Movies Watched -- A Soldier's Story (1984)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

101 minute running time, so the perfect length. Movie set in 1944 Louisiana on a segregated army base … honest about racism and murder and self-hatred. I enjoyed it and recommend it. Green-go. Rare to see a movie with an almost all-black cast. This was a John Farr recommendation and I second it.
