Only one person loves the war lover, an orphaned Korean boy named Charlie (Tommy Matsuda). A bruising struggle to mold Charlie's developing personality begins between Endore and another private, Loomis (Robert Redford).

They share a snack and a movie and get caught in the rain, that sly love god of synthetic playwrights. At the apartment she shares with her brother, they get out of their wet things and into...
