Film show: D-Day classics, from 'The Longest Day' to 'Saving Private Ryan'

As commemorations marking the 80th anniversary of the Allied landings take place in Normandy, film critic Lisa Nesselson tells us about her favorite D-Day classics – from star-studded extravaganza “The Longest Day” to Steven Spielberg’s “Saving Private Ryan”. Plus, Jessica Chastain and Peter Sarsgaard star in “Memory”, a harsh tale about what happens when suppressed memories meet early-onset dementia. Finally, Lisa tells us about Roman Polanski’s latest film “Palace Hotel”, which she was surprised to enjoy after it was eviscerated by other critics.
