Tensions flare in this gripping film about a murder on a black army base near the end of World War II. Captain Davenport (Howard E. Rollins Jr.), a proud black army attorney, is sent to Fort Neal, Louisiana, to investigate the ruthless shooting death of Sergeant Waters (Adolph Caesar). Through interviews with Waters’ men, Davenport learns that he was a vicious man who served the white world and despised his own roots. Was the killer a bigoted white officer? Or could he have been a black soldier embittered by Waters’ constant race baiting? Directed by Norman Jewison from Charles Fuller’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play, A Soldier’s Story is both a spellbinding mystery and a superb dram that transcends race. Director Norman Jewison would again reteam with Denzel Washington (Courage Under Fire) to make THE HURRICANE.
