D-Day the Sixth of June/The Young Lions

Double bill of Second World War features. In 'D-Day the Sixth of June' (1956) a British and an American soldier (Robert Taylor and Richard Todd), both in love with the same woman (Dana Wynter), are travelling to Normandy in 1944.

Both fully aware of the dangers of the impending invasion, they stave off fear by reminiscing about their romances. 'The Young Lions' (1958), meanwhile, follows the fortunes of three soldiers, one German and two Americans, from the time of their enlistment to the end of the war.

Christian Dietl (Marlon Brando) is a German who starts out as a dedicated soldier but gradually becomes appalled by the Nazi movement.

The American soldiers (Montgomery Clift and Dean Martin) meet as draftees, one a young Jew and the other an entertainer, and together endure Boot Camp and the campaign to retake France.

All three characters finally meet in a confrontation outside a concentration camp.

The film was nominated for three Oscars.
