What The Thin Red Line Is About
Terrence Malick's 1998 film covers the taking of a hill on Guadalcanal in the second world war. The soldiers in the unit are heard one by one. None of them stands at the centre. The film sets war against nature; the narrative uses its voiceovers as inner thought and drains the battle of meaning. The cast is large and many actors' scenes were shortened in the edit. It runs close to three hours. It received seven nominations. Who it's for: those who like poetic, slow war films. Who it's not for: viewers expecting a conventional war narrative; the film deliberately disperses it.
