Why have I not heard of this movie before? I watched "The Thin Red Line" last night with my husband and was totally blown away. Seriously it's a peice of art. I found myself transposed into this dream world where the meaning of peace was so delicate and fragile but so vital. It came out the same time as "Saving Private Ryan" so I can understand why one was more heard of. I guess most people preffered the war movie that gave you hope. I would say though that the movie last night spoke more of why we need peace. Here are just a few of the amazing quotes from the movie that trully shift your thoughts:
"Are you righteous? Kind? Does your confidence lie in this? Are you loved by all? Know that I was, too. Do you imagine your suffering will be any less because you loved goodness and truth?"
"This great evil. Where does it come from? How'd it steal into the world? What seed, what root did it grow from? Who's doin' this? Who's killin' us? Robbing us of life and light. Mockin' us with the sight of what we might've known. Does our ruin benefit the earth? Does it help the grass to grow, the sun to shine? Is this darkness in you, too? Have you passed to this night?"
