However, the black lawyer found in the investigation that all the people did not like this black official, especially the black soldiers hated him, so everyone had a motive to kill him.

The film has two deviations from the norm. One is that the story happened in 1944, the whole world was World War II and World War II, but this is the topic of black and white; the other is that you thought that the conflict between black and white was the theme of performance, but in the end, the justice of black officers was used to enforce the law, showing the harmony of black and white , so such a film that fits the American theme is not unexpectedly nominated for Best...

Captain Taylor: I guess I'll have to get used to Negroes with bars on their shoulders, Davenport. You know, being in charge.
Captain Davenport: Oh, you'll get used to it, Captain. You bet your ass on that. You'll get used to it.

Master Sergeant Vernon Waters: And if it wasn't for you Southern niggers, white folks wouldn't think we was all fools.
Private First Class Peterson: Well, where are you from? England?

Private First Class Peterson: CJ was sleeping when I came in. It's Waters. Can't y'all see that? You know, I seen 'em before. We had 'em in Alabama. White man give him a small-ass job as a servant and when the boss ain't looking, that old copy-cat nigger act like he the new boss. Shouting, ordering people around. You see, arresting CJ, that'll get Waters another stripe. Next, it'll be you or you. You see, he can't look good unless he's standing on you. Cobb told him CJ was in here all evening. Waters didn't even listen, did he? Turning somebody in. "Well, look what I done, Captain-boss." Only reason he's in the Army is 'cause they know he'll do what they tell him to. I've seen this kind of fool before. Somebody's gonna kill him one of these days.
