Top Comments of this video!! :3
Ryan's wife at the end always kills me... the way she reads the tombstone, the way she reacts to when she's asked, "Tell me I led a good life, tell me I'm a good man" and looks back at the tombstone... she built a life with Ryan, had kids, had grandkids... and in those 30 seconds, she shows that he never talked about any of that, even with her, in all those years. She never heard of Miller, had no idea that man had such an effect on her husband. The shortest but most critical performance.

I think I was 21 when I first saw this movie. The story Wade tells about pretending to sleep so he didn't have to talk to his Mom floored me. I had never felt so sympathetic to anything in my life than I did to his guilt. He wasn't being malicious or petty. He was just tired and wanted to get to sleep. But he regretted not giving his Mom that five minutes.
I'm pushing 50 now. I recently lost my Mom after she endured a prolonged illness. I wish I had given her those five minutes.
We're all busy. We all have jobs and responsibilities. It's easy to get caught up in our day to day routines or become embroiled in unexpected life events. We promise ourselves we'll catch up with our parents or other loved ones when we have the time. Unfortunately, it's also easy to keep kicking that promise down the road.
Give your parents that five minutes. Hell, give them 10 or 15. It's time well spent.

18:00 There's another aspect to Wade's second shot of morphine, in that the squads usually only had 1 syrette per soldier, if not less, so the group agreeing to his second shot to ease the pain of his inevitable death meant that the surviving members of the squad knew there was the potential of them getting hit later, but not having morphine since they doubled Wade's. It's another example of the sacrifices these men made for their friends; to ease Wade's death was, more than likely, going to mean painful death of the survivors in later engagements due to not having enough morphine left, but they did it anyway. Heartbreaking, but clearly illustrated the love and devotion they had for their fellow soldiers, their brothers...

Fun fact, at 18:33, he is not unloading them. He is disabling them by removing the trigger group.

One of the details I noticed most is when they land, Cpt Miller starts out on dry land but when he comes out of his daze, he's back up to his waist in water. I think it's a nod towards how long the battle for Omaha actually took. 20 minutes in screen time but in reality it was more like 8 -12 hours. It shows that the tide had come in by the time he was able to figure out a plan.

So when I was in 6th grade we had to interview someone who was alive in ww2. Everyone interviewed their bad ass grandpa. But I didn't I interviewed my great grandma. She was the person who had to type up all the letters. It was so heart breaking and I was so grateful that I was able to help tell her story. People forget people like her. My grandfather said that in his entire life she never once spoke about it until I came along. That made me feel special and blessed. It really made realize how war effects Everyone. They don't make movies about the depressed emotionally destroyed lonely women constantly writing these. Worrying the next one could be her own son.

18:00 - Morphine given to medic scene: I was a Navy Corpsman, a medic for the Marine Corps. Wade asking for even one dose of Morphine is a sign he thinks he's going to die, that's why they were even hesitant to give the 1st one. Typically you want a wounded combatant to feel pain, it's something they can focus on to stay conscious. Now, too much pain can make someone go into shock and pass out. Morphine is what's called a vasodiolator, it makes vessels open up, and when you lose blood you're blood pressure goes down, so opening up your vessels some will make it drop even further. In combat, pain killers are typically given to help a dying combatant, not for pain management but to ease their suffering when death is guaranteed

As a retired Army vet, this movie makes me cry every single time. Ryan asking his wife if the sacrifices for him were worth it is absolutely soul crushing. Great breakdown and I wasn’t expecting or prepared for you to do this movie. It will affect the rest of my night. But thank you for great work as always.

My grandpa landed at Normandy (day 3 luckily for me) and fought across France into Germany as a radio operator for a AAA battalion.
I remember watcging this with him, and him saying the never-ending rain and trudging though muddy streets and hedgerows in France was extremely accurate, the feeling of being soaked head to toe, all the time.

21:12 I always thought he started missing his shots because he stopped saying his prayer. Saying his prayer kept him calm and centered and when he stops saying it he loses his cool and misses his shots.
