Curiosidades
Norman Mailer, the author of the best-selling and critically acclaimed novel on which the film is based, was reported to have said it was the worst movie he had ever seen after viewing the film.

Pifias
A recon team would never be landed behind enemy lines in broad daylight, and from a large, noisy landing craft. Then after they land there is a lot of talking in their normal voices and all the yelling with the snake bite scene, they cross open ground in daylight, and they smoke, which can also be a giveaway.

Citas
Lt. Robert Hearn: General... I've been thinking about what you said. Especially what you said about the power of fear and the fear of power. I never agreed with your point of view before, but I wasn't sure you were wrong. Now I'm sure. Two men carried me 18 miles through the jungle, a Baptist minister and a wandering Jew, but they didn't do it out of fear. They did it out of love. But they did something else besides save my life, they showed me something I've known all my life but I had forgotten. There's a spirit in man that'll survive all the reigns of terror and all the hardships. Man cannot achieve the authority of God. And no man, whether he's a politician or a general, should try. The spirit in man is God-like, eternal, indestructible.

Never read the book

And maybe if I had, I might like the movie less. (I read "The Thin Red Line" before I saw that movie and was, as I expected, disappointed despite the fact that that is a very fine film.) As it is, I like this film a lot. For one thing, it's got one of Bernard Hermann's best but least-known scores; I wish it were available on CD. The cast features an amazing array of '50s lead and supporting actors. L.Q. Jones is especially enjoyable as an amiable hillbilly (a role he specialized in) and Aldo Ray gives one of his finest performances as the hate-filled Sgt. Croft. Cliff Robertson is a little milque-toasty, but that's more because the role is underwritten. Raymond Massey is appropriately arrogant and high-handed as the general in charge of the campaign. If you can catch this film on TV, Turner Classic Movies is the place to see it because they letterbox it in its original 'scope aspect ratio, crucial to appreciating this film in all its widescreen glory. Trivia note: this was a favorite film of German auteur Rainier Werner Fassbinder.
