Very true. Just like ET lost out to Ghandi. A very worthy subject, but typical Dickie Attenborough for piling on the bum numbing 3+ hours.
I've only watched ir twice, whereas ET is practically worn out.

And I still end up crying.

I love a good weepy me.
You know I only logged back in because, while I was trying to get to sleep, I realised that The Thin Red Line was a Terence Malik film. He's had such a prolific output

that I get mixed up with The Long Goodbye.
I'm pretty anal about films and I didn't want anyone thinking I was that dumb!
Though I'm far worse with tennis. I even know the names of most of the umpires.
That really does qualify for the "Get A Life" award.

I can go to sleep with a clear consience now.Woe and doom for all you workers. Happy clocking off times! t;s been fun.
btw Bohochick, you and I have scarily smilar tastes
