👏👏👏👏👏 This film is sheer PERFECTION. The story, the script, the casting, the flawless performances, the directing, the editing, the costuming... full marks in every category!! Attenborough... a master of his craft!
Excellent movie: plot, cast and the eternal themes of honour, virtue, duty, truth & friendship. Superb story. I miss Michael York and Stacey Keach is mesmerizing in this role. Why can't they make movies like this anymore?
Good cast. One might think that the plot might be predictable, but there are interesting twists. Surprisingly low-key, but intense, psychological drama.
Once you get a third of the way in this becomes an amazing movie. Amazing plot with twists. Stacy Keach is phenomenal and should get higher billing. York as the young defender seeking truth and honor in the face of much pressure to give way to a quick trial is an amazing theme, one which is also used twenty years later in "A Few Good Men." I like this execution even better.
Astonishimg plot! Excellent movie! Superbe actors! York and Plummer are my two favourite English actors. Thank you, CCC! Enjoyed this film very much! Great entertainment!
You right -- Michael York was just such a unique actor in the Seventies. Will never forget his perfect D'Artagnan under the witty direction of Richard Lester. Have been missing him a lot since he cought that rare and terrible illness.
This is absolutely true . In the British Indian Army , a Officer who showed too much interest in fellow officers wives , had the sobriquet of " Lounge Lizard "
@@jamiejones7325 Stacy Keach is the most underrated actor of his generation. Almost everything he has done is very interesting to watch. I saw him do king Lear and couldn’t believe how amazing he was , and he wasn’t British. I actually met him once and told him I was a big fan. He seemed genuinely surprised and told me I was too young to have seen any of his movies.
What a pleasure to watch. Great acting, great screenwriting and makes one recall when actors were actors and not just fill ins reading idiot sheets in between computer generated cartoons. And what a relief that cast for the British members of the regiment were not colour coded by skin colour or gender.
Thank you for posting this hidden gem. It starts slow. But an hour in it becomes an intense military courtroom drama as good as "A Few Good Men" or "Men of Honor" And a whodunit as well. For a free TH-cam movie, it is damn good!
Muy buena película sobre la amistad, fraternidad,la verdad por sobre la mentira para llegar a una cuestión de honor, la cualidad más importante en una persona y que en actualidad no se valora como debería ser. Película muy recomendable.
Will somebody please explain the ending? (spoiler alert) Did a ghost take possession of the officer and make him do horrible things? Was he really Scarlett in disguise, who'd assumed another identity? But if so, why? And how was he able to fool everyone in his regiment into thinking he was somebody else? I just...don't get this. It was a great movie, up until the end, but after that it made no sense to me.
Couldn’t make out certain things. Was Drake really killed? Were Drake and Roche the same persons. Why was the regiment keeping it a secret? What is all this honour business,when they treat women like pigs. Their honour rooted in their dishonour stood.
Spoiler alert . . It seems that the man who killed himself *imagined* he had been possessed by a dead man, but he recognised - when confronted - that he'd been the person responsible for the assaults. As someone else commented, it may have been trauma ....
A finer grouping of British actors.actresses would be nigh impossible to find. I'd like to also mention two very fine Indian actors: Rafiq Anwar was spot on as Pradah Singh, so much so it didn't seem as acting. Persis Khambatta a rising star who left her fans too early in life.
Absolutely excellent film, and I understand why we are unfamiliar with it. It could not have been shown on television in any way. I’m surprised that it made it into a theater?!? It deserves a revival.
Una grata sorpresa ver de nuevo este magnífico filme con tan icónicos actores en una soberbia interpretación en plasmar de principio a fin. Una verdadera joya en verdad la trama ahí expuesta. Saludos y bendiciones a todos los cinéfilos de corazón desde Venezuela.
The film is an incredible legal mystery set in British India in 1879, the acting is superb and the portrayal of military etiquette and dialogue is incredibly realistic, highly recommended for anyone who enjoys compelling dramatic fiction with historical accuracy.
Hi Funny how of the two new recruits it was the one who so much wanted to be in this ‘Honourable regiment who turned out to be the one to resign because they put honour above truth! And the one who wanted to be rejected by it remained after being exonerated by it after being falsely accused!
I enjoyed this movie immensely, such great actors together in such a movie cant get better than that. Was this movie based on actual fact, it showed just before the credits the officer that Richard Attenborough portrayed in the movie
Very interesting dramatization and suspense. But I found the climax rather contrived - it was rather a stretch of imagination to attribute Major Roach's personality disorder to the incidents . Apart from that were the other red herrings .
This deep, psychological drama is not just very entertaining, but It makes you to think.Very powerful story! The military trial brilliantly staged, played by all superb actors, is the gripping culmination with the unexpected revelations on the both sides and twists. Where the main question was: Can the officers handle the Truth? Watch this amassing movie and you will find out.
Vaya, que pena esta en inglés, lo siento porque tiene buena pinta, al protagonista le conozco de otras pelis y me gusta, no me ha dado por los idiomas, pues nada otra vez será...😳😳
The film has barely started and I just counted at least four or five officers who do not have moustaches. This would not have been tolerated in an Indian cavalry regiment in the late 19th century.
Está basada en una obra de teatro de Barry England, quien sirvió en el ejército británico en Asia,. Quizá de ahí la ubicación. El personaje trastornado es ficticio.
I found this video to be entertaining and interesting from the very start, full of unexpected twists and turns I could not have imagined. I also found the Indian widow to be beautiful!!
I really liked this movie. It held my interest all the way through. The thing is, when I was watching it I was not sure that I had seen it before: I am that old and would have been 22 when it came out. It was only at the end with Plummer shooting the Uniform mannequin, that I remembered seeing it.
Hola Doña Macarena. He notado que en la grabación del sonido se manifiestan un ruido grave como cuando un parlante esta con la membrana rota. Eso viene sucediendo desde hace como 3 o 4 semanas. Puede ser que algo se le va dañar

I was on the edge of my seat the entire movie. They sure don't make them movies like this anymore.
This is a brilliant movie.
9/10 in all departments. And a fun one too.
I highly recommend.
Never even heard of this until now - what a corker of a film. Thank you, full marks +++++
Christopher Plummer, Michael York and Stacey Keach played together in Jesus of Nazareth. Great to see them again ❤
What a strongly built film, served by immense talents we have and still today regret - I attribute "excellent" to this art film. Thank you.
Excellent movie: plot, cast and the eternal themes of honour, virtue, duty, truth & friendship. Superb story. I miss Michael York and Stacey Keach is mesmerizing in this role.

Bécasse we have no honour, virtue, duty...
@@AB-rx6no Sad, but true.

Plus Christopher “Georg von Trapp” Plummer!
Top shelf? It turns into an XXX movie?
@@newsbender never heard the reference … I’ll switch the wording
Rather contrived ending . Multiple personality disorder - how convenient to fit the bill .
@@WSBMme neither, maybe I’m misunderstanding the commentary? Top shelf means “the best” and has nothing to do with xxx.
Really enjoyed this one. Great cast, and I thought it was going to be predictable but it did have a twist ending.
Multiple personality disorder seems like a far stretch .
Astonishimg plot! Excellent movie! Superbe actors! York and Plummer are my two favourite English actors.
Thank you, CCC! Enjoyed this film very much! Great entertainment!
Susanah York performances very well her role. Pretty womam and very good actress.
Plummer was canadian.
You right -- Michael York was just such a unique actor in the Seventies. Will never forget his perfect D'Artagnan under the witty direction of Richard Lester. Have been missing him a lot since he cought that rare and terrible illness.
The greatest dishonor is to oneself. Great storyline. Great acting. Thanks for posting.
Thank you. Glad you found the movie interesting too.

They got the Hindi language right for a change.
Is that Stacy Keach ? What range!
Yes, I’ll never be fan any stranger, but that was impressive acting.
Actor
Not movie star.😮

@@jamiejones7325 you will become a fan if you see Fat City, the Long Riders, or Road Games among many other great movies.
Stacey Keach was absolutey outstanding in this. What a great actor!
Great cast. Thank you!
not a bad whodunit. Interesting to see "gentlemen officers" at play when bored out of their minds.
That's the regimental honour they're protecting .

By far the best movie I have seen on this platform
Wow! that was much better than expected!
Well done. Good story, good acting, and a fine set.
Good movie, Respect from Romania! 🇷🇴
This Officers’ Mess in India is a long way from the Sergeants’ Mess at Batasi, but Attenborough owned them both.
Will somebody please explain the ending? (spoiler alert) Did a ghost take possession of the officer and make him do horrible things? Was he really Scarlett in disguise, who'd assumed another identity? But if so, why? And how was he able to fool everyone in his regiment into thinking he was somebody else? I just...don't get this. It was a great movie, up until the end, but after that it made no sense to me.
He had ptsd from finding the guys body, the other officers were covering for him or were willfully ignorant to protect the regiment
And Roach was the bloke who shot himself.
Couldn’t make out certain things. Was Drake really killed? Were Drake and Roche the same persons. Why was the regiment keeping it a secret? What is all this honour business,when they treat women like pigs. Their honour rooted in their dishonour stood.

@@adhipmitra No, Drake wasn't killed. Drake and Roach weren't the same person. You mean Scarlett.
A forgotten classic. Hollywood can't write these any more.
It wouldn't sell unfortunately to today's kids. No xbox games.
The absolute best of British actors

Thank you for posting this movie.

Brilliant movie on so many levels. Thanks for posting.
" Conduct Unbecoming" is the title of this film.

Mike Hammer was surprisingly convincing as a British military officer.
Val Kilmer was also a convincing actor.
@@garrysekelli6776 Are you confusing Val Kilmer with Michael York?

Jus' sayin'!

PELICULÓN!!!! lo único que no entiendo es por qué usaron el nombre de un oficial real del ejército británico- indio para un personaje trastornado?
Está basada en una obra de teatro de Barry England, quien sirvió en el ejército británico en Asia,. Quizá de ahí la ubicación.
El personaje trastornado es ficticio.
Excellent. !..Film.... GREAT Cast...😊....

Outstanding movie, I’ve watched it several times.
Bravo! Superb performances by all - brilliantly composed.
I saw this on the stage decades ago. I remember there being a twist but I could not remember who was twisting.
Never heard about this movie. All i can say is what a revelation! Top notch.
I found this video to be entertaining and interesting from the very start, full of unexpected twists and turns I could not have imagined. I also found the Indian widow to be beautiful!!
Fantastic film, superb cast
All the famous Brit actors of 1975 (excluding Baker, Caine, and Connery).
Honor of self or honor of organization. Very relevant theme considering the employees of the 3 letter agencies
Very good. Thank you

This brilliant movie tells the viewer's that whatever maybe the truth only will be rewield
Well worth a watch.
Mit Sicherheit kein schlechter Film, aber ihr müsst die auch in Deutsch bringen ! Habe keine Lust dazu, alles mitlesen zu müssen 😮
Gott sei Dank keine beschissene deutsche Synchronisation...
Good movie. Thanks.
Classic movie story no doubt ❤❤❤❤
Awesome thanks 😊
What a great movie, great cast
Very good actors for playing silly traditions
I always felt anxious about the condition of the splendid horses in these films. Often, they were of more interest than the people .
Most Excellent!
Amazing plot❤
