...nominee, but both were hugely influential in the film community. Malick's limited filmography has only made him more of a critical darling--so far, he's three for three. His work in The Thin Red Line is clearly that of a mature artist, but the film's metaphysical slant sticks its creator with an "arty" label that is somewhat limiting...
Amidst all the hubbub and shaved body parts, Roulleau quietly steals the show as helpless romantic Eiffel. With his searching blue eyes and soft-on-the-ears pseudo-accent, Roulleau simmers and bubbles into, well, a frothy soufflé.

On first down from the Holy Cross 24-yard line, he lofted a pass to the front right corner of the end zone to Wilske, who was running a deep slant. Two stepsfrom the ball, Wilske stumbled and the passdropped to the ground...
