  • The Thin Red Line – Terrence Malick’s Haunting War Epic
    Jul 21 2025

    In this episode of The Clean Slate Podcast, we dive deep into Terrence Malick’s 1998 war film The Thin Red Line. Often overshadowed by Saving Private Ryan, Malick’s take on the Pacific theater is more meditative than action-packed — a poetic exploration of nature, violence, and the human soul.


    We break down how The Thin Red Line defies typical war movie conventions, discuss the film’s sprawling ensemble cast, and reflect on Malick’s signature voiceover style, fragmented narrative, and spiritual themes. Is it one of the greatest war films ever made—or a misunderstood masterpiece?


    Join us as we give this modern classic a clean slate.

  • Red Rooms: A horrifying Court Room drama
    Jun 9 2025

    How far would you go just to see something?

    Red Rooms (Les chambres rouges) is a chilling descent into obsession, voyeurism, and the darkest corners of the internet. This French psychological thriller follows a woman fixated on the trial of a man accused of livestreaming murders—and the deeper she goes, the blurrier the line becomes between spectator and participant.


    In our review, we break down how the film uses silence, cold framing, and restraint to build unbearable tension. It’s not gory, but it gets under your skin. If you’re into courtroom thrillers with a disturbing moral edge, Red Rooms might just haunt you.
