A Few Good Men | Is Galloway Right For The Case? (ft. Demi Moore) | CineStream

"Commander, I'd like you to leave the room so we can talk about you behind your back." One of the best lines (outside of Jack) in the movie.

I love that Demi Moore's character is not just a token/love-interest to Cruise's caracther.

[@presentprogressive8780]

That's supposedly because in an early draft the role was written as a man and subsequently changed to a woman, which made some Executive question why there is no sex scene between Cruise and Moore and made Sorkin write a scene at the very end where they talk about going on a date, but he eventually stood his ground and removed any romantic relationship between the two characters.

Turns out she wasn't a good lawyer. Had she just done her due diligence, she would have known that HER client Downey wasn't in the room when the Code Red was ordered, and so she could have got him off with the 'just following orders' argument and separated the two soldiers. For all her speeches and criticism of Kaffee, her passion stopped her from doing her job. Like the guy said, "All passion and no street smarts!".

[@giantskunk]

She ended up being a crappy lawyer. No way the Pvt.’s real story should have been in court. She should have walked him through it and figured out the truth then Tom Cruise could have tried something else. Plus, all Jack Nicholson had to do was keep his trap shut or say “I don’t know.” A bad lawyering movie.

[@blockmasterscott]

Agreed 100%. She would have sunk those two guys if she was in charge of representing them.

[@tommym321]

The fact that she extensively prepped the private (and let’s face it, her character would have totally overdone it) the fact that she never uncovered the fact that he never heard the order is utterly absurd levels of incompetence

[@audreybowles6357]

Crappy Lawyer, Bull! Knowing all the misogynies of the US Military and JAGs(and you people in the comments) , it was Jo's pushing her strategy on Kaffee from the door (expose the code red) and in court (put Jessup on the stand) that won this case (movie). BAMM!

This entire scene was to show Galloway would not be a good litigator and unable to think on her feet. The scene did a great job. Others have mentioned military curtesy and one more to point out is the assistant would not have stayed seated when addressing a superior officer.

[@daleferber2096]

Not necessarily He offered that she could sit, she said she "was fine' he then TOLD her to sit down At that point it would not be expected in a basically casual office setting to expect her to stand when she responded to a question that he had asked

@@daleferber2096 I’m referring to the enlisted assistant outside the office at the beginning of the video. Not Galloway once she is inside the office. Galloway actually follows protocol until she says: ‘Ohhkay”. That was a little disrespectful. Saying “OK” was drilled out of us during training. It was “yes sir/mam” or “no sir/mam”.

But a random not so senior officer from some other command who is not making what could be called an "official visit" IE representing that other commands CO not so much No one would fault her for doing it but few would fault her for doing just what she did.

[@toddfrank3344]

Galloway was an incompetent lawyer who insinuated herself into the case even after she was rejected by division, then nearly blew the whole thing..and then tried, and ultimately succeeded, in shaming Kaffey into risking a court martial in defending the two marines he was representing. A real piece of work. Worst part was when he apologized after going off on her (which she absolutely had coming).

[@klong9269]

And yet, without her dogged persistence Dawson and Downey would have likely gone to Leavenworth. What struck me was what a powerful team the defense counsel made despite their many differences.

[@toddfrank3344]

@@klong9269 Actually, Kaffey did his job, and If Dawson had listened to Kaffey instead of dismissing him as a coward, and plead out to man 2, they would have gotten virtually the same result they got. In the end both were dishonorably discharged. Galloway was more concerned with her freaking crusade than she was with the clients. Kaffey was right..if Dawson wanted to fall on his sword, it was better to let him do it.
