好人寥寥 A Few Good Men Movie Script

杰瑞发布于2023-10-31

在美国驻古巴关达那摩湾的海军基地，两名海军陆战队员道森和多尼被指控杀害了另一名士兵圣地亚哥。海军律师丹尼尔·卡菲（汤姆·克鲁斯 Tom Cruise 饰）和助手山姆被派接手此桩案件，他们调查到圣地亚哥曾希望调离基地，还举报过道森。卡菲本想进行庭外协调，争取两年刑期。然而 两名士兵坚持自己无罪，他们对圣地亚哥的行为是执行上级给他们下达的“红色条规”。所谓红色条规，就是一种军官默许的由士兵私下进行的训诫条规。 　　卡菲、山姆以及另一名女律师盖洛维（黛米·摩尔 Demi Moore 饰）组成辩方律师进行调查，而基地指挥官杰塞普上校（杰克·尼科尔森 Jack Nicholson 饰）是本案的关键人物，他拒绝了圣地亚哥的调离申请，对他下达了“红色条规”，事后私自篡改了飞行记录。卡菲虽然知道真相，却苦于证据不足，这种情况下若是指证杰塞普上校还会给自己带来麻烦。这场关乎正义的诉讼案，会有一个怎样的结果

JO:
Do you believe they have a defense?
KAFFEE:
You and Dawson both live in the same dreamland. It doesn't matter what I believe, it only matters what I can prove. So please don't tell me what I know and don't know. I know the law.
JO looks at him, shakes her head, and turns to walk away.
She turns back.
JO:
You know nothing about the law. You're a used car salesman, Daniel. You're an ambulance chaser with a rank.
You're nothing.
(beat) Live with that.
Jo walks off leaving KAFFEE alone. We HOLD on KAFFEE. He's not having a good night.
CUT TO:
INT. A GEORGETOWN BAR - NIGHT KAFFEE sits at the bar. The place is crowded with YUPPIES and STUDENTS. KAFFEE's been drinking there a while now. Next to him is a YUPPIE LAWYER, regaling his FRIENDS with the story of his latest brilliant maneuver in the world of high stakes corporate law.
We HOLD on a KAFFEE a moment longer, then YUPPIE LAWYER: ...So I told duncan if we leverage the acquisition of Biotech, the interrogatories would be there on demand. All I have to do is not pick up the phone and it'll run Flaherty ten thousand a day in court costs.
CUT TO:
EXT. A GEORGETOWN STREET - NIGHT KAFFEE sits on a bench in the night. He takes a sip from a bottle he's holding in a brown paper bag.
CUT TO:
EXT. THE PARADE GROUNDS - DAY A bright, sunny morning. The BAND is performing for a group of day campers.
CUT TO:
INT. THE COURTROOM - DAY DAWSON and DOWNEY are at the defense table, ROSS is his place.
KAFFEE walks in and joins JO and SAM at their table. Papers are being passed back and forth between ROSS and the SERGEANT AT AMS. Quiet activity.
The door in the back of the courtroom opens and RANDOLPH, a marine colonel, enters and takes his place at the bench. We can HEAR the band in the background.
SERGEANT AT ARMS All rise.
Everyone present in the courtroom stands.
RANDOLPH:
Where are we?
SERGEANT AT ARMS Docket number 411275. VR-5. United States versus Lance Corporal Harold W. Dawson and Private First Class Loudon Downey. Defendants are charged with Conspiracy to Commit Murder, Murder in the First Degree, and Conduct Unbecoming a United States Marine.
RANDOLPH:
Does defense wish to enter a plea?
KAFFEE stands.
KAFFEE:
Yeah.
(pause) They're not guilty.
JO, SAM, ROSS, RANDOLPH... it's hard to say who's the most surprised. It takes everything Jo's got to suppress a smile.
The silence is broken by ROSS, who takes the two files, drops them into his briefcase, closes the lid, and snaps it shut.
