«La delgada línea roja» is Francisco Javier Tovar Paz's essay on Terrence Malick's film of the same name, published by Ediciones Akal in paperback (112 pages, in Spanish).
The book analyzes why «La delgada línea roja», by Terrence Malick, is considered a classic of war cinema since its release. Its approach draws on Greco-Latin classics to identify quotations and themes such as Homer, Sophocles, Virgil or Saint Paul, and concepts like nature, siege or the condition of the hero. It also compares the film with other movies about the Battle of Guadalcanal, with «Salvar al soldado Ryan», and with the novel by James Jones that inspires the story.
The study is part of Akal's Cine collection and also covers Malick's entire filmography, a director who was a philosopher before being a filmmaker.
