If you loved F.I.S.T., try A Soldier's Story
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Norman Jewison, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to F.I.S.T., the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What A Soldier's Story is
Rural Louisiana summer dusk, a bullet-riddled body on dusty ground, a saxophone wails in the distance, a Master Sergeant lies dead. Fearful black troops, an uncooperative chain of command. Norman Jewison directs a tense mystery.
