Buffalo Soldiers

A criminal subculture operates among U.S. soldiers stationed in West Germany just before the fall of the Berlin wall.

Details

Buffalo Soldiers (2001) is a captivating dark comedy set in West Germany during the final days of the Cold War. Within the U.S. military base, a criminal subculture thrives among the soldiers, taking advantage of the turbulent political climate.

The movie follows Ray Elwood (played by Joaquin Phoenix), a cunning and opportunistic soldier who runs various illegal activities on the base, such as black market trading and drug dealing. Elwood's world turns upside down with the arrival of the new top sergeant, Robert Lee (played by Scott Glenn), a strict and disciplined officer determined to bring order to the base.

As Elwood's illegal operations become endangered, he must use his wit and resourcefulness to stay one step ahead of Lee and other dangerous forces. Simultaneously, Elwood falls for a beautiful German woman, causing his already complicated life to become even more entangled.

Buffalo Soldiers is a thought-provoking film that sheds light on the moral dilemmas faced by soldiers stationed in a foreign land. It exposes the corruption and excess of power prevalent within the military and explores the impact of war on individual psyche. The film skillfully combines dark humor with stark realism, making it a compelling and enjoyable watch.
