Scenes from The Thin Red Line (Terrence Malick: 1998) set to a hauntingly beautiful Journey to the Line by Hans Zimmer.

Re: The Thin Red Line
While many people swooned over Saving Private Ryan and its' combination of brutality with trademark Spielberg sentimentality, I've always thought that Thin Red Line was a waaaay superior outing, with a much more humane and philosophical approach, asking the really important questions. But hey, what else does one expect from Terrence Malick?

Four films in thirty years, four masterpieces:

- Badlands (1973)

- Days Of Heaven (1978)

- The Thin Red Line (1998)

- The New World (2005)

Filmmakers don't come smarter than this guy.

Re: The Thin Red Line
Many times have I tried convincing people of this film's superiority. Most people won't listen.

Regardless, it's easily in my top 10 films and I listen to the score constantly. Sublime work.
