Movie Reviews of Aimee and Jaguar
Movie Review: Beautiful & Sad
Summary: 5 Stars
I must admit that I avoided watching this movie for a very long time, just because of the hype surrounding it. Now, I wish I had not waited so long.
This film stays with you for days and days after you've watched it and makes you want to know more, much more. All about the characters, their thoughts, hopes and fears. It is easy to forget that these women were very young (in ther twenties) when this happened to them. Also, it is a movie, that makes you hold on a little bit tighter to your lovged one at night.
I highly recommend it. And the hype is right...
Summary of Aimee and Jaguar
In 1943, while the Allies are bombing Berlin and the Gestapo is purging the capital of Jews, a dangerous love affair blossoms between two women. One of them, Lilly Wust (Juliane K?hler), married and the mother of four sons, enjoys the privileges of her stature as an exemplar of Nazi motherhood. For her, this affair will be the most decisive experience of her life. For the other woman, Felice Schragenheim (Maria Schrader), a Jewess and member of the underground, their love fuels her with the hope that she will survive. A half-century later, Lilly Wust told her incredible story to writer Erica Fischer, and thebook, AIMEE & JAGUAR, first published in 1994 immediately became a bestseller and has since been translated into eleven languages. Max F?rberb?ck's debut film, based on Fischer's book, is the true story of this extraordinary relationship. The film was nominated for a 1999 Golden Globe Award and was Germany's submission for the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar. Both actresses received Silver Bears at the 1999 Berlin International Film Festival for their portrayals of "Aim?e" and "Jaguar".Art House & International DVD Video
