Ray’s Rock - Omaha Beach On the morning of June 6, 1944, 23 year old Staff Sergeant Arnold “Ray” Lambert came ashore with the first wave of the 1st Infantry Division on the eastern side of Omaha Beach. At this small patch of concrete he saved nearly 20 lives: The division came under intense fire from several German bunkers surrounding the entrance to the Colville Draw (one of two exits off Omaha Beach). Ray, a medic, immediately went to work. He was shot in the arm. Moments later he was hit by shrapnel in the leg, but Ray kept pulling men to safety. He pulled nearly 20 wounded soldiers to cover behind this 8ft wide obstacle, treating each soldier before going out in search of others. After several hours under fire, while pulling a wounded soldier from the ocean, he was struck by a landing craft. It dropped its ramp on top of him, breaking his back. He fell face down in the water, drowning. The craft backed up and nearby soldiers pulled an unconscious Ray to safety, eventually evacuating him off the beach. Remarkably, Ray had already earned two Silver Stars and three Purple Hearts in Sicily and North Africa, prior to landing in France. But here in Normandy his war would end. He awoke in a hospital back in England a day later. In the next bed over was his brother, who had also been wounded at Omaha. When asked about his work on D-Day, Ray simply said, “I did what I was called to do.” Ray Lambert passed in 2021 at 100 years old. He exemplified the best of American grit and why remembering this day is so important.

Attitude is a choice. Gratitude is a discipline. Bitterness is expensive. Nobody accidentally has a great attitude. Nobody stumbles into gratitude. And nobody means to end up bitter, it just quietly moves in when you stop choosing something better. Guard your peace like it cost you something. Because it did.

Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971) was basically a candy commercial with a movie attached. Quaker Oats bankrolled nearly the whole thing, dropping $3M to launch a new candy line… despite having zero film experience. 5/

High Fidelity was released 26 years ago. The film introduced Jack Black to mainstream audiences. His performance was so standout that it helped launch his career as a leading comedy star almost overnight.

Homer on your birthday? That calls for a giveaway! Repost and reply for a chance to win this Will Smith @Topps Pristine card 🥳

Tom Cruise accomplished something rare opposite Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men, he never looked weak. Where most actors might shrink, he stayed composed, but always on the edge of exploding. Cruise called it “working toward lightning in a bottle.” Watching Nicholson, he said, “He was finding his character. Every movement slowed. He became more centered,” adding, “He has command over his body and his voice, and he knows the camera.”

Denzel Washington has never worked with Paul Thomas Anderson or Martin Scorsese. Am I asking for too much? I am but a meager fan of Cinema. I just want to see one of the best actors alive work with two of the best directors alive. I pray to the Cinema Gods this still happens.
