Saving Private Ryan Omaha Beach Scene [4K HDR]

[lessthanthreemetal]

This is thought to be the most accurate depiction of war ever put to film. Hundreds of veterans walked out of seeing it in theaters because it was too much to take in.

The way Spielberg added the guy missing an arm casually looking for it seemingly unbothered masterfully but horrifically displayed the shock from the intensity of the situation.

Imagine living for 18-30 years, then going through weeks of demanding training, just be shot dead immediately after the landing boat door opens.

My grandfather was an 18 year old medic in the war and endured the horror of the beaches on D-Day, as well as the frozen nightmare at Battle of the Bulge. He saved several lives by carrying them over his shoulders to safety. He told my mother that while carrying a man in the forest, trying to run in the snow, a German tank rolled up and stopped right in front of him, and he could see the driver’s eyes staring right at him. He thought he was done for sure. They let him pass, though, and continued to roll on through. Just proves they were all human out there. I will never forget the sacrifices of these brave men and women. It’s because of them that we have all that we do today.

The way that the actors and film writers demonstrate the PTSD and shell shock of the soldiers is really a work of art and truth

The way that soldier was bleeding out and shouting for his mother broke my heart. War is truly hell in a different form

[tonyhawk]

On the 79th anniversary I’d like to say a thanks to all the brave men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice on June 6th 1944, lest we forget

[joeybonfante]

Anyone watching this on d day to remind themselves of how grateful we are of these men and their ultimate sacrifice?

[el_puma_real]

80 years on, don’t let the ultimate sacrifice of these men ever fade away. Fight authoritarianism and fascism even when it comes creeping onto our shores. God bless ALL these men.

My grandpa was actually there .. and survived to tell the tale. I miss him dearly 😢

[TheGloopOfMobius]

Nine minutes? NINE MINUTES? This felt like a goddamn eternity. Absolutely riveting, absolutely terrifying and nightmarish.. f ucking incredible film, every scene has purpose, weight, beauty, emotion, horror to it. One of Spielberg’s best

[UniformPoet]

You know how gruesomely accurate this scene is when many veterans walked out of the theaters having relived that trauma from June 6, 1944 and a hotline had to be established for those veterans.

[SomeBuddy_]

To think every dead soldier on the beach that day, without a doubt had some form of family back home and they definitely had no clue the horrible fate that fell upon their loved one. Tells you how horrific war truly is and that none of us will ever really comprehend how hellish this entire battle was.

My grandpa said the vomit in the landing vehicle was ankle deep, but he was to scared to care. Five years later his sister got married and it turned out the groom's best man drove the landing vehicle my grandpa was in.

[Moreofafellabeller]

This depiction of D day was so realistic that the veterans in theaters immediately left after seeing it. That's how realistic and gruesome it is.

June 6th, 2024. Still in reverence of their achievement today

The kid yelling for his mom, holding his intestines in always gives me chills when i watch this movie..because thats how this entire scenario literally took place, they all walked into a slaughter and the lucky few story you hear from vets are usually 100% true, they may hold back on a few things but every one of these guys were real heros

[robbieknox]

I’m British. I remember going to Normandy in the mid 90’s as a young kid. On the ferry back, a Canadian veteran was coming back with us. It was the 50th anniversary. He was the last of his brothers to survive. He gave me a Canadian pin and wished us all well. You don’t realise how emotional it must’ve been for him to have relived that. There are no winners in war. I’ve been a few more times since. The beachers still have the scars and evidence from all those years ago. You can swim out to the reminents of the gun towers. It’s a very sober experience.

80 years today, just here to leave my love and respect to the greatest generation ❤️
