As U.S. troops storm the beaches of Normandy, three brothers lie dead on the battlefield, with a fourth trapped behind enemy lines. Ranger captain Tom Hanks and seven men are tasked with penetrating German-held territory and bringing the boy home. Steven Spielberg and cinematographer Janusz Kaminski paint a harrowing picture of the price of war and heroism -- one that netted them Oscars for Best Director and Best Cinematography, respectively

Following the disappointments of THE LOST WORLD: JURASSIC PARK (1997) and AIMSTAD (1997), many people begun to wonder if Steven Spielberg had started to lose his touch, especially after winning a Best Director Oscar for the powerful SCHINDLER'S LIST (1993). However, he proves them that he hasn't lost his touch when SAVING PRIVATE RYAN (1998) came out in Summer 1998.
One of the main things that SAVING PRIVATE RYAN will be remembered for is the horrifiying 25-minute opening scene of the D-Day Landings. It feels more like a documentary filmed on the battleground rather than being a movie.

Featuring superb cinematography and fine performances (notably from Tom Hanks), SAVING PRIVATE RYAN is another powerful and moving World War II movie from Spielberg.
