William Friedkin always loved the gray area and characters who couldn't be defined in just one simple way, and here he masterfully explores that through a trial that forces us to consider mental illness (and specifically how that is defined), ego, and leadership experience as they relate to a major conflict in decision-making between Naval Officers that has resulted on one of them being accused of mutiny. Riveting, fantastic work here all-around, and a perfect companion piece to my beloved THE CAINE MUTINY (1954).
