The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial Movie Quotes

Challee Sir, the witness is obviously and understandably agitated by this ordeal and I request a recess to give him a breathing space.

Lieutenant Commander Phillip Queeg I'm not agitated in the least. I'm glad to answer any and all questions. In fact, I-I demand the opportunity to set the record straight for any derogatory statements made about me in testimony that's gone before. I didn't make a single mistake in the 15 months I was aboard the Caine, and I-I can prove it. I've had a spotless record up until now and I don't want it being discredited by these lies and distortions told by these disloyal officers.

Captain Luther Blakely Commander, would you like a recess?

Lieutenant Commander Phillip Queeg Certainly not. In fact, if I had any say in this, I would ask there be no recess.

Greenwald So, I'm not gonna eat your dinner, drink your wine. I'll make my toast and go. So here's to you. Here's to Caine's favorite author. Here's to your book.

Greenwald Lieutenant, you are charged with relieving your captain willfully, without authority and without justifiable cause. Did you relieve Commander Queeg willfully?

Maryk Yes, I knew what I was doing.

Greenwald Did you relieve him without authority?

Maryk No, my authority is Chapter 11 of Navy Regulations.

Greenwald Did you relieve him without justifiable cause?

Maryk No. My justifiable cause was the captain's mental breakdown at a time when the ship was in danger.

Greenwald Thank you. No further questions.
