talking to a bunch of people(is paul newman in this)

This is 'Hell is for Heroes' (with Steve McQueen, not Paul Newman), which also got mentioned in the 'Best War Movies' thread on this forum. Even if you don't like that scene with Bob Newhart (which I did), I seem to recall that the rest of the movie wasn't too bad, at any rate not a serious candidate for 'Worst War Movie of All Time' when you have turkeys like 'Pearl Harbor' contending for the title ;)
