Review: 'The Line,' a four-part documentary on Apple TV+, looks at former Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher
Strictly from a public-relations standpoint, one of the knottier problems facing former Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher—never mind the entire Special Operations branch of the U.S. military—was the intervention of Donald Trump during Mr. Gallagher’s 2018 prosecution for war crimes in Iraq. Coming as it did before a trial had even started, Mr. Trump’s involvement, rightly or wrongly, impliedthat Mr. Gallagher was guilty or innocent, but that the crimes he was accused of didn’t matter.
“The Line” is a corrective of sorts—often thrilling, close to thorough and remarkably evenhanded: The interviewees in this captivating four-part documentary include Mr. Gallagher himself, who appears throughout the series and is as solid a witness as his defense team might have dreamed of. Some of the human pieces of the puzzle, such as it is, are MIA. But the nuances of the case, which sometimes got lost in the headlines, receive the attention they deserve.
