should've* stood trial. You work with him because he's got the job or you're no good! Well, the case is over. Barney Greenwald: Ah, you're learning, Willie! You're learning that you don't work with a captain because you like the way he parts his hair. Barney Greenwald: Yeah.Įnsign Willie Keith: If that's true, then we *were* guilty. Steve Maryk: It probably wouldn't have been necessary. You think it would've been necessary for you to take over? Barney Greenwald: You're an honest man, Steve, I'm asking you. If you'd given Queeg the loyalty he needed, do you suppose the whole issue would have come up in the typhoon? Barney Greenwald: You didn't approve of his conduct as an officer. Barney Greenwald: Tell me, Steve, after the Yellowstain business, Queeg came to you guys for help and you turned him down, didn't you? You know, I left out one detail in the court martial. Paynter, because that's a very pretty point. Barney Greenwald: I'm glad you brought that up, Mr. Paynter Jr.: You said yourself he cracked. Barney Greenwald: He didn't endanger anybody's life, you did, *all* of you! You're a fine bunch of officers. Tough, sharp guys who didn't crack up like Queeg.Įnsign Willie Keith: But no matter what, Captain Queeg endangered the ship and the lives of the men. So who did the dirty work for us? Queeg did! And a lot of other guys. Oh, no, we knew you couldn't make any money in the service. Keefer here was writing his stories, and you, Willie, were tearing up the playing fields of dear old Princeton, who was standing guard over this fat, dumb, happy country of ours, eh? Not us. Barney Greenwald: So, I torpedoed Queeg for you. I defended you, Steve, because I found the wrong man was on trial. Steve Maryk: What are you, Barney, kind of tight? Barney Greenwald: Well, well, well! The officers of the Caine in happy celebration!
