    'The Longest Day' - three segments - the preparation and waiting for the right weather, the travelling to the beaches and the actual landings. This review is quite comprehensive:

    Ah, but in this context, Operation Fortitude South should perhaps be counted as an additional segment! Wikipedia:

    "The operation was intended to divert Axis attention away from Normandy and, after the invasion on June 6, 1944, to delay reinforcement by convincing the Germans that the landings were purely a diversionary attack. The operation was one of the most successful military deceptions employed during the war and, arguably, the most important."
