D-Day Sixth Of June (1956)

The mammoth campaign of the Allied invasion is contrasted with the fears of the men involved and the reminiscences of British colonel Richard Todd and American captain Robert Taylor of their love for the same woman.
Reviews:
Yes, the title "D-Day the Sixth of June" is irritatingly misleading. This movie spends most of its time chronicling the tawdry tale of a married U.S. military officer who has an affair with a British USO-type woman who is engaged to be married to a courageous British officer. The battle scenes are sporadic, and the story creaks along slowly. The handsome Robert Taylor and the beautiful Dana Wynter are basically wasted because their roles are so unsympathetic. The characters that they portray have few qualms about cheating on their loved ones.
The movie also is not helped by a repetitious, sappy musical score that includes the sentimental song "You'll Never Know (How Much I Love You)" which accompanies the illicit lovers as they unapologetically indulge in their affair.
"D-Day the Sixth of June" is strictly for diehard fans of Taylor or Wynter. And perhaps not even those fans will be able to swallow this drivel.
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. Taylor and Todd spend the last hours before D-Day reminiscing about Wynter. . Lionel Shapiro's novel was geared more for the beach-and-bonbons crowd than war buffs, and the film follows suit. 20th Century-Fox gives a far more thorough account of D-Day itself in 1963's The Longest Day. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
