Das liegt daran, dass es unglaublich schwierig ist, eine realistische Kriegsszene zu inszenieren, da Krieg keine alltägliche Erfahrung ist. So ist es für die Zuschauer schwer, sich vorzustellen wie grausam der Krieg wirklich ist. In „Saving Private Ryan“ wurde von Regisseur und Kameramann sehr viel Wert darauf gelegt realistische Bilder zu erzeugen. Insofern gibt es Szenen in denen sogar die Kamera Blutspritzer abbekommt – sie ist mitten im Geschehen, nimmt häufig die subjektive Sicht der Soldaten ein und drückt deren Verzweiflung im bitteren Überlebenskampf aus. Eine bedrohliche Atmosphäre wird auch erzeugt, indem während des ganzen Films mit Sounddesign gearbeitet wird. Es gibt praktisch keine Szene in der wirkliche Stille herrscht. In weiter Entfernung sind stets Bombeneinschläge oder rollende Panzer zu hören.

  • Benvenuti a Marwen
    Benvenuti a Marwen LA PRODUZIONE "Ho speranza e ho la mia città". -Mark Hogancamp Il premio Oscar ROBERT ZEMECKIS - il rivoluzionario film-maker che ha diretto Forrest Gump, Flight e Cast Away - dirige STEVE CARELL nei panni di un nuovo tipo di eroe in un film diverso da qualsiasi altro mai realizzato prima. Basato su una storia miracolosa, Benvenuti a Marwen racconta la storia di un uomo che lotta per guarire e per ritrovare il proprio spirito, grazie al potere della sua immaginazione artistica. Quando un gruppo di uomini una sera picchia selvaggiamente Mark Hogancamp (Carell) riducendolo in fin di vita e cancellando tutti i suoi ricordi, nessuno si aspetta che l'uomo si riprenda. Ma Mark, mettendo insieme pezzi della sua vecchia e nuova vita, costruisce meticolosamente in miniatura una mitica città belga, Marwen, nella quale può assumere l'identità del capitano Hogie, un pilota di arei da combattimento della seconda guerra mondiale. Qui, a Marwen, Mark può essere un eroe, combattere i suoi nemici e contare sui suoi amici. Mentre costruisce un'installazione artistica strabiliante, popolata da personaggi in miniatura incredibilmente realistici - un omaggio alle donne più forti che conosce - trae dal suo mondo fantastico la forza di cui ha bisogno per trionfare nel mondo reale. Un film audace, meraviglioso e puntuale diretto da un rivoluzionario pioniere del cinema contemporaneo, Benvenuti a Marwen dimostra che quando l'unica arma di cui disponi è la tua immaginazione ... puoi ritrovare il coraggio in un luogo assolutamente improbabile. Protagonista al fianco di Carell in questo film che unisce tanti generi diversi è LESLIE MANN (Giù le mani dalle nostre figlie, Tutte contro lui -The Other Woman) nei panni di Nicol, la vicina compassionevole che fa breccia nel cuore di Mark e viene aggiunta ai personaggi femminili di Marwen.

  • If Slavery Is Not Wrong, Nothing Is Wrong.” —Abraham Lincoln, in a Letter Dated April 4, 1864
    “If slavery is not wrong, nothing is wrong.” —Abraham Lincoln, in a letter dated April 4, 1864 n the final four months of Abraham Lincoln’s life and presidency, the full measure of the man—his passion and his humanity—came to bear on his defining battle: to I plot a forward path for a shattered nation, against overwhelming odds and extreme public and personal pressure. Steven Spielberg’s “Lincoln” provides an intimate immersion into the American leader’s most perilous and revealing moments, at a time when the dark shadow of slavery lifts and a country torn by war must be made whole. A rich human drama plays out as Lincoln doubles down to end the devastating Civil War not merely by ending the war but by fighting to pass the 13th Amendment, permanently abolishing slavery. It will be an act of true national daring. He will have to call upon all the skill, courage and moral fortitude for which he’ll become legend. He will grapple with the impact of his actions on the world and on those he loves. But what lies in the balance is what always mattered most to Lincoln: to compel the American people, and those in his government of opposite persuasions, to alter course and aim higher, toward a greater good for all mankind.
