Tom Hanks on Remembering D-Day 80 Years Later
Season 2024
Episode 6244
About the Episode
When we think of D-Day, perhaps the most vivid imagery comes not from the newsreels of the time, but from cinema -- for example, the visceral, haunting battlefield scenes from "Saving Private Ryan." That movie’s star, Tom Hanks, is a history buff, and traveled to Normandy for the anniversary commemoration. Christiane spoke with him there about the meaning of this anniversary.
