Movie Haiku:The central conflict in this WWII combat flick is within Sgt. Enders (Cage). Navajo Indians have developed a code the Marines need to confuse the Japanese. Ender’s orders are to “protect the code” at all costs. But Enders loses his confidence as he & his code-talker (Beach) bond under fire.
