😺Camilla!!!😺 Yes! Earn This = Enjoy your freedoms, exercise your rights!

Tom Hank's character defined "Earn this" earlier in the film when he talked about sacrificing his men to find this Pvt Ryan. He said this Ryan better go on to cure some disease, invent a longer lasting light bulb or something... Tom Hank's character sacrificed him going home and ever seeing his wife again so Ryan's mom would get to keep one son. Almost the entire squad that was sent on the mission died to save Private Ryan, all but Upham. Also, many war vets left the theater during the scene of the invasion of Normandy. This is because it was to real. It brought it all back to them. Edit: Also, I can't recommend "Band of Brothers" enough. You enjoyed this film, you will certainly enjoy that short HBO series. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0185906/

I may have missed it if you said it during the outro, but the german soldier who shot Captain Miller was the one they let go earlier. Only caught it myself after a couple watches.

A big +1 for Band of Brothers -- the best miniseries of all time imo. Plus, the Band of Brothers miniseries is a natural progression after Saving Private Ryan.

The Dingo

Tom Hanks was once asked on Inside the Actor's Studio to tell the students something about his character in this movie that the audience didn't know, that wasn't in the script, and that was something from he came up with about his character. His answer: his character would write letters home, read them, and then burn them, because he couldn't afford to be distracted. He had to focus on his mission. He had to be in the now to be sure his men survived.

That German soldier greeted Cpl. Upham like an old friend, as if he expected more mercy after just shooting Captain Miller (Tom Hanks) - who allowed that German soldier to leave blindfolded earlier in the mission.

Great reaction. Thanks. You talked more than you think. Even if you didn't, sometimes less is better. Plus, you had that good non-verbal communication going. Captain Miller just wanted to get home to his wife. Soldier uniforms of the two combatant armies in a war movie can be difficult at times for the audience to distinguish -- but not as much an issue for actual soldiers in real life to distinguish. By the way, it was against the rules to execute a prisoner of war (POW) -- a violation of the Geneva Convention (1929). When I watched this in the theater when released in 1998, I was blown away by the realism, especially the first 30 minutes of the movie depicting landing on the beach on D-Day. Had never seen anything like it before. My grandfather landed on a Normandy beach on D-Day. He never talked about it, except he told my brother that he could hear bullets whistling by.

I realized that when I started editing this yesterday... really wish I had seen it in the moment, though! that was an incredible and devastating way to bring it full circle

Bravo Camilla. You did a great job. These movies are difficult to watch but need to be seen. Steven Spielberg cast Matt Damon as Private Ryan because he wanted an unknown actor with an All-American look. He did not know Damon would win an Oscar for the hit Good Will Hunting (1997) and become an overnight star before the film was released. German casualties on D-Day have been estimated at 4,000 to 9,000 men. Allied casualties were at least 10,000, with 4,414 confirmed dead.

Off topic, but there's a classic Brian De Palma film involving a character that works in the film industry - "Blow Out" (1981). De Palma did a great job of writing a mystery with a technical side.

It was your first time watching. I've seen "SPR" a few times from beginning to end, as I suspect others have also. I always notice some new detail(s) with a story line as complex as this one.

Andrew Roach

Not that it really matters but I do consider this the greatest travesty of Oscar history that this did not win Best Picture, ask anyone and this is regarded as not just the best picture of the year but one of the greatest of all time.
