The United States Marines is lookin' for a few good men - and you ain't it.

3.  What movie is this?

It is a war movie released in 1999.  It was written and directed by David Russell from a story idea by comedian John Ridley.  The movie was a moderate success at the box office, but was critically acclaimed.  At the time of filming, the lead was a TV star hoping to make a splash in movies.  He worked hard to get the reluctant Russell to cast him.  Spike Jonze made his acting debut in the film.  The movie is set in March, 1991 – “the war has just ended’.  This is a reference to the Persian Gulf War.
