davidlynch:The attack yesterday morning was no stain on the honour of France, and certainly no disgrace to the fighting men of this nation. But this Court Martial is such a stain, and such a disgrace. The case made against these men is a mockery of all human justice. Gentlemen of the court, to find these men guilty would be a crime, to haunt each of you till the day you die. I can’t believe that the noblest impulse for man - his compassion for another - can be completely dead here. Therefore, I humbly beg you… show mercy to these men.Paths of Glory (1957) dir. Stanley Kubrick -- source link
