The German Nurse
By M.J. Hollows
⭐️⭐️⭐️

Her past could kill you.
Guernsey, 1940. As war storms through Europe, Churchill orders the evacuation of all military personnel from the island. Boats ferry soldiers and vulnerable young children to England, leaving their parents and loved ones behind to face the invading German army on their own.
 
Her love could save you.
One of the few remaining policemen on the island, Jack must protect not only his friends and family, but also the woman he loves: Johanna, a Jewish nurse from Germany, whose secret faith could prove fatal to them both.
 
Her fate is in your hands.
When the Nazis arrive, everything changes. Jack is forced to come to terms with the pain and loss of a world re-making itself around him. And then a list of Jews on the island is drawn up, and he must make an awful choice: write down Johanna’s name and condemn her, or resist and put his family in immediate danger…

A good read for those who love historical fiction. This was definitely a heartbreaking story.
Set during German occupation of Gernsey.

"This film is another touchstone for me, and I have based several paintings on it (as well as on many other films on my list). Toulouse, France, during the German occupation. A very odd romance blooms between the mismatched young couple. Aurore Clément is fabulous. Pierre Blais died soon after. Great Django Reinhardt soundtrack."

Decent
This German movie(dubbed in English) turned out better than expected. The cinematography was good. The acting was pretty decent, actually. The story itself played out fairly well and, while somewhat predictable, entertained. Nothing fast paced or too gory/scary or anything, it kept interest throughout. Overall, this one is worth a watch.
