Logline: After the Allied nations storm Normandy beach, a pack of U.S. soldiers (commanded by Captain John Miller (Hanks)) are informed that their new, sole mission is to find and retrieve an American soldier that lost all three of his brothers to the war.
Memorable Moments: The movie would have never been half as great if it weren’t for the opening scene, when Allied forces stormed Normandy beach. No one could ever forget the extremely gratuitous, graphic violence that served as an actual portrayal of the real event.
Why People Love It: Partly because it captures the nightmare that was Normandy Beach, and partly because so many veterans and their posterity can so closely relate to the film.
Best Quote: Capt. John Miller (Hanks): “He [Pvt. Ryan] better be worth it. He better go home and cure a disease, or invent a longer-lasting light bulb.”
