The Thin Red Line

This film was my absolute favorite. From the music to the disconnected narrative in the beginning It felt like there was this unique undertone which I had not felt in other movies we had watched. The power of war is portrayed so beautifully in this film. The use of character and cinematography to lay out the deep problems of this period allowed the film to ebb and flow. I was surprised to find this film was not just a war film, it was a piece of art. The emotions I felt from this film were like nothing I had ever felt before. The power of war and the power of human emotion created a fear and willingness within me. I wanted to participate in the situation with my mind and body. I was pulled from my chair and inserted into the film. It was amazing to watch and I finally need to watch all of it with no interruptions.
