A Unigue Look at Nazi Germany,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Love in Germany [VHS] (VHS Tape)
"A Love in Germany" is a different perspective of Nazi Germany. We see this through the eyes of a person trying to reconstruct something that happened in a small town in Germany during WWII. It doesn't take too long to understand that this is about a romance between a German woman and a Polish worker. The secret affair between this slave laborer and the wife of a German officer becomes less and less a secret in the town. What may be the most interesting aspect of the movie is the varying reactions of the different townspeople to this affair. In fact, I felt that the best acting in the movie (all of it is good) was with the lesser role players.The movie switches back and forth between past and present. At first I thought that this was distracting but I came to appreciate the perspectives it added. The movie closes with the observation that, in a media full of stories and films about Nazi Germany, this movie was offered as a more personal look at their evils. I'd say it succeeded very well in its' purpose |
