There are many great movies that I could choose to work with this semester; however, I am choosing to work with Saving Privater Ryan. Saving Private Ryan is an ingenious film by Steven Spielberg. Spielberg, who has worked on such films as Jurassic Park, Memoirs of a Geisha, and Back to the Future, has added an element of first-person perspective to classic war genre films. Saving Private Ryan stayed true to the typical ideology of war-genre movies, but with the interesting cameras angles and perspectives, Spielberg was able to capture the soldiers views and thoughts as well as place the audience into the 'shoes', per se, of the soldiers. It is a great movie, and I suggest that everyone watch it if they already haven't.

I think "Saving Private Ryan" stands out from all other war movies, and really gives the audience perspective on what it felt like fighting in the war. Also, probably one of the most graphic war films I have ever seen.
