Review of The Thin Red Line (1998) by Mattbrady99 — 17 Jan 2022
Private Witt: "Do you ever feel lonely?".
First Sgt. Edward Welsh: "Only around people." It was poor timing for this to come out the same year as 'Saving Private Ryan', as this would often get overshadowed, which it doesn't deserve to. 'ThePrivate Witt: "Do you ever feel lonely?".

It was poor timing for this to come out the same year as 'Saving Private Ryan', as this would often get overshadowed, which it doesn't deserve to. 'The Thin Red Line' is Terrence Malick at his most poetic. I was honestly surprised by how many celebrates made an appearance, which due to the style of editing out famous people, they appearances turned into cameos. Adrien Brody was the most famous 'film extra' of all time.
Out of all the World War 2 movies, not one of them felt this unique and spiritual, and that hasn't been topped yet.
