Steven Spielberg intentionally made Matt Damon's life hell during the filming of Saving Private Ryan - but it was all worth it at the end of the day.
Steven Spielberg's plans for Saving Private Ryan made Matt Damon's life hell but eventually paid off well when they reflected in the movie. Set in the backdrop of World War II, Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan gives one of the most graphic visuals of war. It has been more than two and a half decades since its release, but the war epic continues to influence modern-day action movies with its emphasis on realism over romanticism and immersive storytelling over shallow spectacle.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT While its technical aspects and overall production value made it visually chilling and spectacular, Saving Private Ryan's timeless take on heroism and the terrors of war was further elevated by the strength of its cast. As reports suggest, Steven Spielberg meticulously cast every character in the movie.
Matt Damon was not accountable for his absence, though, since Steven Spielberg had excluded the Good Will Hunting star from Saving Private Ryan's training. Unaware of Steven Spielberg's plans, Saving Private Ryan's cast members grew bitter towards Matt Damon because while they were being name-called and forced through hours of painful training each day, Damon was relaxing back at home.
How Steven Spielberg's Plan Made Saving Private Ryan Better Fortunately for Matt Damon, Steven Spielberg had intentionally kept him out of the training boot camp to ensure that the cast members translated real resentment towards his titular character Ryan. Considering how Saving Private Ryan's characters seem to channel authentic feelings of animosity and frustration towards Ryan, Steven Spielberg's plan made Saving Private Ryan better and more believable.
