It's like small variations in cuts of movie and/or TV series releases that are the fodder for so many interpretations of the media :-)

Cool.

Sorkin did in fact change the play script after the movie was made. The original script as performed on Broadway is much stronger than the re-worked script, in my opinion. The writing isn't as self-aware; the "new-and-improved script" is sloppy, redundant, and missing some true gems that made the original so unique. Pity.

Remembering the "blowjob" line from Jessup, when Kaffee and Galloway are leaving Gitmo there is a line in the play that is NOT in the movie: Jessup: Joanne - How about I shut my eyes and pretend I'm just a Chief Petty Officer. You've still got an hour before your plane leaves, what do you say? Galloway: (Turns to Jessup) That would be fine, but what would I do with the other 59 minutes, Sir ?? ---------------------------------------- I'm betting Nicholson refused to let them do it ;-)

Earl Burton The rewrite in the film is stronger. Being that the movie revolves around the military, there are many protocols that Sorkin takes license with but the blowjob line as written in the play, from an officer junior to Jessup, could have gotten her a court-martial.
