Yeah he played the guy who refused to rape the girl and then blew the whistle on his whole squad later on. And initially, nobody even gave a sh*t.
I'm a sucker for a good "based on true-life events" movie, when actually done well with a lean towards historical accuracy. And that's a really good one. But watching it and knowing that not only did this sh*t happen, the Real Life Events were actually even worse, makes it not a very feel-good movie.
BUT, it serves as a cold reminder than when push comes to shove, the only thing required for Evil to take place is for Good people to do nothing.
Sometimes, they do something, and it all works out. But not always. Not even most times, sadly.
Here's some of the actual events which inspired the movie.
