The Third Reich in Colour

The Liberation of France (1x3)

: 31, 1997

In 1944, in southern England, Allied troops were getting ready to land in Normandy. US soldier Jack Lieb was there with his amateur camera. On D-Day, John Ford shot in color with his camera crews. His Hollywood colleague George Stevens also landed in northern France with his team on 6 June 1944. Those men documented the advance and finally the liberation of Paris up close.
