Review of The Thin Red Line (1998) by Roger Ebert for Chicago Sun-Times — 17 Jul 1999
The movie's schizophrenia keeps it from greatness (this film has no firm idea of what it is about), but doesn't make it bad. It is, in fact, sort of fascinating: a film in the act of becoming, a field trial, an experiment in which a dreamy poet meditates on stark reality.
