Last Letters from Monte Rosa
This movie re-examines the Second World War from the perspective of an ill-fated German Army Platoon waiting out their final days in Northern Italy.
The saga begins in 1944, when Lieutenant Brüchner must contend with the ill plight of his men: starving and desperately in need of reinforcements. When they finally show up, the reinforcements refuse to fight against their fellow countrymen, in a battle that they uniformly perceive as a lost cause.
Saving Private Ryan
After fighting in the battle of Omaha beach D-Day, veteran Captain John Miller (Tom Hanks) is sent on a WWII rescue mission to find paratrooper Private James Ryan (Matt Damon) and bring him home. Ryan’s three brothers have all been killed in action and the Army wants him returned to his family. The paratroops of the 82nd Airborne are scattered far and wide though, and finding Ryan proves far from easy.
Hard-bitten Rangers (Hanks, Tom Sizemore, Edward Burns, Barry Pepper, Adam Goldberg, Vin Diesel, Giovanni Ribisi) are joined by an interpreter, Corporal Upham (Jeremy Davies). Upham has no combat experience, and is held in contempt by the veteran soldiers on the mission. Several of Miller’s men are killed in incidents, but they do eventually locate Ryan — who refuses to leave his unit! His squad of paratroops is tasked to hold a key bridge, and Ryan insists on doing just that. Capt. Miller and the surviving Rangers agree to help.
The film’s central question (When is one life more important than another?) is never really answered. For those who are willing to brave the movie’s shocking and unforgettable images, Saving Private Ryan offers a singular motion picture experience
