Shakespeare in Love is an exquisite movie.

But Saving Private Ryan is one of those movies that is an enduring, timeless, powerful classic.

SRP is, IMO, a true milestone. -- nm - loosilu on her netbook Nov 25, 20:43 6
- the first 30 minutes, sure. the rest of it is every war movie cliche spielberg could throw up on the screen -- nm - wererabbit Nov 25, 20:55 2
  - Darabont wrote that section of the film -- nm - peglegpete Nov 25, 21:04
  - It is flawed, for sure. -- nm - loosilu on her netbook Nov 25, 20:58
- SRP? Saving Ryan's Privates? -- nm - Redmond, Go Ducks. Go Cornhuskers! Nov 25, 20:47 2
  - No ... - ReluctantCynic Nov 25, 20:53
  - it sure ain't Redmond's. -- nm - loosilu on her netbook Nov 25, 20:48
