Watching Band of Brothers with the wife! The movie follows Easy-company from their training in England, through D-Day, the rest of France, Holland, Germany and Austria. This story is shown to us in ten different episodes. Every episode starts with the real men from Easy-company telling about their experiences and ends with a short written update of Easy-company. The casting is amazing. Even David Schwimmer (from Friends) as the bitter Captain Sobel is great. Damian Lewis and Ron Livingston are superb as Major Winters and Captain Lewis Nixon. Every actor seems to be perfect for his character. The photography and direction is great also. You really learn to know the characters (in 600 minutes you can do that), you sympathize with them. If you have the chance to see this masterpiece, do so. It is long but you can spread the episodes over some days. But if you start watching it is very hard to stop. In my humble opinion, definitely the best WW-II movies or series out there.
