Going Your Own Way or Playing Ball: Are You a Prewitt or a Warden?

Robert E. Lee Prewitt (Montgomery Clift):
"A man don't go his own way, he's nothing."

Sergeant Milton Warden (Burt Lancaster):
"Maybe back in the days of the pioneers a man could go his own way, but today you got to play ball."

-From Here To Eternity (1953)

Definitely a Prewitt.

Love that movie. It was back before Montgomery started to seem unwell.
