Today is the 70-year anniversary of D-Day: the day Allied troops invaded at the beaches of Normandy, France. It was the largest seaborne invasion in history, & all over the world...global leaders, dignitaries & WWII veterans paused to commemorate this moment in history. In the 1998 film Saving Private Ryan, director Steven Spielberg hired Paul Fussell - veteran and critic - & WWII historian Stephen Ambrose as consultants. Its no wonder this blockbuster is known for achieving a new level of accuracy in its depiction of the D-day invasion. theguardian/world/2014/jun/06/d-day-landings-on-film-hollywoods-wwii-tributes #DDay #WWII #veterans #film #history #SavingPrivateRyan #war #conflict #beach #normandy #france #invasion #movies #MattDamon #Spielberg #StevenSpielberg #Hollywood #Filmmaker #WorldWar #critic #blockbuster
