"Master and Commander"

Plus there's a movie w/ Kirk Douglas playing a WW1 sargent who's forced to execute three of his soldiers for cowardice by bureaucratic @sshole generals. Something do do w/ Honor, that's a great movie.

Paths of Glory.

Great movie - Stanley Kubrick directed it.

A little nit-picking. That was "Paths of Glory" and Douglas was actually a Colonel in it. It was an incredible drama about the French General Staff executing three random soldiers for the failure of their poorly planned attack.
