The cogs in a machine keeps spinning. It is designed that way.
Yes they just died for nothing. Just look at this world we live in and the wars THEY start and never fight themselves. 😢Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan minor minor roles … the kid Homer BRILLIANT and little Ulysses just perfectly happy and unaware of the horror of war. 😢😢😢

NOT watching this movie because it stars Tom Hanks.
THANKS TO THOSE YOUNG BRAVE MEN AND NATIONS who sacrificed a lot so we can live free, safe and secure. Otherwise, today the whole world was Nazi.
Im confused by this movie. I am having a difficult time following the story.
That movie had me on the edge of my seat the entire time.

I believe that there are only a handful left. The last D-Day memorial at Normandy only sa few left.. amazing men and women during these uncertain times.
WE SEE WITH THE DELIVERY OF HIS FIRST TELEGRAM, HOW WOMEN ALSO FIGHT A WAR – AT THE HOME FRONT.
Sad and very good movie. What a hard way to grow up ,and yes it is still happening today today.
😇😇😇
I'm glad Banks wasn't in it much. Kind of sick of him. Movie is a nice movie in a sad way.
It is sad that all the men that has fought in wars and died just so billionaires could make more money. I was in the military but I never had to go to war like all the heroes of the past. Even though our own government started the wars to collect on what ever they needed. To get oil, to take a leader out of power because he wouldn't do what the billionaires wanted him to do. Or like the Bay of Pigs Cuba's fidel Castro made a fool out of the CIA when they attacked Cuba. When the Pentagon came up with the Northwood project. The plan was to have a fake terrorist attack on our own country so the people would get behind the government and go to war no matter how many they would kill they didn't care. Thank God JFK had the guts to say no to that project. Most likely that's why he was killed. If it wasn't for the United States government most of the wars never would have happened. When I joined I thought our country and government fought for what was right. What's really funny all those hippies protesting in the streets in the 60's that everyone said was crazy. Those hippies were 100% correct. And their parents were 100% wrong. I was right on half of what I thought. Our country is great! It's not great because of our government it's great because of the strong and brave men that were born and raised in this country. Those men were afraid but yet fearless. God bless all the families that have lost a hero to war, and those heroes that made it back. 🙏
My dad liberated my mom in holland….proud of the legacy they left me…RIP
Seems like a great movie but so many ads killed the momentum and flow of scenes for me .Molly Gordon from Animal Kingdom was a nice surprise to see in the theatre scene .
Oh Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks together again! How did I not know about this?
War is a horrible thing and only benefits the arms dealers and the bankers.
Qui pena ,sem dublagem e sem legendas ,quem sabe na próxima….😊
There aren't a lot of words to really Express captured…. Just love for them all
Just thank you all who sacrificed for us all…. God bless our military past present and future… I had the honor and privilege to take care of our vets from world war 2…. My entire family has served since the beginning of our country and I can't be proud enough nor could I be grateful enough…
Would been a better movie without all those commercials. OK, movie, slow, but ok.
Thanks for sharing it! I always enjoy watching Great Movies though. 👍👌👏

Thanks Again Though.
Canada here: A war when the USA arrived two years late!
49:25 the close-up shot of that🚴♂️ bicycle Homer is riding is exactly the type of bicycle that my father gave me for my 9th birthday in 1967. He got it at a garage sale for $10. Yeah it was old and the kids laughed at it until they rode it. Then they all wanted to ride it! It was in perfect mechanical condition and would get moving fast very quickly.😁👍 I knew it was old, but never thought it was from the World War II era. 😮
I can only imagine what Palestinian children are going through
This is a beautiful movie in every possible way. I can’t believe I have never seen it before. I don’t know who sent it, but thank you!❤ Real story telling at its finest. Who wrote this? We need these stories now in this world. Remember!
