Filmed in 2000 and currently being replayed on HBO, I saw it again yesterday. Robert Deniro plays the tough instructor at a naval diving school, with Cuba Gooding Jr. being the only black student ever in the US Navy Diver School situation. A true story and a great one, I might add.
Oh, and Charlize Theron plays Deniro's wife. Five star cast, five star story, but only rated (I think) three stars on the tv guide thingy.
Retired and I felt like watching movies yesterday..............Glad I did.
Feeling much more productive today BB _________________ If You're Lucky Enough To Live At The Lake

That was a good movie. So many I have forgotten. _________________ Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities (Voltaire)

One of my fave movies. _________________ Be kinder than necessary. Everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
