Episode 122 - The Longest Day (1962)

Episode 122 of the Stinking Pause podcast with Scott, Liam and Paul Movie Roulette this week required Paul to select a movie starring Edmond O'Brien. So, it's back to 1962 for a movie featuring the most impressive cast we have seen so far on the podcast…The Longest Day. In 1944, the U.S. Army and Allied forces plan a huge invasion landing in Normandy, France. Despite bad weather, General Eisenhower gives the okay and the Allies land at Normandy. General Norman Cota (Robert Mitchum) travels with his men onto Omaha Beach. With much effort, and lost life, they get off the beach, traveling deep into French territory. The German military, due to arrogance, ignorance and a sleeping Adolf Hitler, delay their response to the Allied landing, with crippling results.   This and previous episodes can be found on; Apple Podcasts Stitcher Spreaker Player FM Acast IHeartRadio Libsyn Podcast Party Follow us on Twitter @StinkingPause email: [email protected] #Podpals #PodernFamily Thanks for listening Scott, Liam and Paul
