Il giorno più lungo (1962) in streaming su altadefinizione Nel 1944, l'esercito degli Stati Uniti e le forze alleate pianificano un'enorme invasione che sbarca in Normandia, in Francia. Nonostante il maltempo, il generale Dwight D. Eisenhower dà l'ok e gli Alleati sbarcano in Normandia. Il generale Norma Cota viaggia con i suoi uomini a Omaha Beach. Con molto sforzo, e perse la vita, scendono dalla spiaggia, viaggiando in profondità nel territorio francese. I militari tedeschi, a causa dell'arroganza, dell'ignoranza e di un Adolf Hitler addormentato, ritardano la loro risposta allo sbarco alleato, con risultati invalidanti.
Il film ha vinto due Oscar ed è stato nominato per altri tre.
