Oh cool a thread where I get to point out a disturbing thing in Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan.
You ever noticed how the GIs bleed and the German soldiers don't, really? I'm not saying you should feel a whole lot of sympathy for the wehrmacht jabronis but it is striking once you notice it. Aside from a few shots most of the time they just explode with powdery dust and slump over like so many storm troopers. The GIs bleed out, call for their mothers, moan scream, but not their enemies.
Aside from more nuanced takes this was the thing I noticed that started me down the path of becoming very critical of the film. It's fuckin weird, y'all.
Saving Private Ryan is the movie that made me want to start a Bechdel test for how little a WW2 movie acknowledges the overwhelming contribution of the USSR in the Nazi's defeat, if at all.
