On this day in history, June 6th 1944, Allied forces stormed the beaches of Normandy and changed the course of World War II. You know what they say about all is fair in love and war? Well it was true on D-Day when Allied Forces failed to hold back Hitler's onslaught. But D-Day wasn't the end for France or for Germany; it was just a turning point that led to victory. On June 6, 1944, the Allied Forces launched one of the most crucial and daring operations in history: the liberation of Western Europe from Nazi Germany. D-Day is a historical drama telling the story of this battle, which took place during World War II. It was directed by Jonathan Glatzer and released in 2014. The film stars Jim Caviezel as John Steele, a commander in charge of one of the landing boats that arrived on Normandy beaches during D-Day. During its filming, D-Day was referred to as "The Longest Day." Director Jonathan Glatzer's film focuses on the Battle for Normandy that took place over five weeks in June 1944. The story of the D-Day invasion is told through the eyes of John Steele, commander of one of the small boats that was among the first to land on the beaches of Normandy. It is bound to stir some controversy given that many historians believe that there were no high casualties for the Allies, but only minimal casualties for the Germans. Some say it even supports Hitler's claims that "it was not possible to lose" and describe it as "history revisionism." Most reviews call it an engaging film, with fans calling it sometimes more than just a good war story. The D-Day Invasion had a shaky start with an estimated 10,000 French civilians being killed on Omaha Beach alone. After landing on the beaches of Normandy, the Allies faced the German Army and the Nazis got a good share of heavy casualties. The film stars Jim Caviezel, who was nominated for an Academy Award for his role in "The Passion of the Christ." Caviezel portrays John Steele, a Navy Commander tasked with leading one of the amphibious assault craft. The film opens with a young woman named Pearl (played by Ella Anderson), telling her family she is going to call and kiss her boyfriend goodbye and then he is going to be sent off to fight in World War II. She tells her family, "They're so brave and so strong. It's amazing. I just want you to know that I'm proud of him." At sea, Steele is encountered with undertrained and inexperienced recruits who are about to meet their first true test in battle. Not the best way to start, but things will get better for them as they learn how to work together. Along the way, plenty of people are lost, including one of the first casualties; another soldier (played by Ben Caplan) who prays for his brothers still on the beach. They're not safe yet though because it's right after D-Day that "The Longest Day" turns into "Saving Private Ryan. cfa1e77820
