This is one of the best romance stories during the Occupation ! It is so simply told by the facial expressions of the couple without having to say a single word.

​@@oliveerg9405i read this book as a teen long ago. My 4 gd-parents fleed from nazie germany in france. Maternal gd parents (switz and tirolian living in germany) fleed in 35... they were progressist and radical minded and... opponants to Adolf H since his aborted coup in München in 24...paternal side they were irish-US living in germany too since 1918 and fleed in north east france in 1939. My gran ma had to accept at her "littl' castle" the chief of german police and his wife. True ignorant and vulgar people ex butcher from Stuttgart. My gr'an ma used to play piano... Mendelsohn and other jewish composers (!) those dumbies applauded at ! And used to read german poetry... But jewish one (!). Until the chief of gestapo (In Metz) invited during an evening party.. Recognised the composers and poets. My gran ma escaped from being sent in eastern camp by a hugh graduate officer of Luftwaffe and aristocrat she knew before the war. Then they all moved to french speaking part of east france in Nancy and shut their mouth until 44. Lucky for my pa' who was born in Köln in 27 and spoke fluently german : his friends at gymnasium in Metz were recruted as "malgré-nous" (= against our will) and sent on russian front. Just a few came back in 45. Life is swinging on a rope... Trying to keep balance in war times. Every minute...

Makes you wonder if all the wars were really worth it? Who wanted the wars? Why do splended beings like Werner and Jeanne willingly march to face peril? This movie also raise very profound questions, are we human first? Or we are our nation first? Are we fighting for our nations? Or we are fighting for the entities who create war? How sad that Jeanne and Werner have to forsake their love and die for the war. Jeanne and her grandfather's home give Werner a place to be true to his humanity, as such, he touched Jeanne and her grandfather in the most profound way. This amazing film and its actors, the music manage to lift me up and for a short time i am immersed in the vibration of love. Thank you Thomas Jouannet, Julie Delarme for a transcendent performance.

@@charlottevairet3453 Thanks for the compliment, surely from today's vantage point, that would be a logical question, what sane politician, elected by the people would want to go on a war path that would incinerate a good portion of civilization? Sadly, we have been indoctrinated with Materialism for too long, many have forgotten that there is a spiritual dimension to our human experience, that we are much more than our forms, we are consciousness, spirits, eternal. We are only here inside a body for a blip of time to experience this dimension. What set us apart is this divine spark inside us, and we have free will. But this 3D world we live in is heavily manipulated, it is like a black box theatre, the unseen crew (stage designers, lighting designers, script writers, the director, the customer designer) control the stage on which we play out our stories. The ultimate goal is for us to awaken to the true nature of who we are, that truth is we are divine beings having a human experience. So, this question Jean Bruller explored, have been answered on a different level by many spiritual masters from the past and the present time. We are poised to have a great awakening at the present time. Look up the Dimensional Shift, or Planetary Ascension if you wish to explore this topic. And I do think the 2004 reinterpretation of Le Silence de la Mer has amazing spiritual power, it breaches the veil for some of us and let us merge in the ocean of the LOVE consciousness----the cosmic consciousness.

But the most evil Stalin, killed Twenty million of those he hated either outright or sending them to Siberia. He particularly targeted the Polish because he wanted their land, but anyone who he hated. Then the evil “Uncle Joe” was appeased by the USA and Great Britain and they betrayed the Polish.

Both won't never, ever forget that short episode that occured in their lives during WW2 . No matter what happens next, they will remain in each other 's heart for ever. Although, no word was spoken, they said a lot to each other in their own way. That's why 'Le Silence de la Mer' is so exaordinary, and unforgettable.

Going back to the notion of "Talking really get in the way" not for the characters but for us. Talking dilutes the intensity of the feelings. Without talking, the characters invite us into their hearts, and let us feel what they were experiencing. This movie has this spiritual power or energetic signature that no other film has ever gave me.

@@paulad.5875 Thomas Jouannet is Swiss French (born in Geneva in 1970). He has starred in a diverse number of TV movies and series. He is listed as #5 on the list of 40 French actors both alive and deceased. He is still gorgeous at age 53. Married 14 years to a French actress and writer. Father of three children. I absolutely adore him!

@@patquint3291 Me too. He was trained as a comedian funny enough. Comedy is huge in France, 30% of movies are comedy. But Thomas Jouannet's Werner von Ebrennac is INCOMPARABLE. He has created an ideal----can I say an angel in disguise. This Werner is a role model of respect, kindness, chivalry, creativity, openhearted, loving person. All boys and young men should watch this movie and see what a real man is.

This movie is by far one of the greatest films l have ever seen and now since I am trying to learn French it's easy to read the subtitles and learn merci

Thank you downloading this film, which I loved dearly. Love all the actors that made this film stand out for their performances and storyline.

Darcybeth. Thank you for making available this beautiful story. I have watched four times and am completely enthralled by this story and will watch many times more. Who could think a 90 year old woman would be so touched by a love story. Even in times of war there are moments of beauty and possibilities. I never watch romances but this was unlike those syrupy smaltzy ones that women seem to like. It was pure love, respect and admiration for the other that was stifled by being foes through no fault of their own. . I am sure Werner was killed at the Russian Front. Since Jeanne took the place of her friends in the resistance it is probable that she may have faced the firing squad. The acting, directing, script writing and all it took to make this film was first class. I know I am rambling on but there is so much to be said for this magnificent piece of work.

Both good films, so glad there was subtitles, though I think if it was silent, you would still capture the story, it was beautiful, forbidden love 🌹

Superb, make me cry at the end

Delighted to have found such a fabulous movie and to have spent the best hour & a half watching

An extraordinary movie. I love it! Without saying a word, the man express through his beautiful eyes how much love he feels for her. Something that called my attention was the young girl Solange playing the piano. My name is also Solange and I have a knowledge of my French name but never knew the pronunciation in French. Thank you, KZread, for bringing to us such a GREAT movie.

What a beautiful film!They are hard to find these days so it was a joyful surprise.Thankyou.

It's one of the finest human nature that's depicted here

I have watched this movie more than 5 times.because this is the best romantic movie i have ever seen. in the beginning she hated him so much.but in the end her heart was won by him. love can feel any unexpected time for any person even an enemy. There wasn' t any sexual relataionship even a little touch.but both of them has fell in love unconditionally. specially Vaner is a very decent and he knows well how to respect them although he is a Nazi officer . That is the reason she fell in love with him. what a beautiful love it is .. She changed her hairstyle to get the attention of him. she kissed his shawl possionately. she hugged his pillow. bez there wasn't any way to cuddle him.after hearing his foot-step suddenly she ran into her room and but she was near the door. at that moment if Verner talked to her he could have captured her.but he could control his feeling, love and lust for her. bez if he did it, her life could be miserable because of him.that is the real love. if we love some one truly we always try to keep them happily. what a pure love it is ..! she didn't talk any word with him till he left . but their eyes and gestures talked thousands and thousand words silently. some time that silent can make more deep and powerful feeling than words. after watching this movie , i thought i could be Jenny at least just one minitue.bez i never had such a beautiful love story in my life.

Pure love conquers lust

Werner is “take care” kind of guy. When he sees a light in the back entrance he goes to investigate that everything is ok. When Jeanne’s cousin assaults her, with one look at him Werner tells him “if you so much as touch her you’re done” and when he pauses as he climbs the stairs and looks at Jeanne, his look says “if you were mine I would’ve protected you from harm”

@@bassol441either he was about to tell her how he feels about her, but that would be very obvious. More likely, he wants to let her know that they are on the trail of her friends in the resistance so she can warn them (that would tie in with the theme later on, of Jeanne wanting to warn him about the car bomb; yet if she does, she’s sort of collaborating with the enemy that’s why she resorts to the stormy piano piece). Wow, this movie is so full of “coded” communications. I can see this movie being an assignment in a literature course; there’s so much to write about.

A powerful love story . Superb. I had tears at the end .

This book/movie is the best love story I’ve ever seen. ❤

The Elegance of this movie pinpoints how derelict our contemporary time is . One again and forever : « Past has a great Future »

Je regarde régulièrement ce très beau film avec toujours la même emautipn . Le silence de la mer avec 3 admirable acteurs , Werner est très beau .et convainquant .

J’ai suivie ce film de nombreuses fois et il me reste fixe dans la mémoire sans aucun dégât !

Oh I love this film. I so want them to find eachother again after the War.

Enjoyable movie with great performance by lead actors. Silence makes it unique & memorable. Really loved it.

Спасибо , за то, что фильм на французском языке с английскими субтитрвми! ❤ Впечатление от фильма на французском языке еще большее, звучат голоса актеров! 🙏💕

"Silence" only concerning spoken words, but a resounding symphony of deep, heartfelt emotions. You see and feel, how hard it became for her, to maintain thus self- imposed silence. Ironically, it was better for her to restrain her emotions, regarding what expected women, who had intimate relationships with german soldiers, after the war.Many thanks for uploading this wonderful movie.

Have a look to 2 other master pieces of italian cinema : " malena" with monica belucci... Taviani bros if my memory is fair... "une journée particuliere" / "a day so particular" something like this from Ettore Scola with 2 italiians actors : sophia Loren and Marcelo Mastroïanni. The first is a "must" on same theme about various colors of grey during war times. The 2d is a wonderful confrontation under italian fascism between 2 visions.. 2 "realities" of a typical italian mother and married simple woman... And a gay progressist journalist. (sent to livari islands a concentration camp). Another show on multiple colors of grey during war times.

@@wujibifan5938 those 2 are for sure. A last one... Which is one of my best on pre-nazi period.. If yu want to understand how Adolf 's supporters won... Got the power by terrorisying german people early 30ties, is "the egg of snake" by ingmar bergman the swedish movie maker. As my grand parents (on both sides) lived in germany and fleed in france in 35 (my mom' s side) and 39 (dad's one)... Once (i was 27 yo my Oma around 70) ... I proposed my Oma / gran ma to vision this movie. She stood quiet during the movie. Then at the end asked me "who made this movie?"... I told her. Then slowly she said " the best movie I ever saw... on" how they did to get the power"... This guy lived it... Am sure. He was in germany during this period". I said "yes! Ingmar bergman was in berlin learning at the" Uffa mega cinema city" how to make movies... He was a student there. . Then he fleed back in sweden. And spent the war in his motherland where Willy Brandt - the leader of young Spd party yu belonged to yurself and future "prime minister" / kanzler , continued the resistance against Adolf. Yur right he lived this period in germany ! "

Cette histoire d'amour sous l'occupation allemande est très touchante, un amour où rien est dit , un amour impossible ! Les acteurs sont remarquables ! Un très beau film !

What a magnificent film, just couldn't get enough of it. I wish the movie was a little bit longer to have more scenes or some detail about the letter he received and what he wanted to say to her before her grandfather interrupted. I know their love doesn't need more words but that would be nice to know what he wanted to say. I don't think he just wanted to say he loves her. His actions already showed everything. He must have something else he wanted to explain or something he couldn't use his eyes or actions to express. Just a wish...So, I ordered the book and am waiting to read it to understand more.

Have you read the book? Did you get any clue what he wanted to say, or what was in the letter...If you know, do tell me. Warm regards.

Mind ,soul ,heart , and spirit all encompassing. Thank you Thank you

I have seen this movie before in bits and pieces, not in its entirety until now. Thomas Jouannet was great as Werner. The nonverbal communication between him and Jeanne played by Delarmme spoke volume with their eyes. I can watch this movie over and over again. The book it was based on missed so much.

Un très très beau film... avec le grand Michel Galabru comme bonus.

It breaks my heart to see two people in love, both love music so much, but cannot express it but only with their eyes because of war.

I loved this movie❤❤❤ it was SO GOOD. Im going to watch it again ... and probably again and again😊

Such a good development of the characters! This is pure romanticism,artful scenery, camera focus on eyes that speak without words. Beautiful faces, beautiful souls yearning for love in a cruel social situation. Shed a lot of tears, you romantic people ! Cry about the circumstance of this man and woman . I watched this film 6 times already and decided to buy the DVD. Precious item on the same shelf with Eugene Onegin, a film that also moved me so much.

1:03:20 shows he really cared. He rescued her from rape and in the end, she saved him from the bomb.

Was für ein ruhiger und dennoch emotional dichter Film. Zerrissenheit zwischen Feindschaft und Liebe - ohne Worte.

One of the most beautiful films that I’ve ever seen.

Thoroughly enjoyed the movie !! Good acting & a good story too !! Thanks for uploading.

And for Germany, Russia, the European continent, and the world! 100 million people died in WWII. Everyone was someone's son, daughter, husband, wife, mother, father, uncle, aunt....think of the trauma stored in the DNA of all of us....We must not allow the Elite/Government(s) dictate war to us again. Every time they plan, orchestrate, produce war, ordinary citizens die.

This movie is great, the grandfather seems so real, and granddaughter plays the part so wonderful!,

Another Masterpiece of War movies, with great acting!❤

Beautiful on so many levels. Cinematography predictive and superb.
