S3 Ep18: Saving Private Ryan (1998)

“Maymorial Day” begins on the beaches of Normandy with 1998’s classic, “Saving Private Ryan”!

“Saving Private Ryan” has cemented itself as required viewing for audiences everywhere since its release, rightfully earning its place as what many regard as the greatest war film ever made. With Steven Spielberg at the helm of an all-star cast and heart-wrenching story of the quest to bring a soldier home from the blood-soaked battlefields of World War II, “Saving Private Ryan” continues to set the bar for all that follow in its genre. Notorious for its haunting realism, particularly in its opening sequence that depicts the D-Day invasion on Omaha beach, the film provides a window into not only the violence it depicts, but the horrors of the single deadliest event in human history. As the GoodKnight Movie Club honors all those that have paid the ultimate sacrifice on the field of battle, we remind ourselves that the most jarring and difficult parts of this movie, are ones that actually happened.
