Paths of Glory
During World War I, commanding officer General Broulard requests his subordinate to attack a German trench position. Though the mission is unkind into the point of suicide, even Mireau controls Colonel Dax, his own subordinate, to plan the attack. General Mireau demands the court-martial of three soldiers that are arbitrary in order to help save face when it leads to disaster.
