The title character is not actually the main character, that would be Captain John Miller (Tom Hanks). Spielberg's tribute to the Veteran's of WWII is based on facts, but not a factual story. The cast is a talented mix of actors Matt Damon, Edward Burns, Giovanni Ribisi, Vin Diesel, Tom Sizemore, Barry Pepper to name names and by far not all off them. The film begins on D-Day and beyond but deals solely with the war and internal conflicts of American soldiers. It's a film based on reflection of the memories of Private James Francis Ryan (Matt Damon) in youth. It is an excellent film, but too much war for me. I respect the Veterans and grateful to all who have served, but it is hard for me to watch and find enjoyment. It is a good reminder of the REAL heroes of the world. I did not buy it for myself, but for my man-thing. :D The film and special features are subtitled in English for the deaf, thankfully
