You walk out of this motion picture and are at awe. This is what cinema is all about: Being transported into a different world, WWI and 1920. Superb story of a young woman looking for her lost fiancée and not giving up in the long process. Absolutely marvellous pictures with breathtaking SFX of Paris locations. The war scenes are as shocking as Spielberg's "Private Ryan" film maybe even more
Take your love interest and enjoy this truly magic picture.
Only too sad for the (French) makers of the film, that it was classified as a NOT French production, 'cause of US Money (Warner Bros.). (Budget in the 50 Mil Euro range ) Wasn't therefore eligible for Best Foreign film. Very few admissions in the US, same sad story as in Leone's "Once upon the time in America". 20 years from now, it'll be regarded as a Masterpiece.
