I sent this song to my Mum,, one of he last times I had a call with her as she was at the hospital. This is a song from the Thin Red Line's soundtrack, A Terence Malick's war movie. Very underrated in my very humble opinion. As I am due to leave her 'empty' home I find myself thinking of all the times I left and was hoping not to be the last time. As frail as you were for so many years. it is hard to find peace and I know such void will stay with me for some time, forever, while carving itself into different shapes and sizes. Don't get me wrong, I use some degree of stoicism and self preservation, I just need to keep holding myself from elaborating such loss "all at once" as a service to protect myself and also my son. It comes in waves as clouds come and go, rain pours down a few seconds while we think about her, and a glimpse of light come out with those rays that my grandma said her girl were "the fingers of god reaching us". She was at the hospital, and she wasn't allowed to see anyone due to covid restrictions, not yet lifted. She has fought a war as frail as she could be in that moment, she was sending messages and letters to us. It seems she was preparing for it, while hoping and fighting. I am unsure if really they did all they could to save her. We felt powerless. Did they step into her light? She liked the song but I don't know if she could really listen to it, surrounded by all the noise and devices around her hears and head. My Mum was born into a Christian-Catholic family and society, she later became an atheist. She was born from a father who fought one of the most cruel battles of the first world war and later died due to the injuries as my mum was very young. She became a teacher, a pedagogy teacher. She kept her sense of community and dived into others', and kept her respect and supporting for others. The small things were very important for her. In the last weeks, and especially in the last days, she found peace praying, with her friends, with my sister, some times at night. There is a lot about about religion in Terence Malick's movies. But there is more, a deep sense of meaning and spirituality that goes beyond the religious norm, often harmed by the "meaning of ownership". That's so close to me, and very close to Mum, Mum who - not just - with photography, communicated with stories of people and children. This song is called "light". There is no darkness without light, once I read. I hear the sounds of memories and events. I reach out to you for confirmation that I remember right? I also hope to please, forgive me for anything I could have done better and I simply didn't have the capacity for. It is a calming song, of a movie about war, about the cruelty and beauty of life and an attempt to put the ultimate sacrifice and loss in its place.. In all the fight, I hope I gave her a seed of calm and hope. She fought her final battle. I really caught myself feeling: "She loved kindness, she loved goodness and she was righteous, did she suffer less? Does anyone suffer less because of their qualities?" I hope she rests in peace. I hope we will meet again. Actually, we are we are a bit, when I/we can see a glimpse of your light through seemingly random events where. I also find some calm at times, some peacefulness in this terrible loss, you whom are hugging us reading this. You, me, we didn't deserve to go through such pain. Thank you. Grazie. Rest in peace Mum, and wonderful Grandma too.
I think this music is played just when Cpt. Staros is about to leave. Personally I felt that was the moment the guys came to realise they had lost their father figure from the battlefield - that's what Staros tells them, verbatim: "You've been like my sons". Then we cut to the airplane taking off, we hear Staros say: "you'll live inside of me now". But really, it's like the fatherly care, affection, had infused all the guys left behind. Then we cut to different shots, but the most important is the one of the guy who had stolen the golden teeth from Japanese corpse, and had nagged the Japanese officer previously. He thrown away the impure loot. He came to the full realization of his wrongs. It's never verbalized, but we see that understands that what he did was just, wrong.
Thank you. Would you please help me find it in the movie? Any clips here on TH-cam? I owe it to my mum. I just wrote a comment about her under this video and after that, reading your message makes it so close... Thank you so much for your pointing and describing that scene. I have goosebumps.
This is the most hauntingly beautiful song I've ever heard. Zimmer simply nailed it with that movie, though I know it almost killed him, it was so hard.

Thank you! I’ve been searching for this part all day.
Great, absolut Great!
So beautiful and haunting
In this movie, the music is a character as well...
This is like the remix for "To Know My Enemy" from The Last Samurai soundtrack
Whenever I listen, I think of the ALMIGHTY GOD who is pure light shining in my darkness!!
Beautiful music
Just read the New Testament and relax.
