影片描绘的是登陆诺曼底的第一天所发生的事件，所谓最长的一天是该片分别从盟军和德军双方面的角度同时描述诺曼第登陆这一历史战役的来龙去脉，以及双方在此期间的重要反应，手法平实，场面逼真，让整个事件在观众眼前重现。并且粗中有细，无论是决策的将军还是登陆的士兵都写得栩栩如生：英军战机低空飞过攻击；美国特种部队遭德军射击；一群法国修女冒着枪林弹雨抢救联军伤兵……
England in June 1944. Unseasonal storms. Allied troops are massed ready for the invasion of France, some already on the boats. The Normandy beaches will be their destination while paratroopers are dropped inland to take key towns and bridges. On the other side of the Channel the Germans still expect the invasion at Calais, and anyway the weather makes them think nothing is likely to be imminent. Eisenhower decides to go. Hitler sleeps on.
In 1944, the U.S. Army and Allied forces plan a huge invasion landing in Normandy, France. Despite bad weather, General Dwight D. Eisenhower gives the okay and the Allies land at Normandy. General Norma Cota travels with his men onto Omaha Beach. With much effort, and lost life, they get off the beach, traveling deep into French territory. The German military, due to arrogance, ignorance and a sleeping Adolf Hitler, delay their response to the Allied landing, with crippling results.
