I am sure this movie is discussed somewhere on the forum: here's my take.
There's a really wonderful horror movie called The Thin red line.
Firstly this is a spoiler alert my love, a spoiler alert.
It follows the character-- a christ-like character called Witt-- who sees love in every living thing and even in a war time.
He finds it whether it's love for Charlie company, his unit, whether it's love for the local people on the island, and he sees love of what many see as an enemy (Japanese). He just sees love and many things and this is beautifully conveyed, because he understands the perspective of all the people involved in the Battle of Guadalcanal.
Each person has a voice and of course many screaming voices.
The action is intense you can feel the razor grass and the bullets and the fear in each soldier.
Another main character played by Sean Penn and I can't even remember his name but let's just calling Sean Penn LOL,
he sees through a lot of the lies of what's going on; that the war is really all about fight for property and selfish advancement.
Sean Penn doesn't quite understand Witt and what he with knows about to powers in the world. Witt asks him--"Do you ever get lonely?"
And Penn answers "only when I'm around people."
all things bright and beautiful all creatures great and small all things wise and wonderful the Lord God made them all.
But he sees and knows, despite my thoughts Penn was psychotic ordering Witt around. That it's, all the war is all a lie, that there is a power that wants us dead, makes So feel very much alone.
Because of that he doesn't want to be around most people--because he knows they're full of shit.
For him the challenges is to love; he's not ready for that.
Let you understand that this story--it's about love--it's the message.
For someone like myself who has projected anger outwardly alot, it's quite a visceral experience to see the fruits of self-destruction.
T,here is a picture of, I think it's a kiwi, struggling for life Disturbed from the nest from the bullets flying overhead. DCM smiles with beauty even at death.
Witt himself draws inspiration from his true love who is back home in the States.
His interaction with her is in many ways quite sexual but it's well done as they have their clothes on. At first I was a little put off by the sex/union themes which is surprising I know. They are a part of each other and really it's more about a love that is timeless.
These scenes, and the beautiful narration, give a sense of the hyperdimentional nature of war.
Intense action that is realistically portrayed is counterbalanced, if you will, by a star-studded cast that kind of tries to ham it up.
Many directors make the mistake of attempting to create a very concrete or hyper-reality, without understanding the nuance and humor of the interdimensional and hyperdimensional nature of reality.
And this movie really speaks to that--about the presence of evil in the world. It's a tear-jerker and the message is love.
People talk too much about love but the grid and the realism and the absolute in humanity it is portrayed in the film with incredible cinematography beautiful scenes of nature in all its forms my goodness.
This movie doesn't shirk from reality,rather it expands it into a hyperdimensional commentary.
How many movies do that,how many movies?--not many.
