The Last Detail

Based on the novel by Darryl Ponicsan, this often funny and always off-color look at life, Navy-style, follows sailors Billy Buddusky (Jack Nicholson) and Richard Mulhall (Otis Young) as they're assigned to escort Larry Meadows (Randy Quaid), a young seaman convicted of theft, to a naval prison. While traveling from Virginia to Maine, Buddusky and Mulhall decide to give Meadows a raucous "going away party" that he'll never forget. With Clifton James, Carol Kane, Michael Moriarty. 104 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English. Two-disc set.
