Band Of Brothers


Band Of Brothers
Band of Brothers is a 10-part television World War II miniseries based on the book of the same title written by historian and biographer Stephen Ambrose. It was co-produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks after their successful collaboration on the Academy Award-winning World War II film Saving Private Ryan. The series dramatically re-creates the path of the Easy Company, an elite paratrooper unit, from their basic training at Camp Toccoa in Georgia in 1942, to D-Day, to their critical involvement in the Battle of the Bulge, through their triumph at the close of the war. The unit was one of the best trained and most productive in American military history, but it also suffered immense casualties. The series is an ensemble piece, involving dozens of characters and a cast with relative unknowns. The central character is Dick Winters (Damian Lewis), a lieutenant who was promoted over the course of the war to battalion commander. There are a few other members of the unit that make a strong impression: Sobel (David Schwimmer of Friends), their C.O. at Toccoa, is depicted as a petty tyrant whose men bond together in their hatred of him; Nixon (Ron Livingston of Office Space) is Winters' fellow officer and best friend, and an alcoholic; Carwood Lipton (Donnie Wahlberg) is a decent, hard-working man, and a tremendous soldier who earns a battlefield commission for his exemplary leadership; and Bill Guarnere (Frank John Hughes), who fears nothing and is known for his wise-guy attitude and hot temper.
