    Paul Newman.... Don't know many of his films, Cool hand Luke? I figure it can't be Butch Cassidy.

    No. It's even older. Though not much ;)

    But this sentence is not spoken 'in action'. It's a quote from a 'banquet speech' in which a parable is told.

    No and No.

    It's not a war movie. But it's about war and what it does to people.
    This banquet speech is held by a senior bank clerk who had just returned from his military service in WW2 ...
