      The addition of Eva forms a subtle triangle. The low-ranking person's face-to-face respect and back-to-back temptation and challenge, the head-to-head negotiation between the general and the president, these two tensions are great. The general is arrogant and careless, and still trusts his deputy, which is one of the warm sides. Ambitious and tired - the lion and the jackal. Why people want Scott. Why people choose democracy finally. Who gives out the kiss of...

    Movie quotes

    • Senator Raymond Clark: I presume, General, that an alternative to the treaty that would meet with your approval would be continuing to build bombs. Bigger bombs, better bombs, more bombs. Until at some given instant, a trigger-happy idiot presses the button and we all go down the drain waving the American flag!

    • Colonel Martin "Jiggs" Casey: How long will you be in town?

      Colonel William "Mutt" Henderson: Just till the old man briefs Scott. I think you know him. Colonel Broderick?

      Colonel Martin "Jiggs" Casey: Broderick.

      Colonel William "Mutt" Henderson: Good officer, don't you think?

      Colonel Martin "Jiggs" Casey: Yeah, for certain armies. The kind that goose step.

    • Colonel Martin "Jiggs" Casey: ECOMCON and horse racing. What the hell's going on here?
