...lago of this interlude is a cadet officer named Jocko De Paris (Ben Gazzara), a rising young sadist who has already learned that it is not enough to torture people-the real satisfaction comes when they can be made to beg for it. By an intricate series of Machiavellian maneuvers, De Paris involves four cadets, who think the whole sinister business is an almost innocent practical joke, in a plot. The idea is to siphon a mort of whisky through an enema nozzle into a fifth cadet and deposit his senseless body on the quadrangle one dark night. Next morning...

His Marty is fully what the author intended him to be-a Hamlet of butchers...
