Episode 7 is so beautiful because Lipton was waiting for Dike to be the leader He was meant to be. But Lipton himself was a leader all along. The selfeness and brotherhood
Even the writers agreed it's the greatest scene in the show 🙌 "At first the Germans didn't shoot at him. I think they couldn't quite believe what they were seeing. But that wasn't the really astounding thing. The astounding thing was that after he hooked up with I company, he came back." Honorable mentions: "You wanna know if they're true or not, the stories about me. Did you ever notice with stories like that, everyone says they heard it from someone who was there, but then when you ask that person, they say they heard it from someone who was there. It's nothing new, really. I bet if you went back 2,000 years, you'd hear a couple of centurions standing around and yakking about how Tercius lopped off the heads of some Carthaginian prisoners. Well, maybe they kept talking about it because they never heard Tercius deny it. Well, maybe that's because Tercius knew there was some value to the men thinking he was the meanest, toughest sonofabitch in the whole Roman legion." "You know why you hide in that ditch, Blithe? I was scared. We're all scared. You hid in that ditch because you think there's still hope. But, Blithe, the only hope you have is to accept the fact that you're already dead, and the sooner you accept that, the sooner you'll be able to function as a soldier's supposed to function. Without mercy, without compassion, without remorse. All war depends upon it."
Without a doubt this was and still is the best depiction of what the BEST GENERATION went through. As a young boy, I remember a really tall fella, that when the Fourth of July got close and kids had fire crackers, I saw this man hit the deck and start shaking. My uncle told me it was from the war and he had been at the Battle of the Bulge! I have never forgotten him! Back in the day they called it shell shock. Now it’s called PTSD. These actors and writers did a fantastic job of portraying the men of Easy Company. I’m not sure about the number of times that I have watched the series but most times I know what’s coming, until I see or hear something I had not thought of before. Thank you all for coming into the lives of this band of heroes and bringing it to all of us. Curahee!
I love these panels so much. I am SO glad they allowed the episode focus on doc, there is not enough representation for the medics in war and they are so integral.
Now, of course, the book about Ron Speirs 'Fierce Valor' has come out, and even with all those stories confirmed or at least clarified, Speirs is STILL an enigma
I've often wondered if he was concerned that he would be charged with a war crime if he spoke about his time in the service or if he enjoyed the mystique regarding it. Maybe both.
@@erselley9017 it was mentioned that he was slightly worried about it when turning up to one of the reunions - the only one he went to. He certainly welcomed the fact that he was slightly feared by those under his command and didn't mind using that to his advantage, but I think he was too much of a straight shooter to relish the mystique for its own sake.
@@manonymous4737 I saw a UA-cam video where they visited a museum that had alot of information about him. I want to say it's ran by the guys who wrote the book. They had a television interview he gave pre band of brothers about Rudolph Hess and it was amazing to see the man himself speak. My personal favorite piece they had was a photo from his wedding that Buck Compton was in.
Matt Settle was absolutely excellent in the role, but I felt they all were, they, as actors, were perfectly cast for the character thry played. Everyone who worked on this is to be congratulated for excellent work. Thank you all
Wow! After over 20 years… Excellent panel!!! I Immediately recognized Lt. Spears (Mathew Settle) Liebgott (Ross McCall). Thank you for this great upload.
This is outstanding. I really enjoyed Eugene in BOB, great character who I wish we would have seen a little more of other than the major scenes in Bastone, although I apparently I need to rewatch the series. He's supposedly had more interaction with the rest of the Easy Company Cast / on Set and in Series. Very cool! The woman actress who played the Nurse, I always thought she did an exceptional job as well. What a nice event this is. I enjoyed watching
6 is my favorite. The best moment in mabe the whole series was when Doc had just recovered the head scarf of the the nurse who had died in a bombing and hesitates and then rips it to patch a wounded soldier. Babe.
Loved this panel; gave so much more clairity to what was going on. It's the first time I've heard Settles speak and about his fabulous run when Dike freeked out. He has always fascinated me. Thanks guys for sharing all you have. Means a lot.
One helluva good point you have. 20 years post-production we have all of this beautiful looking CGI and special effects...it's all bullshit. That scene with Spiers not only is cooler looking, but it honors a real heroic event. Something tangible and forever patriotic...using a REAL HERO.
When watching his scenes I forget he’s acting and I honestly look at him as a badass soldier. Reminds me of Sgt. Barnes from Platoon. I wish he would have had way more scenes but he was a amazing. The whole cast is honesty so amazing. Love it so much.
all of Easy company might pass away but I feel like these actors who portrayed them will keep their stories alive. Even their reunion seemed like a real sodlier company reunion.
I wonder if these writers and actors know how much this series mean not to the defendants of the 506 but to all who had a father or grandfather who fought in ww2❤
I remember exactly where I was sitting during this too. I was on the left side in the audience, third row from the front. I wasn't that far from one of the screens. Great event
The Church Scene is actually one of my favorites pieces of cinematography out of the series, where they have the company there, and having the people who were wounded or died disappear really brought it home.
Am presently watching this video and am on the part where the director of music Michael Kamen is mentioned and that no music was used for episode 6 … I think it was the base music for episode 8 (now I can figure out which episode) that felt hauntingly familiar to me, but didn’t know why. So I Googled Michael Kamen and found the answer with his body of work … the score from “Open Range” is very similar.
The series is legendary and need a revisit at least once a year. I enjoy the actor anecdotes as much as the veterans. Only thing I don’t like about the series is they got the battle of Nuenen wrong. Fighting never reached the town and the Brit armour played a much bigger role and were much more capable than portrayed. The non unnecessary damage policy is a fiction if you look at how the Brits operated tactically.
Watching these I realized one thing they didn't show. The Medic doesn't appear until later in the series. They don't show the Medic going through jump school, or the first jump into Normandy. It's obvious the Medic would have to go to Combat Medic training before Airborne training. I would have liked to have seen the medic's part leading up to Normandy. Was the Medic a volunteer like the soldiers, or was he assigned that position?
He's actually there from the start of the show, but he doesn't have much screentime until episode 3. I agree, it would have been great had they delved more into the training that medics underwent.
The medic was in every episode. Just didnt have any lines. He was shown in training excercises in ep 1 and was in Winters' plane in ep 2. The medic position was assigned later during training. Shane(Roe's actor) talks about how another veteran told him that soldiers were asked if they thought they could kill someone on a questionnaire. The medic Shane talked to said he answered 'no' to that question and was promptly made a medic. Its not really known why Roe was chosen.
Actually he was. you can see him running up Currahee and you can see him being picked up by Winters when he holds out his hands to everyone before getting on the plane. You can also see him in the plane with the others on the first jump into Normandy.
I love every single episode. And episode 6 is so special for Doc Roe. I'm glad they talked about that moment
Episode 7 is so beautiful because Lipton was waiting for Dike to be the leader He was meant to be. But Lipton himself was a leader all along. The selfeness and brotherhood
Even the writers agreed it's the greatest scene in the show 🙌

Great job the Roe actor did with the accent. Really all the British actors did but that Cajun one is hard to nail.

Curahee!
I wish I had known his name.
So happy to see Matthew Settle!❤
I love these panels so much.
I am SO glad they allowed the episode focus on doc, there is not enough representation for the medics in war and they are so integral.
I love how with every panel, they catch themselves once for swearing and then proceed to swear unapologetically throughout the rest of the talk.

Rick Gomez describing Donnie's marching 😂😂😂😂 I can totally picture DW doing this
Wow! After over 20 years…
Excellent panel!!!
I Immediately recognized Lt. Spears (Mathew Settle) Liebgott (Ross McCall).
Thank you for this great upload.

What a nice event this is. I enjoyed watching
So glad we attended this event, truly a special experience having interviewed Carwood Lipton when the series first aired. Thank you team!
Part 6 and 7 were my favorite episodes. Brilliant.
6 is my favorite. The best moment in mabe the whole series was when Doc had just recovered the head scarf of the the nurse who had died in a bombing and hesitates and then rips it to patch a wounded soldier. Babe.

Matthew Settle made an amazing character... Batman and Iron Man can go back to under the robe of their moms.

Haha….Well said!!👏🏻

Episode 6 is beautiful. My favorite.
all of Easy company might pass away but I feel like these actors who portrayed them will keep their stories alive. Even their reunion seemed like a real sodlier company reunion.
They all brought the lives of these men to life so wonderfully.
I wonder if these writers and actors know how much this series mean not to the defendants of the 506 but to all who had a father or grandfather who fought in ww2❤
I remember exactly where I was sitting during this too. I was on the left side in the audience, third row from the front. I wasn't that far from one of the screens. Great event
I can't stop watching!! The serie and the panels. I absolutely love them together ❤
Great writers.
Obviously beautiful souls.
They wrote the exceptional words that were amplified through special actors.
Shane Taylor, at 19:00, "I think I lost my fox hole" - what an awesome way to say "I think I got off track"
This is such a great panel
I had a crush on the medic so bad when I was younger and I guess I still do 🤣
He’s pretty fine! Speirs is my man!😍
The church is scene is so peaceful... I too felt peaceful after those sounds of gunshots and bombs
The Church Scene is actually one of my favorites pieces of cinematography out of the series, where they have the company there, and having the people who were wounded or died disappear really brought it home.
This is so beautiful! 👏👏👏
Amazing
Best thing ever on screen
Were marching into town taking this joint!!!!!🎉
I love Michael Cudlitz!
Fact positive...Less of artistic licence more truth Bible.. 😊😊 Episode 6 the best ❤❤
Amazing movie, Great actors based on true American heroes

The guy that played Doc Roe looks really different
59:09 - Totally agree.

He is there in many episodes right from Episode 1
