Not all the German's were bad guys. I'm willing to bet a lot of them too, just wanted to get home alive and return to their post war lives. Although many Germans went abroad like Canada or the U.S to start over being Germany was destroyed and half of it for 40 years living under the Russians
Let me have another opinion since my grandfathers told us how bad you misbehaved in Greece!Althogh the German soldier was more righteous than the italian one,not harasing the locals without a reason....when it came to revenge for some partisan action,Germans were the most cruel bastards ever to live.They commited small-scale ''genocides'' against innocent people,just for living in villages close to some incidents where a german soldier was killed
@@kevininsomne well you surprise me. I have worked with German people for around 35 years and have never experienced this. Like most ordinary folk they just want to live a normal life. I have many happy memories with my German friends. Should we hold all German people accountable forever for what happened in the wars? I think not. If we acted like this then we English would have a lot to answer for. Yes what they did to the Jewish people was inhumane, but the younger generations should not be made to feel guilt. You cannot change history but we can certainly learn from it. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
mia madre durante la guerra aveva un comando tedesco vicino casa, mi disse che quei ragazzi in particolar modo un ufficiale tedesco erano di una gentilezza inaudita, nel pieno rispetto dell'essere umano, molti di loro confessarono che odiavano hitler e quella guerra.
One thing puzzles me. If those women consider they would be traitors to dance or show affection to the occupying soldiers - WHY COME TO THE GODDAMN DANCE IN THE FIRST PLACE?

The Mandoline 👮♂️👸💖💕
Yeah, I couldn't keep myself smiling. It wouldn't surprise me that Nick also learnt the mandolin for this movie.

Italians were a different breed than the germans, for them italians were like cousins, germans were invaders
the accents in this film are horrible, they did not even get close to a good german, italian, greek accent.
Maybe, but it is still a great film:-)
rubbish is it? the war was far more ruthless and took high up orders
