Interesting court room drama about a sad event.

"Excellent court drama starring Richard Basehart. The docu-drama is faithful to the trial transcripts . Harrison Ford is given top billing on the cover of the DVD but in fact appears only briefly in the DVD as one of the members of Calley's platoon.
The short-comings in the drama are the narrations to try and explain to trial and add comentary. I thought it was unneccesary breaks in the drama but I imagine it was done due to commerical interruptions.
The actress that plays Calley's wife is one awful actress. It is almost embarrasing to watch her performance.
All in all it is a classic Allan Lansbury quality docu-drama."
