"Saving Private Ryan"

Here in the U.S. 20 station affiliates of the ABC Network refused to show this on Veterans Day because of fears of obscenity fines by the FCC.

So I dug out my DTS DVD and watched it last night. Each time I se it it grows on me. My first impression was that the balance of the film after the D-Day landing was anti-climactic but over the years I have grown to appreciate the many powerful scenes and the narrative cohesion the movie displays. My favorite scene is when General Marshall reads Abraham Lincoln's letter aloud.

The DTS sound is simply stunning and until "Master and Comander" was the best available. The DTS logo itself however is bested by the one which opens "Adaptation".
