If "they don't make 'em like they used to" is a thing you say about movies, "Devotion" is for you.
There's a Gary-Cooper-bravely-going-into-battle vibe to the fact-based drama, set during the Korean War. Jonathan Majors plays Ensign Jesse Brown, who broke racial barriers among Navy pilots in 1950. Glen Powell, in his second airman-who-doesn't-play-by-the-rules role of the year (after "Top Gun: Maverick"), plays colleague Tom Hudner, who serves alongside him and becomes his lone buddy.
Majors ("The Last Black Man in San Francisco," "Lovecraft Country") has been on the verge of big stardom for a few years, and "Devotion" could be the movie that finally does it for him.
