Despite leaving the Oscars empty-handed, The Thin Red Line has left an impression that can still be felt three decades later. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Terrence Malick, the war epic marked his return to cinema after a 20-year absence. Malick also penned the script as well, which was based on the 1962 novel by author James Jones.
The film follows the men of C Company, 1st Battalion, 27th Infantry Regiment, 25th Infantry Division. They have been tasked with securing Henderson Field on the island of Guadalcanal. After landing on the island, the company is met with little resistance, giving them time to reflect on their own lives.
