At the beginning of the film, the audience (be) thrown into an incredible (难以置信的) sequence of about 30 minutes, depicting (描绘) the landings in Normandy. They (see) the full horror of war, and the chaos and senseless waste of life.
Saving Private Ryan is an unforgettable war film and, also, a story of courage and sacrifice. It's my favourite film and my family (love) watching it, too. The message of the film is simple—we (want) peace; we don't want war.
