The Longest Day

Buy This Item The Longest Day by 20th Century Fox  Available from Amazon  $6.98  on 9-23-2008     After seeing <I>Saving Private Ryan</I>, this epic tale about the Normandy invasion will look sanitized. But in its re-creation of events leading to the epochal battle, the film is captivating and grand, and the parade of famous actors who cross the screen naturally give the already charged action even more of a boost. Three directors worked on it: Ken Annakin (<I>Battle of the Bulge</I>), Andrew Marton (<I>Crack in the World</I>), and Bernhard Wicki (this film being his only credit). <I>--Tom Keogh</I> Reader Reviews I bought this DVD and several others as Christmas gifts for my husband. He finally sat down to watch it tonight and I wish he hadn't. The DVD cuts out just before the final chapter and freezes the playback. This turned what I had hoped to be a thoughtful gift for a fan of WWII films into a very bad experience for us both. There has to be a more well manufactured version out there. My advice is, look for it and avoid this one.
