I'm the one that got that info, this was from a cameraman that shot with and
drove with Malick a few times during the shoot. Tom Lowellion can vouch for this
guy who posted a cpl of photos on Flickr.

I believe him . . .he also took photos of Malick which he cannot publish.

"We did talk about 'The Thin Red Line'.

He said he had over 6 hours of edited story finished. What you saw in the

theaters was what needed to be for the reps of a movie theater. I asked him if

he thought of releasing the 6 as a DVD box set and I assured him that there

would me a line of people just waiting to get their hands on it. He said that

some things that you put so much of your life and heart into are best left alone

for a few years."



I thought there was no such thing as a 6-hour cut of THE THIN RED LINE. Assuming
this is really straight from the horse's mouth, you mean it not only exists but
that it may be eventually released after "a few years"???



I still think rumor that it actually exists is a load of horse puckey....
