Saving Private Ryan maybe is the most realistic film ever made about the landing of the Allied forces in German-occupied France on June 6th 1944, but with so many explosions and fast camera movements you can't really see the place at the film. This mini-panoramio can help you with that:
Around Omaha you can discover several never ending cemeteries and take a look at the strategically located Pointe D'Hoc where fierce fights took place.
Eduardo, the shooting of the Omaha beach scenes in the film Saving Private Ryan was shot in Ireland, but still gives an excellent portrayal of Omaha beach.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone gets the chance to go to the D-Day beaches and surrounding Normandy countryside you must go, you will not be dissapointed.
Sorry, I didn't know that, thanks Dorset64.
