The real footage of survivors, yes. I am sorry, I mean when Neeson breaks down about how he could have done more, in the face of the gratitude of the survivors. The scene didn't work well.

I hadn't thought about "Patton". Yes, it is an excellent movie!

Patton was an outstanding movie (and an outstanding character, too).

The Devil's Brigade was an OK movie, although it didn't do justice to the chaps who were really involved.

For fiction/fantasy I enjoy Final Countdown every time I see it.

Patton was good. I also enjoyed "Rommel" and "The Battle of the Bulge". Also, there was one which centered on England and London but cannot remember it now. And what about "From Here to Eternity" and "The Sands of Iwo Jima"? The most memorable for me, as a child, was "The Sullivans" - about five brothers who enlisted in the Navy together and all got killed. I understand that "Saving Private Ryan" was patterned after it.
