Obviously, the answer is the new film, Bridge of Spies – but these three elements come together to be so much more than your simple, run of the mill drama.

Therefore, Spielberg makes certain characters much more relatable. More specifically, Spielberg…
The intolerable amount of deaths displayed in the film was only one of many strategies which Spielberg utilized in the movie to increase its authenticities. The fact that Saving Private Ryan accurately imitated the European Theatre of the War on the TV screen made it an excellent representation of United States’s contribution to the war efforts in the Second World War. The script writer Robert Rodat, wrote the plot based on a true story of Sergeant Frederick Niland. Like Private Ryan, the army…

Most people would agree that Steven Spielberg is a talented film director who has made some of the greatest,influential, and most iconic films of the past few decades.
