G.I. Jane	comment	G.I. Jane is a 1997 action film directed by Ridley Scott, starring Demi Moore and Viggo Mortensen.Senator Lillian DeHaven of Texas (Anne Bancroft) publicly criticizes the United States Navy for its failure to integrate both male and female recruits to all its services. She strikes a deal, arranging for a series of test cases. A single woman will join each branch currently fully-staffed by males service and try to perform as well as her male colleagues. The first test case has Lieutenant Jordan O' Neil (Moore) joining the U.S. Navy Combined Reconnaissance Team.The Lieutenant has to contend with the brutal training regime of Command Master Chief John James Urgayle (Mortensen), trumped up charges of being a lesbian (violating the "Don't ask, don't tell" policy), attempts to relegate her to desk jobs, and double-crossing allies. Her graduation test involves an actual operation in the Libyan Desert.Not to confuse with G.I. Joe.

G.I. Jane / int_181c8a41	comment	Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace: Subverted. Before deploying the SEAL trainees, the submarine captain takes Urgayle aside and demands Brutal Honesty, saying that if Urgayle has any reason to believe they're not ready for real combat, he must say so now. Urgayle doesn't even hesitate:

G.I. Jane / int_1b39f70c	type	Womanliness as Pathos
G.I. Jane / int_1b39f70c	comment	Womanliness as Pathos: This trope is exploited by several characters to try and justify their beliefs that a woman is unfit to join and inherently disruptive to a Navy Seal unit. The main character, O'Neil, is put through miserable hazing and bullying, is accused of being a predatory lesbian, and Master Chief Urgayle begins to sexually assault her during a training exercise to show what is "likely" to happen to a woman captured by the enemy — an action that all of the male trainees fiercely object to but do not try to stop. O'Neil fights off Urgayle before things go too far, leaving it ambiguous whether or not he would have truly gone that far.

G.I. Jane / int_6eb4e408	type	Artistic License â€“ Military
G.I. Jane / int_6eb4e408	comment	Artistic License â€“ Military: The all-black "Johnny Cash" office uniform with black slacks and long-sleeved shirts worn by Lt. O'Neil and the Captain when she arrives at the training center, while technically a proper uniform for the time period, is extremely rare in everyday use. Most officers would use a khaki version of that uniform with short sleeves. When standing at attention just before training begins, all the trainees stand in ranks with their palms flat at their sides and arms fully extended in the European style. All American military branches stand at attention with their hands in fists and arms slightly bent so their hands sit at their hips. Time-sensitive special teams training may put somewhat severe limits on the time allowed for food, but certainly not enough to compel trainees to shove each other through the galley just to down a few mouthfulls. On the contrary, such trainees are normally encouraged to eat heartily, as the consistent training requires an increased calorie input to keep up. And, for health reasons if nothing else, they certainly aren't forced to eat out of garbage cans. The command master chiefs of any given command rarely involves himself with direct work in the same way Urgayle does with his instructors. The command master chief's job is to be the liason to the commanding officer in regards to matters and concerns involving enlisted personnel at the command. In a training command, he would have a say regarding the training cirriculum and preparation and in the guidelines as to how the instructors go about fulfilling such, but he personally would not be involved in the training evaluations himself.

G.I. Jane / int_a627a930	comment	Gender Is No Object: The film's aesop is that militaries should be this way. The main character runs into the gender barrier when she joins up for the grueling SEAL training program (even receiving preferential treatment at first that defeats the whole purpose of integration) not simply because she's a woman, but because Men Are the Expendable Gender. Interestingly, Master Chief Urgayle also cites a real-world limitation of this trope, discovered when the Israelis and Russians both tried to field gender-unified combat units: men seem to have an instinctual urge to protect women, even when the women in question are fellow soldiers. In the case of the Israelis, this led to a degradation of unit cohesion, as the male soldiers would abandon their mission to rescue wounded female colleagues. (The Russians abandoned the idea of employing female combat soldiers, while the Israelis began using segregated combat units of both all-male or all-female combat soldiers.)

Subverted; Blondell replies that she does ask the men the same question.

Truth in Television: SEREnote Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape school is universally reviled by everyone that goes through it and everyone that runs it, specifically because normal, reasonable circumstances are thrown out. The only rules are: nothing sexual, and the trainee can't be killed. Everything else is fair game. It messes with the trainees' heads (the thought that "They can't be allowed to do this" takes a while to go away), and the trainers' heads.

G.I. Jane / int_f2ec634a	comment	Things Get Real: The final phase of training, an operational readiness exercise, is interrupted by an emergency that requires the CRT trainees' support: A reconnaissance satellite powered by weapons-grade plutonium fell into the Libyan desert, and a team of U.S. Army Rangers was dispatched to retrieve the plutonium, but their evacuation plan failed, and the trainees are sent to assist the Rangers.

The other instructor is forced to leave when he raises a stink about it.
