This is a WW2 story I knew nothing about until I saw the film. And when it finished, I read all about Copenhagen and" the collateral damage" of war. This is a beautifully shot, haunting film with actors who are as good as they should be in such a film. The Bombardment is history repeating itself in the Ukraine today. As for "God dropping a pencil and disappearing for two years"..God had nothing to do with any of it. Men start wars. Just look at what is happening in Europe today. Everyone should see this movie.

A bit of light-hearted fun written by Anita Loos ( Gentlemen Prefer Blondes /The Women fame). Have just finished reading Sweethearts the book written by Sharon Rich about the life-long relationship between Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy so thought I would watch all their films. You can see the chemistry was still there in this, their last movie together. It was obvious in Maytime (1937) that both were very emotional as Mayer had not allowed Jeanette to marry Nelson and they ended up married to other people and unhappy...long story read the book...
