The Longest Day evaluation action

"The Longest Day" is mainly narrative. It describes the ins and outs of the historical battle of the Normandy Landing from all aspects and angles from the Allied, German and French resistance forces. Unsuccessful will become benevolent, and the allied forces have courageously rushed to the beach, and dealt with the tragic battle from the water to the land in one go. The film’s grand layout and grandeur are remarkable, and the inscriptions on figures such as decision-making generals and landing soldiers are also vivid and profound.  
"The Longest Day" uses the different perspectives of the British, Americans, French and Germans to show how the Allied forces launched an offensive against the Nazis in Europe during the Normandy Landing. As for the soldiers, a series of characters are also portrayed vividly, which is considered to be a coffin for the frontal representation of World War II with traditional methods. The film also makes the audience realize that war is not a simple conquest by force, not a game of death by chance, but a cruel struggle between wisdom and courage.

    The buddies who fell into the well and the German headquarters compound were unfortunate. The sleeping German lieutenant colonel was lucky. The log-in battle was still too idealistic to shoot. The tragic intensity of the Omaha Beach battle was not shown, but the panoramic shooting method should not be too harsh

    Intertwined in size and detail, parallel narrative. Great campaign, great movie. Hiding in an air-conditioned room and watching for three hours is also enjoyable. Of course, it would be even more enjoyable if I could return to the cinema.

The Longest Day quotes

  • [Blumentritt has just gotten off the phone with General Max Pemsel on Allied airborne landings behind Normandy]

    Major General Gunther Blumentritt: Pemsel is convinced this is the invasion.

    Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt: No no no, I do not agree with him. This is my conclusion.

    [Von Rundstedt points to the main map]

    Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt: Normandy is the site of a diversion. A diversion, Blumentritt! That is not where the main landings will take place, that will come at Pas-de-Calais, where it was always expected!

    [Von Rundstedt then realizes what he has just said]

    Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt: [to himself] Where we always expected it.

    Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt: [to Blumentritt] We can't take any chances. I want the reserve panzers moved forward.

    Major General Gunther Blumentritt: But we need permission from the Fuhrer's headquarters.

    Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt: They won't dare refuse me! Call the Fuhrer's headquarters and insist. Insist, Blumentritt! Insist the panzers be released to me.

    [as Blumentritt leaves the office to call Berlin, Von Rundstedt returns to the main map]

    Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt: A landing at Normandy would be against military logic. It would be against ALL logic.

  • RAF pilot at flight base: [talking about the invasion] Tonight. I KNOW it's tonight.

    Flight Officer David Campbell: So it's tonight. Suits me fine. Tonight. This afternoon. NOW!

    [pause]

    Flight Officer David Campbell: Or, at least, as soon as I finish this beer.
