The United States, a country that emphasizes human rights and freedom, also has such dirty concealment.
Although it's just a movie, it's shocking.
Just because women are better than men can trigger such brutal revenge. This is the sadness of human nature.
Just because of preserving the reputation, such a shocking atrocities can be hidden.
Although the general was sad and unwilling to see what happened to his daughter, he finally chose to sacrifice women, even if it was the daughter of his dearest relatives.
In this society, men and women are still unequal after all.../
Sad!

The General's Daughter quotes

  • [Brenner questions Colonel Moore after finding his fingerprints at Elisabeth Campbell's crime scene]

    Moore: Look, Paul... may I call you Paul? I so enjoyed when you took the liberty of calling me Bobby. We are, I assume, still trying to outsmart each other? Obviously, Paul... I cannot tell a lie and say... I know nothing about all of this. I also, sadly... cannot tell the truth.

    Brenner: 'Cause you think silence will save your ass.

    Moore: My ass, as you so delicately put it, is already in a sling, is it not?

    Brenner: You mean the sex tapes.

    Moore: [Moore remains silent before responding] You're good. Mmm. You're good. Great question. Almost any answer incriminates me, doesn't it?

    Brenner: That's why I like it.

  • [Brenner and Sunhill go through Elisabeth Campbell's bathroom supplies]

    Sunhill: Well, she wasn't a hypochondriac. She didn't dye her hair, she didn't have oily skin, and she keeps her method of birth control somewhere else.

    Brenner: Well, or perhaps she required her men to wear condoms. Maybe you've heard that condoms are in fashion again because of disease. Nowadays you have to boil people before you can sleep with them. Care for a bath?
