| User Reviewane t te cMignon! Les enfants sont tellement bons acteurs, c'est incroyable. L'histoire est superbe. |
| User ReviewBaju HUn film émouvant où Jugnot nous montre ses talents de réalisateurs... Cette histoire nous montre comment un petit homme tout simple peut limite devenir un héros par hasard. Jean Paul Rouve y est odieux à souhait... |
| User ReviewThe CI will have to give this film a 4 star rating. This is a well-made World War II movie by director Gerard Jugnot. The acting was fantastic, the script was well-done, and the history was accurate. Great movie! |
| User ReviewJohn BAnother in a long line of depictions of those who saved the Jews during the Nazi occupation. This one has a good heart to it. |
