A sad movie with a very sad ending!
Jan 04, 2008
Alan Seifert - imdb.com
In your 'goofs' section you state that Capt Parker says that he has been over here for three years and three months thus meaning he was involved in the war eight months before America entered the war. I watched the... Full review
D-DAY THE SIXTH OF JUNE (Henry Koster, 1956) **1/2
Apr 08, 2006
MARIO GAUCI - imdb.com
Another big-budget WWII adventure, filmed in color and widescreen by Fox in the '50s - and a misleadingly titled one, as it barely concerns the crucial 1944 Normandy invasion it references (not surprisingly Fox returned to this subject, and tackled... Full review

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... Full review

Despite the imposing title D-Day the Sixth of June which might lead one to believe it is an account of the Normandy invasion. It is in fact and old fashioned war romance. For Robert Taylor this was a throwback picture,... Full review
A film which springs immediately to mind after watching D-Day the Sixth of June is Abbott and Costello go to Mars. In that cerebral little opus A&C never actually get to Mars - they go to Venus instead, and even... Full review
Romantic Melodrama With An American Bias

Theo Robertson - imdb.com
It's rather strange watching D DAY THE SIXTH OF JUNE in 2005 because what strikes you is that it's a war movie made with a female audience in mind . Maybe it wasn't so strange at the time because a... Full review

Okay, we'll keep this one short: lots of big stars (Robert Taylor, Dana Wynter, Edmund O'Brien, et al), lots of extras, lots and lots of talking, but absolutely no sense of urgency or feeling of impending action is present in... Full review

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... Full review
Not the greatest

witsend64 - imdb.com
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),... Full review
One of my all time WWII favorites with perfect leads.
Jan 20, 1999
A. R. Blackburn - imdb.com
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... Full review

Final thoughts D-Day the Sixth of June isn't a terrible movie, per se, but it's a rather uninteresting one. Yet note the word "should": in fact, D-Day the Sixth of June tries very hard to create a beautiful story of love and sacrifice, but it doesn't quite work. ... Full Review

Yes, I know D Day, the Sixth of June is meant to show off the very best of Allied character, but no one is that angelic. The right insignia, starched uniforms, and nice attention to detail make D Day... ... Full Review

We don't see much of Omaha Beach in D-Day, the Sixth of June. Instead, the film concentrates on a romantic triangle involving American officer Robert Taylor, British officer Richard Todd and the lovely Dana Wynter. ... Full Article
