Conduct Unbecoming

Adapted from the long-running stage play, Conduct Unbecoming is a gem of 1970s British cinema. The gripping story unfolds within a British regiment stationed in colonial India near the end of the 19th century. When the wife of a deceased soldier is assaulted, a court-martial hearing is quickly convened. Assigned to defend the accused, Lieutenant Arthur Drake (Michael York) finds his idealism question as his inquiries uncover a conspiracy that threatens the military's very code of honor.
