mo lester 0 Posted March 31, 2011 The Omaha Beach scene is so sobering. What a great movie. I remember when I saw it at the movie-plex and noticed how quiet the theatre was when everyone was walking out. Barely heard a sound. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember when I saw it at the movie-plex and noticed how quiet the theatre was when everyone was walking out. Barely heard a sound. The old timers were sobbing... excellent movie... still can't watch the scene where the guy is too afraid to bring the ammunition at the end... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mobb_deep 919 Posted March 31, 2011 Love this movie. Best war film in history IMO. I do love Apocalypse Now and The Deer Hunter quite a bit too though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rusty Syringes 478 Posted March 31, 2011 My dad was a WWII bomber navigator, and I saw it with him. It was the only time I ever saw him shed a tear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BunnysBastatrds 2,186 Posted March 31, 2011 Every kid entering high school should be required to watch it. Best war movie ever made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shovelheadt 68 Posted March 31, 2011 The old timers were sobbing... excellent movie... still can't watch the scene where the guy is too afraid to bring the ammunition at the end... Platoon had this exact same effect, along with the same comments being said about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shovelheadt 68 Posted March 31, 2011 The Omaha Beach scene is so sobering. What a great movie. That's 2 movies Hanks has been in where I said 'that's the best scene of its type that I've ever seen'. The other one was the plane crash in Castaway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
