| User ReviewIsabelle STrès bon film de l' époque des Nazis. Aucun temps mort et les acteurs sont excellents. |
| User ReviewMatthew OGreat French film about a true story, on how a history teacher managed to save her husband and help La Resistance to triumph. Shortly after seeing it, I realized she had died one year ago. Life rewards the fearless :) |
| User ReviewJohn WBouquet is an actress we dont see nearly enough of and Auteil we see all the time but can never get enough of. Whilst its hardly ground breaking stuff, this is a fine film. |
| User ReviewKate CThe first time I watched this movie I didn't get far in before I became bored. This time I caught it about a half an hour in and quickly became engulfed in the story. While at times it sounds like something an overzealous romance writer would come up with... it was based on the author's real life. Also, I noticed points at which it deviated from what I had read of her book... I did like it overall. Unfortunately, however, the book has one of the strongest openings I have ever read and I was quite disappointed that didn't translate to the film. |
| User ReviewRømåîn VA great movie about the French Resistance during the WWII and the great role played by Lucie Aubrac (died in 2007). Carole Bouquet is Lucie Aubrac. To be watched!!! |
