William Friedkin's Final Movie Is an Intense, Certified Fresh Masterpiece
William Friedkin’s final movie, The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial, is an intense courtroom drama starring Kiefer Sutherland and Lance Reddick.
One of the most legendary careers in Hollywood was capped off with a final film that, unfortunately, has slipped under the radar for many fans. William Friedkin, renowned for movies like The Exorcist and The French Connection, passed away in August 2023, but a few months later he gifted us one final film that was released on Showtime in October. The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial follows Kiefer Sutherland as Captain Queeg, an eccentric, old-school commanding officer who was relieved of command of a ship by a younger officer (Jake Lacy) during a dangerous storm and is now in the middle of a court-martial to determine whether the mutiny was necessary or a dangerous overreach.
