The Longest Day/Trivia


 * Engineers are seen removing explosives from the Orne Bridge. In reality they hadn't been placed in their slots when the gliders landed. Zanuck chose to ignore Howard's telling him this for the sake of drama.
 * However, a scene where German soldiers are seen running out of the cafe near that bridge wasn't done as one of the owners insisted vehemently she had never allowed Germans to sleep there.
