They viewed documentary footage
about the war instead of seeing com-
mercial films made in that era, and
read D-Day: June 6, 1944: The
Climactic Battle of World War II by his-
torian and film consultant Stephen
Ambrose.
"There was a very short book writ-
ten by a Jewish infantryman, and I
found it effective in getting a grip on
what was going on inside him,"
Goldberg said. "I copied about 20
pages and gave it to everyone in the
cast as well as Steven [Spielberg].
"Steven actually ended up includ-
ing one of the scenes in the film. It
was the scene
where the
Germans are
shouting
obscenities at
us.''
Another
scene that had
special impact
for Goldberg
had his charac-
ter showing off
Adam Goldberg as
his Jewish star to
Pvt. Mellish
captured Nazis.
"I was pretty
moved by that scene, and I was really
glad it was included," the actor
explained. "It seems to be something
that everybody remembers and yet
very little is said. I don't think it lasts
more than 20 seconds, but it's an
important reminder of what the war
was all about."
After the film was completed,
Goldberg realized his attitude toward
the military had changed. Although he
had started out feeling resentment
toward Capt. Dyc, that turned into
respect for his courage and expanded to
empathy for all that people in service
have had to endure.
Goldberg said that if he watched the
film objectively, because of the way it
was made, he would have empathy for
the mission to save Private Ryan.
Had he actually been in that situa-
tion, however, he would have objected
completely. It would not have mattered
what he thought morally or politically.
"Watching myself forced down [in
battle] at the end had a really strange
effect on me," he said. "I thought I'd be
more concerned with my performance,
but I just found myself sad. I actually
started to cry when I started to cry in
the film. In many ways, I found myself
shell-shocked by the experience."
