    I've yet to see it but I've been meaning to. It came on Cinemax the other day, but unfortunately I don't have the channel :/. I'm glad there's a DVD release, I definitely have to try amazon!

    Hi;
    Apparently there is a colorized version (this is legal isn't it?); Movie longest day color version - Rapidshare files --- Moderator Edit - Yes, this is probably illegal. Unless we know for sure, I've killed the link.
    BW does not bother me but some people have trouble with it. Whatever-this is the best WWII film ever made and I highly recommend it. Some trivia; The Longest Day (1962) - Trivia My favorite scene is where the invasion fleet appears out of the mist; YouTube - Auf mich zu direkt!!! The theme song is pretty catchy also; YouTube - The Longest Day I recall us kids marching out of the theater in 1962 to this tune after a thoroughly engrossing film experience. Why does this Zanuck film work so well? Well they kept it real. It really brought home to us what our fathers were talking about.

    COLORIZED?

    That's a reason for a firing squad.

    Actually yes, it is illegal. Rapidshare is a bittorrent site, and movies (plus many other things) are illegally posted there in violation on many international laws.
