36. "The Thin Red Line" (1998)

World War II Movie Night gets philosophical with Terrence
Malick's "The Thin Red Line." Released the same year as "Saving
Private Ryan," 1998, TTRL couldn't quite escape that movie's
shadow, although everyone thought it was good and some thought it
was one of the best movies ever made. What up? Find out as we
examine the movie that broke Malick's 20-year hiatus from
filmmaking... Asides include laughing for reasons other than
amusement and brilliant/reclusive artists, e.g., Thomas Pynchon
and My Bloody Valentine.
