Original, Unique War movie

Rating: Null/10 (5 September 2004)

This movie was very good because it was so original. The script and the shots from the film is very poetic and artistic which i like a lot. This film is almost the complete opposite of Black Hawk Down because it focused more on drama than constant fighting. But There's one thing that bothers me about this movie. Why is the movie called the thin red line? I remember they had a shot of a thin red line in the beginning in the ship prison but i still don't get the significance. Usually movies explain the title or its self-explanatory but this one definitely doesn't. I don't even remember anyone saying "thin red line" in the movie. If anyone who reads this understands the symbolism please post a comment on it. If not ill try message boards.
