The Thin Red Line (1998)

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 through this night?

Oh Witt…you beautiful soul!   Great job Jimmy!

This scene was so beautifully done; absolutely heartrending.

“I remember my mother when she was dyin’, looked all shrunk up and gray. I asked her if she was afraid. She just shook her head. I was afraid to touch the death I seen in her. I couldn’t find nothin’ beautiful or uplifting about her goin’ back to God. I heard of people talk about immortality, but I ain’t seen it. I wondered how it’d be like when I died, what it’d be like to know this breath now was the last one you was ever gonna draw. I just hope I can meet it the same way she did, with the same… calm. ‘Cause that’s where it’s hidden - the immortality I hadn’t seen.”

- There ain’t no world but this one.
- You’re wrong there, Top. I’ve seen another world.

You haven’t changed at all, have you, Witt? All a man has to do is leave it to you, you’ll put your head in the noose for him.
