Der Soldat James Ryan (1998)
Aus der Sicht einer Einheit amerikanischer Soldaten beginnt der Film am Tag der historischen D-Day-Invasion des 2. Weltkrieges mit der Landung am Strand. Von hier aus startet die Einheit zu einem gefährlichen Sonderauftrag: Captian John Miller muss mit seinen Männern hinter die feindlichen Linien dringen, um den Gefreiten James Ryan zu finden, dessen drei Brüder auf dem Schlachtfeld gestorben sind. Angesichts dieser schier unlösbaren Aufgabe beginnen die Männer an ihren Befehlen zu zweifeln. Warum acht Leben riskieren, um eines zu retten ? Umgeben von der brutalen Realität des Krieges sucht jeder nach seiner eigenen Antwort. Und sie suchen nach der Stärke, über die unsichere Zukunft mit Ehre, Anstand und Mut zu triumphieren.
Der Regisseur: Steven Spielberg
