As soon as the film came up, the two officials described Galloway's lawyer's professional level. Galloway did the investigation with all her heart, but when she arrived at the scene of the trial, she seemed to be incompetent, and was obviously suitable to be an investigator rather than a chief lawyer. The performance also confirmed these comments. Galloway is extremely responsible and compassionate.

Kaffee likes to play baseball, has a cheerful and talkative personality, is good at negotiating in business, and is familiar with the court process and legal terms. He can easily win the lightest penalty for his client while practicing baseball, but he has never been there. Court, all previous cases ended in out-of-court settlements.

Sam is a kind-hearted person, he always smiles when he is around Kaffee, and usually doesn't talk much. He did not agree with his client's approach, he was very fond of them, but as a lawyer, he had to defend them.

Jessup, the commander of the Guantanamo Marine Corps, is always eloquent and sophisticated.

Harold Dawson and Loudon Downey are the parties in this film. They are excellent marines. Dawson has clear values, group, army, God, country are his creeds.

    An idealistic victory. In other contexts, it may feel hypocritical. But it happened in the United States, and it felt credible. It's not the law, it's what I can prove. / Colonel Jessup, the commander of Guantanamo, lost to Pride and Prejudice. He discriminated against female colleagues, against black judges, and despised those underdogs in the army. However, his strength in wartime may bring success, and his arrogance in peacetime is his fatal wound. I eat breakfast 300 yards from 4000 Cuban soldiers trained to kill me, so I don't think you can come down here, flash your badge make me nervous.

A Few Good Men quotes

  • Kaffee: [in an interogation room] This your signature?

    Dawson: Yes, sir.

    Kaffee: You don't have to call me "sir."

    [to Downey]

    Kaffee: Is this your signature?

    Downey: Sir, yes, sir.

    Kaffee: You certainly don't need to do it twice in one sentence.

  • Col. Jessup: [in Jessup's office] Hmmmm... transfer Santiago. Yes, I'm sure you're right. I'm sure that's the thing to do. Wait, I've got a better idea. Let's transfer the whole squad off the base. Let's... On second thought, Windward! Let's transfer the whole Windward Division off the base. John, go on out there and get those boys down off the fence, they're packing their bags. Tom!

    Tom: Yes, sir!

    Col. Jessup: Get me the President on the phone. We're surrendering our position in Cuba!

    Tom: Yes, sir.

    Col. Jessup: Wait a minute, Tom, don't get the President just yet. Maybe we should consider this for a second. Dismissed, Tom. Maybe, and I'm just spit balling here, maybe, we have a responsibility as officers to traing Santiago. Maybe we as officers have a responsibility to this country to see to that the men and women charged with its security are trained professionals. Yes, I'm certain that I read that somewhere once. And now I'm thinking,Col. Markinson, that your suggestion of transferring Santiago, while expeditious and certainly painless, might not be, in a matter of speaking, the American way. Santiago stays where he is. We're gonna train the lad!
