Cut off at the one of the best lines in the movie, "You know those five thousand ships the Allies don't have?! Well they have them and they are here!!!" (or something similar). Great movie.
Great movie, great cast, great acting I can almost quote every line. I made my dad take me to the theatre to see this when it came out I was 6 years old and still remember it like yesterday.
I have the DVD. The colorization is very good making the movie look more realistic and modern. Unfortunately it is a cropped 4:3 version but still very enjoyable. Hopefully one day the full scope version will be available in color and HD.

The two characters that always crack me up in this movie Hans Christian Blech’s character Pluscot on the beach just as the invasion started and the Luftwaffe pilot when he strafed D-day beach
Major Werner Pluskat (who, I believe, wasn't actually with his troops on the 6th June '44) and Lieutenant Colonel (later Colonel) Josef "Pips" Priller - I think both men acted as advisors for the making of the film too. They both cracked me up also, especially Pips when he said "If it's not too much trouble, would you mind telling me where the invasion is!"
@@ErstO1As I mentioned, I've only seen the colourized version once. They usually show the B&W version. I don't know why. God knows why they cast John Wayne into the film. He was awful.
Yes gerhadt frobe or goldfinger was the german sergeant on horseback before commencement of the naval allied bombardments.. Sean connery was private flanagan on sword beach
Much has been said and written about the delays in releasing the Panzer Reserves near Paris. The reality is that even *IF* they had been released immediately, they would not have arrived in Normandy until late on the next day at the earliest. Certainly, these reserves would have stopped, or slowed, some Allies' advances, but they would not have stopped the whole invasion from developing into a success.
There are three things to take in account come to close the coast and they get wiped out by the Battleships. They're at their most vulnerable when they're being moved on trains by being either blown up by the resistance (2) or roaming Typhoons & Hellcats(3). On the 10th June four days after D-day the 2nd TAF of the RAF took out the Panzer group West's HQ at the La Caine Mansion, which was 12miles S.W of the city of Caen! It took the Germans 18 days to get the HQ up and running again near Paris!
Quite correct, the Germans found that counter attacking was almost impossible with the weight of shell the Allies could being down on them plus complete air superiority
Xiliz Prime - I have no idea how to do that and if it needed a computer I could not do it. It is available from Raremovies.biz. Be aware that the colour may not be all that good, the definition is not as good as the Blu Ray, black and white, but the main issue is that it only shows about half of the original movies width at any given moment.
Same. The dog must've said this in his mind... "I sense a disturbance in the force, and it ain't the food I ate last night. So all you humans have fun shooting each other I'm outta here!"
Everytime I've watched this its been black and white, I'm 58 years old and I'm certain I once watched it in colour as a child, seeing this makes me think I did ..
I love watching the expressions of intense joy on the Frenchman's face at about 6:27 , as he realized the invasion will begin. People in occupied Europe had waited almost 5 years for that day to arrive.
Most French did not since they realized their government betrayed them declaring war on Germany. France had thousands of troops that fought for Germany during the rest of the war after the aftermath of the 1940 nonsense was resolved in 1941. Most of the French troops fought in the eastern front, but some in the west as well including defending the beaches. The French even had their own SS division, the Charlemagne. The French resistance was nothing more than a bunch of Satanic Masonic Communist pedophiles that was trying to hide out from the Germans and common French population for the injustices they did to the French humanity before the Germans came in 1940.

The movie made it seem like the German didn't know what was going on until they saw 5000 ships off the coast of Normandy. Reality was they started bombing the coast line at midnight with 2200 bombers. They had been running bombing raids not that big to get the Germans used to it. The naval bombardment in the early hours did happen with 1200 ships the sight must have been amazing as it was in the movie. One could only imagine what the sights Germans saw when the ships came into view.
d day involved such vast projects like the use of cardboard tanks hangars planes in northern england to make the germans think calais was the invasion point,,eisenhowers job as supreme C afs europe to deal with generals mostly at odds with each other,ike had to patiently work them into concensus,GIs and the ranger paratroops who took off at 3 am were fed huge breakfasts,which a lot of them up chucked in air and sea sickness in the rough seas and air currents magod, tanks sent towards the beaches were fitted in floating canvas collars so they could slow float ashore to support the rangers in the advance onto the beach & up the cliffs of point d'hoc,tanks with 50 cal mgs,76 mm tank cannon,all those 30 tanks sunk because of the tossing waves,and many crew died. The most massive naval bombardment in history,30 crew for each gun medium & large,preparing for this took a lot pf practice. a remake of all this would make a great tv 3 or 4 2 hr episode,,almost any aspect of it would be material for a 2 hr movie a current remake for hi def tv would be great.
A bit of a damper I remember when the movie came out a British journalist who was there at the time said not all the people of Normandy were happy to be selected as a site of the invasion
For this kind of movie I disagree. This is not a "Film Noir". They just used B/W to make it less obvious they blended in authentic WW2 footage. Colour would show the variety of uniforms and camouflage for instance. As someone else mentioned, a remastered HD coulour version would be welcome.

John Meillon an Australian actor, playing the part as an American officer talking to Omar Bradley, was Paul Hogan"s "business manager" in the Crocodile Dundee films.
The only problem with this movie: While all the Germans were portrayed as analytical and serious, many of the Allies were portrayed in goofy comedic moments.
If they had better coordination back then, and better ground support from aircraft, it would've kept them 20 feet underground until the invasion forces had the fortifications surrounded.
@@ffjsbHeavy aerial bombing of the beaches was also not really effective as some of the bombs hit advancing Allied troops instead of the Germans. D-DAY was successful because the Allied grunts made it successful with their blood.
