the D-Day scene as I had heard it was the most accurate portrayal of that day ever by Hollywood.

Two teen couples were in the back row laughing and joking as the movie began. About the time the beach assault got underway, they got silent. When the soldier picked up his blown off arm with the wrist watch on it, they got up and left the theater.




Wonder if they went to a safe space?
