"One of the great films of the 1990s, receiving nine Oscars - including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Supporting Actress (for Juliette Binoche). One of the great merits is the script, based on a book of the same name, which combines World War II with a love story, as well as involving the viewer with a mystery about the protagonist's story. A complex account for a tragic and beautiful plot."
