I should have probably not listened to this one and go for the real thing, the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Caine Mutiny. The price of short cuts? It is well done, and well played, but I believe that so many of the nuances are getting lost in the translation to a play or a movie. And there are some great ideas, but the implementation is lacking because it is so short. I might still go to the origin in the future, but I have now all the spoilers, and the blame is on me. So I guess my best advice is to read the book and skip this one. 2.5 stars, and I feel pretty generous.
