D-Day the Sixth of June (1956)

As the ominous date of June 6th, 1944, also known as D-Day, fast approaches, the battleship carrying the joint American, British, and Canadian Special Force Six barrels towards the treacherous Normandy coast. Among the ship's contingent are British Lieutenant Colonel John Wynter and American Captain Brad Parker. These two men, bound for the same deadly mission, share more than the impending invasion; they are entwined in an intricate web of personal connection and unspoken rivalry, revolving around the captivating Valerie Russell, a junior officer of the British Women's Royal Army Corps. In the shadow of the looming battle, memories surge like waves in a storm. Through a series of vivid flashbacks, we delve into their complex relationships with Valerie. Wynter, a long-time lover of Valerie, has been entwined with her since his service under her father's regiment. His heart yearns for her during his frequent absences, each combat mission pulling him further from her embrace. Parker, on the other hand, is a former paratrooper nursing a broken leg and a broken heart. His path with Valerie crossed two years prior, when he was tasked with bridging the divide between British and American forces. Amidst the solitude of war and the yearning for companionship, their friendship bloomed into a forbidden love, a love shadowed by Parker's wife waiting for him back home and Valerie's relationship with Wynter. As the ship sails closer to the lethal shores of Normandy, the tension escalates. The outcome of this love triangle hangs in the balance, contingent not only on the unforgiving battle ahead but also heavily influenced by the harsh realities of life post-war. As the clock ticks down to the harrowing climax of the invasion, confined to the film's final fifteen minutes, one question lingers: Which of these brave men will survive to claim Valerie's love?
