Dana and Tom discuss another cable TV favorite, A Few Good Men: directed by Rob Reiner; written by Aaron Sorkin; starring Tom Cruise, Demi Moore, Kevin Pollack, Kevin Bacon, Keifer Sutherland, and Jack Nicholson.

Plot Summary: After the death of a private at Guantanamo Bay, two Marines are charged with murder, and Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee (Tom Cruise) is appointed to represent the two in their defense. Inclined to plea bargain, he is pushed by a lawyer from internal affairs, Commander Joanne Galloway (Demi Moore) to defend them at trial because she believes the two were ordered to perform a "code red," a sometimes violent extrajudicial or military punishment, by Colonel Nathan R. Jessup (Jack Nicholson). Assisted by Lieutenant Sam Weinberg (Kevin Pollack) and pitted again prosecutor Jack Ross (Kevin Bacon), Kaffee and his legal team build a case that redefines the very meaning of "honor, code, and duty."
