The Longest Day (1962)
Tuesday, June 5th, 2007I tell you, Flanagan, there are some pretty peculiar blokes on this beach.
Darryl Zanuck’s multi-national epic occasionally plays like an academic lecture on the events of June 5 and 6, 1944, albeit an interesting lecture with some really cool film. The Longest Day covers the first twenty-four hours of the invasion of France from American, British, French and German perspectives, employing separate directors for each nationality and shooting in the native languages of those involved. This gives the film a level of authenticity that was fairly atypical of war movies of the time.
Director: Andrew Marton, Bernhard Wicki, Ken Annakin | Released: 1962 | 178 min. | Rated: Not rated | Genres: Based on a Book, War
