| Abstract | Evaluates some of the polysemic and polyvalent dimensions of the film 'Saving Private Ryan.' Argument that the film should be perceived as an intertextual representation where audiences and critics 'co-produce' their readings of the rhetorical meaning of D-Day, the Allied Invasion of Normandy in 1944 and World War II; Nostalgia and remembrance in critical memory studies; Film synopsis; Review of criticisms of the movie. |
