Saving Private Ryan: Earning It

Thanksgiving is nearly here and the ReconCinemation gang is celebrating with another entry in T-Hanksgiving, SAVING PRIVATE RYAN! While most are still doing their last minute turkey prep, Jon, David & Brent are taking a look into 90s Tom Hanks and one of his celebrated films: from his disastrous 1990 to the comeback a few years later, skyorcketing to back-to-back Best Actor Oscars, his directorial debut, his reunion with Steven Spielberg & more! Plus, an examination of the historical accuracy of the film, the cinematography of Janusz Kamiński, the character work of Spielberg, where it ranks amongst Spielberg's & Hanks' other films, the incredible cast, the huge influence the film cast over the way action scenes were filmed going forward, early memories, how the film holds up today & so much more!

The mission was a podcast... it's SAVING PRIVATE RYAN!
