| User Reviewdoris cThe most wonderful movie about my fave city: Paris. Real History! |
| User ReviewJason MAn absolutely brilliant war movie about the liberation of Paris. It's one of those movies from an era where everyone wanted 'in' to a commemorative WWII picture. A definite must-see! |
| User ReviewPrivate UOne of those movies in which I found myself thinking, "Well, it was made in 1966, so they were doing their best." Entertaining, but kind of hokey for modern cynics. A big deal's made of the script but I found it a little stiff. |
| User ReviewGuillaume SExcellent film retracant les derniers jours de Paris sous l'occupation et traitant des differentes rivalites entre resistants. Contient bon nombre des monstres sacres du cinema francais. |
| User ReviewDavid KA tour de force (no pun intended), with zillions of famous actors doing cameos in three languages. Excellent epic movie. Not bad history lesson, either. |
| User ReviewMed CMerci France 3 d'avoir repassé ce chef d'oeuvre du cinéma. Tout est dit. |
| User ReviewStuart MJ'adore ce film ! Je l'à (C)coute presque chaque annà (C)e dà (C)but juin ! |
| User Reviewjames cWonderful film about the French resistance in Paris in 1944. Brilliant factual drama |
| User ReviewMatthieu CExcellent film! Must-see for history buffs! Watching a film 41 years after it was made and in Black and white, really good. |
| User ReviewRick LDescribing this film, about the French Resistance's attempts to liberate Paris, as an epic - probably doesn't do it justice...one gets the feeling that the real Liberation of Paris was a lot quicker to conclude than this film. But there are great performances and its both exciting and moving. A classic. |
