I listened to the audiobook, and then read the book and Werner is even more interesting. There is specially one a passage that really made me thrill of how much he is.
Этот фильм вышел 16 лет назад а я только увидела фильм, он уехал на русский фронт чтобы погибнуть а она в сопротивление, наверняка погибнет а влюбленность их души осталась, красивые актеры Джюли Делярм и Тома Жуанне, Молодцы👍👍👍👍👍
This wonderful film reminds me a little bit of a beautiful aria from the Opera Fedora in which Count Ipanov tells her that her eyes sayes that she loves him even if her lips says that she does not.
The scene after that boy accosted her, when she was so upset & angry when her dad asked her about "what happened"---THAT is when she expressed how she had fallen in love with this gentle German man, and how upset she was that she met him under these circumstances. Some women did marry their German boyfriends, and I really believe he was reaching out to her as to "what should I do?" with his disappointment with the war. I definitely would have written a different ending, because there is NO WAY a young woman and this man would not have given into their feelings. NO WAY. I wasn't born yesterday.
Bookworm Doe That was her grandpa who asked, “What happened?”. I think she fell in love with him long before that, after she saw him helping picking up Pierre (a little boy who fell and scraped his knee).
That is so perceptive, i have been following lots of comments of various videos lol, i am learning things that i did not notice or figure out from a number of comments. I think her angry outburst to her Grandpa's inquiry was due to her emotional upset, the humiliation of being accosted by her own cousin, a Frenchman, while hosting an Enemy Combatant, a German who turns out be a gentleman, an aristocrat, a composer, a classical pianist who show great sensitivity, respect, tenderness, appreciation and patience towards her and her grandpa's silent hostility. Besides, a young woman living with a grandpa suddenly has a cultured, manly, goodlooking aristocratic soldier living in one's house, who can speak French with great poetic introspection (the Silence of the Sea fireside talk), how is it possible that she would not fall for him. The sheer masculinity was intoxicating, when he pushed open the door, the accosting cousin ceased and ran away, Werner did not move a finger or utter a word, his eyes just tore into Pascal the cousin. I can't imagine how upset he was. Yet he closed the door to give Jeanne some privacy or closure and went upstairs, notice, he paused midway and turned around and looked at her with concern and tender lovingness. This is after she had refused again to speak to him at the fish shack. It was puzzling that he drove back to the house while it was still day time. This movie is so beautifully put together, the building of the arc was done masterfully, culminating to the final bombing scene, leading to the inevitability. Werner had no other choice but to leave, he could ask to be assigned to another regiment in France, but I think the survivor's guilt (seeing his two friends and his orderly die) just did him in, and the prospect of over seeing 99 French hostages being shot for his two officer friends...impossible to bear.
@@asseln3066Eu já acho que ela se apaixonou ou melhor já estava apaixonada por ele desde aquela cena em que ele ao chegar na casa e bate a porta ela fura o dedo com a agulha de costura, daí ele passa olha e o que dá a entender que é para ela, sobe as escadas e vai para o quarto mas ela fica olhando como se estivesse se perguntando o porque dele ter passado direto. Depois ele desce todo arrumado com a desculpa de que em seu quarto estava muito frio, quando ele se dirige para a lareira para aquecer-se ela para de ciaturar e fica o admirando- o pela sua costas. Vemos essa atitude dela pelo espelho que para mim ali já transparecia um olhar de ternura. Aí no outro dia pela manhã ela ver a atitude dele para com a criança. Tanto que depois ela quer saber do menino o que ele havia dito para ele.
She was torned between her feelings for France and for Werner. What's more french women who had romance with german soldiers were considerate like traitor to their country, I think it's the reason why she didn't show him that she was in love... But when she says him goodbye, he understood what she was feeling. (I hope you'll understand my comment, my english is so bad ^^")
I totally agree with your points . I can never forget the scene that she bid farewell to him , with tears roling down on her face and the way he looked into her eyes as a response . In my view , saying "farewell" to Werner is saying "I love you" , which is the answer to his delicate and warm love . What a magnificent movie .
Elise, thank you for expressing your point of view. It does help to understand the mental torment that Jeanne had with her feelings. I know it cannot be easy for her to see this "wonderful German man expressing himself so eloquently through his words and music - it would be hard to resist such a man yet she was forced to do what was right for both of them. I believe the word is "sacrifice" for what she holds dear to her country and fellowship in her country.
Elise Al your English very good. I saw this movie twice. I loved so much. They both acted so brilliantly. He talked through out this movie but she didn't. Best romantic war movie i ever saw. I think in my opinion he started liking him when he came without his uniform. He looks so handsome. And declare his feeling about France & love of music.After that she felling in love with him. Do you have any other romantic movies he acted on please let me know. I hope he get this massage, he is very brilliant actor.

Just fyi, after Christmas 1941, German soldiers were already trapped inside Stalingrad, no thanks to Hitler's ego. So, Werner would not have been on that Russian front. So, it's feasible he could have been in the German front line, but he could have survived and not have been captured, perhaps transferring back to Germany, and he no doubt would have written her, and I know he would have figured out a country they could have gone to.
Офицера жалко, какой интеллигент, аристократ, музыкант и просто красивый мужчина! Эх Жанна была бы ты добрее и ласковее может и не уехал бы он на восточный фронт
@@user-yx3mu1dv5t I don't think he left because of her attitude, I think he left because of survivor's guilt, disillusion with the Nazi policy towards France (so it says in the original book, which I find somewhat contrived). Я не думаю, что он ушел из-за ее отношения, я думаю, что он ушел из-за вины выжившего, разочарования в политике нацистов по отношению к Франции (так говорится в оригинальной книге, которую я считаю несколько надуманной). Also the consequence of the assassination of his fellow officers and his orderly. Remember the Grandpa read in the Newspaper that 99 French hostages were shot for two German Officers assassinated? I think if Werner stayed, he would have to oversee the execution of a large number of French hostages as a revenge for his buddies.
ton commentaire date d'il y a un an, je pense que depuis tout ce temps tu as du le trouver x) si jamais toutes les parties sont sur youtube, je l'ai aussi je peux te l'envoyer ;)
It is a fictional story based on a short piece of literature written in 1941 by a resistance member. The 2004 movie is greatly embellished from the original story. The original story was written to encourage ordinary French citizens to resist the occupation of France by not engaging with the German soldiers and officials.
Жаль что уехал на русский фронт, жаль что Жанна не отвечала взаимностью, не было у нее того взгляда который был у него, он ее любил, она не отвечала вот и уехал чтоб погибнуть, мне жаль немецкого офицера!!!
