Captain Miller, Saving Private Ryan
This movie is arguably Steven Spielberg's finest work. A team of soldiers led by Captain John Miller is on a mission to retrieve Private Ryan, the last living member of the Ryan family. When Captain Miller is faced with adversity he puts his mission before his own life, and suddenly, you're bawling your eyes out.
