This film had it all. Action,romance,atmosphere & tremendous attention to detail as life was then. People living life to the full not knowing whether that day would be their last. I was only a young child in 1944 but this time period will be remembered long after I am dead & gone. My favourite character was Colonel Winter played by Richard Todd who was himself in volved in the fighting in Normandy & beyond. Colonel Timmer played by Edmund O Brian also stood out as the brash US officer. Dana Wynter's Valerie Russell's beauty typified the English rose of the period. Other performances by Robert Taylor & John Williams added to the sheer class of this film, well worth seeing despite being 50 years old.

...and that's just Robert Taylor. There is a style of acting that was in vogue in the 1950's called "dead from the neck down" and that describes Taylor to a T. The film is excruciatingly plodding, and the plot is quite morally vacant. Taylor and Wynter are both cheating on their partners and it's hard to see what they see in each other: He indulges in so much Brit-bashing and bitches about the US allies throughout the movie you would think he wouldn't want to become contaminated by them, and once Richard Todd, Wynter's former love, appears on the scene, the little Englishman just acts Taylor off the screen...even when we, finally, get to the war action, it's Todd who is all testosterone and wins the battle. I actually found the film somewhat offensive and almost a complete waste of time.

Richard Todd is one of the best actors ever. He makes you feel like you are right there with him, living the part. People just don`t seem to know that he was actually there fighting on the real D-Day! You have always been my hero Mr. Todd and you always will be. You know how special you are to me. Thank you! myrna

This movie is on my list of ones not to bother with. Among my many peeves are movies that are mislabeled, that use an enticing title-"Battle of the Bulge" is another-and then portray little if any of the events the title implies. "Lafayette Escadrille" is another. Saw this one 40 years ago on the tube, as a 14 year old I was annoyed at the lack of action and real history. One incident stands out in my memory. At the end when the landings finally occur and newsreel footage is spliced in, the soundtracks plays the songs of the various armed forces, the Marine Corps hymn is played, my mother (born in 1913) said to me (the precocious history buff) "They didn't have Marines at D-Day, did they?" The answer of course is no, the ETO was a strict Army-Navy operation. I would call this a "bait and switch" movie, you are lured in by an enticing title, the actual movie is a scam.

This WWII tear-jerker romance centered around the Normandy invasion in 1944 is one of my all time favorites of this genre. Most notably, the pairing of Robert Taylor and Dana Wynter seemed perfect casting. They are very natural together, real old pros. They exemplified the difficult relationships couples shared in wartime, grabbing a piece of life in the few moments available between battles.

just wasted 90+ minutes of my time watching this on American Movie Classics. This is ANYTHING BUT a "classic". I suppose the director/writers thought we should have empathy for a couple who are cheating on their wife and fiancé (?). And talk about a misleading title - R U kidding me ! The story could've been placed around ANY battle or war and pretty much remained the same. I enjoy WWII movies as much (probably more) than anyone and this is without a doubt one of the worst of literally dozens I've seen on AMC, TMC, or rented via Netflix. I also enjoy a good love story - but this one is just too hard to stomach.

Atrocious wartime romance filmed in widescreen and colour and very typical of its period, (it was made in the mid-fifties). Actually it has nothing very much to do with D-Day, (and it's so awful as to be something of an insult to the men who fought and died then). Rather that's when it begins as two of the men on board one of the ships, an American, (the inexplicably popular Robert Taylor), and a Brit, (the somewhat more charismatic Richard Todd), reminiscence in flashback about the woman they both love, (the beautiful but vacuous Dana Wynter). If it were better made, (it's directed by the monumentally untalented Henry Koster), it might have been tolerable but even by the standards of fifties' romantic tosh this is a real turkey, plucked, stuffed and oven-ready.

D-DAY THE SIXTH OF JUNE is a slightly nauseating gung-ho Hollywood version of the famous battle, bogged down in a bog-standard love triangle which occupies much of the running time. The British forces, in the form of Richard Todd, are shown as heroic but slightly stiff, while the Americans, in the form of Robert Taylor, are down to earth and affable. Dana Wynter is the girl caught between the two but the love triangle material couldn't be any less interesting if it tried. The battle scene at the climax is badly handled and staged in the dark for the most part, and the most fun I got out of this was John Williams' (DIAL M FOR MURDER) wry turn as the brigadier. If you want the definitive D-Day picture, look no further than THE LONGEST DAY.

This is one of those movies where history (IWW II) seems to get in the way of romance (Taylor and Wynter). He's a married American officer stationed in England, falling in love with a beautiful young Red Cross worker (Wynter), while she's already in love with a gung ho British officer (Todd). Wow! All that with bombs falling, guns firing and secret missions. Taylor and Wynter pull it off nicely, but the movie as a whole will leave you a little disappointed. Mind you, it is a good way to kill a couple of hours.
