Navy Heroes of Normandy to be Shown in France During 65th Anniversary Ceremonies for D-Day

Tim Gray Media is proud to announce that its recent film, Navy Heroes of Normandy, has been selected to be screened in Normandy, France on June 4,5 and 6. The documentary (w/ French subtitles) will be shown in conjunction with ceremonies surrounding the 65th anniversary of the D-Day landings on the coast of France on June 6, 1944.

Navy Heroes of Normandy will be show over the course of three days at both the Utah Beach Museum in Sainte-Marie-du Mont, and during 65th anniversary celebrations in the town of Sainte-Mere-Eglise. Sainte-Mere-Eglise was the first town to be liberated on D-Day. It will mark the European debut of the film, which chronicles the building and dedication of the first monument to the United States Navy in Normandy.

TGM filmed on-location in Normandy in September, 2008, as the US Navy memorial was officially dedicated at Utah Beach.

“To be invited back to show the film during the 65th anniversary is a big honor,” said TGM’s President, Tim Gray. “This is our second film produced in Normandy in the past three years, so we have come to know the importance of the day for both France and the United States,” Gray said.

In 2006, TGM filmed the Emmy Award winning documentary, D-Day: The Price of Freedom.

“Allied D-Day veterans, U.S. President Barack Obama, French President Nicolas Sarkozy and British Prime Minister Gordon Brown are scheduled to be in Normandy for the 65th, so it will be an honor to be there during this exciting time and show the film,” Gray said.
