1:02:01
I don't know, sir.
I had no idea that Adm. Jessup...
1:02:04
was in communication with the President
or Harry Begely.
1:02:07
Does anyone know about
a tomb for the Unknown Sailor?
1:02:09
I assume Jessup meant
the first dead sailor on Omaha Beach...
1:02:12
to be the sailor in the tomb.
1:02:13
What tomb?
1:02:14
- The tomb for the Unknown Sailor, sir.
- There is no...
1:02:19
I see. Another one of Jesse's projects.
1:02:23
Commander, this movie about
the demolition engineers.
1:02:26
- Is such a movie being made?
- Not really, sir.
1:02:28
- You see, we've been trying...
- Get it made.
1:02:30
I want this incident closed,
and I want it closed fast.
1:02:32
I don't want anything that's happened
to get out of here.
1:02:35
I don't even want the President
to know this.
1:02:37
Tom.
1:02:38
Put together a movie, Commander,
I can give to Mr. Begely...
1:02:41
who can show it to the President...
1:02:42
who will write a polite note
to Adm. Jessup...
1:02:44
- and this unhappy matter will be closed.
- Yes, sir.
1:02:47
Harry, I am to be informed every hour
as to Adm. Jessup's condition.
1:02:50
- Yes, sir.
- A hell of a day for this to happen.
1:02:57
Now what is so crazy about a tomb
for the Unknown Sailor?
1:03:01
I think there's something splendid
in the idea.
1:03:06
Yes, it does have a ring to it, doesn't it?
1:03:13
How's the old man, Bus?
1:03:15
The President has expressed
an interest in Adm. Jessup's movie.
1:03:19
Naturally.
1:03:21
The Navy has committed itself
to this movie...
1:03:23
and it'll be pretty damned embarrassing
if it isn't made.
1:03:27
So, Charlie, we're going
to make that movie.
1:03:30
That's very spunky of you, Bus.
1:03:32
You and I are going to get on that
2100 flight to Portland this evening...
1:03:36
and we're going to make a movie!
1:03:38
I'm going in this with you, buddy.
1:03:39
I'm cutting orders
for the both of us right now.
1:03:42
Damn it, Charlie. It's exciting, isn't it?
1:03:45
Will you quit giving me
these comradely pokes?
1:03:47
This is it, boy. This is the big show.
1:03:49
And we're going to be in there
for the first shot.
1:03:52
Just how did you and I suddenly become
The Charge of the Light Brigade?
1:03:55
Charlie...
1:03:57
there's a lot more to this movie
than we knew about.
