- D-DAY MARATHON THE VOYAGE OF LST 534
6/6/2000
w/ Stephen Ambrose
(HB) A 10-hour marathon salutes the 56th anniversary of D-Day. • Onto Rugged Shores: Veteran broadcast journalist Howard K. Smith chronicles the crew of LST-534. • Modern Marvels looks at the Nazis' Atlantic Wall. • Sworn to Secrecy: Charlton Heston narrates "D-Day Deceptions," which examines how the Allies kept Nazi defenders off-balance about the time and place of the invasion. • Eisenhower: Warrior and President, Colin Powell hosts a five-part series recalling 20 years of the life of the 34th President and Supreme Allied Commander during D-Day.
- SECRET D-DAY: Chronicling a D-day exercise killing 800 servicemen.
- SAVING PRIVATE RYAN
(1999)
w/ Tom Hanks; Tom Sizemore; Matt Damon; Jeremy Davies & Edd Burns.
Spielberg's War-Film Epic Just in time for Memorial Day comes "Saving Private Ryan" (DreamWorks, available now). Steven Spielberg's stunning war memorial of a movie. Tom Hanks (above) leads his men on a mission behind Nazi lines in France. Their goal: Find a private (Matt Damon) whose three brothers have already been killed in combat, and get him to safety. Hanks gives the film its emotional and moral center, but the excellent ensemble cast (including Edward Burns and Tom Sizemore) makes his performance possible. And the justly celebrated D-day sequence— an inferno of blood, guts and terror—is undiminished on the small screen.
