Description
Kay Miniver doesn`t fly a Spitfire in dogfights over London or ply the North Sea in a battleship, but she`s doing her all for wartime England. And she does it so well that Winston Churchill would say Mrs. Miniver was more vital to the nation than a fleet of destroyers.
Winner of six Academy Awards including Best Picture, this memorable spirit-lifter about an idealized England that tends to its prize-winning roses while confronting the terror of war struck a patriotic chord with audiences and became 1942`s Nr. 1 box-office hit. Greer Garson gives a formidable Oscar-winning title-role performance, comforting children in a bomb shelter, capturing an enemy parachutist and delivering an inspirational portrait of stiff-upper lip British resolve. When Hitler did his worst, Mrs. Miniver did her best.

Schön und ergreifend
Endlich habe ich diesen raren Film gefunden, es hat sich von der ersten bis zur letzten Minute gelohnt. Passend sind die Rollen besetzt und ganz ohne Kitsch wird die Geschichte einer Familie im Krieg erzählt. Und dann der Schluss in der zerbombten Kirche mit der grossartigen Predigt und der Musik - für mich eine der schönsten Schlussszenen überhaupt.

Ce chef d'oeuvre est sous-titré en français !!
Ce classique toujours aussi attachant et puissant est accessible pour tout cinéphile francophone : rien ne me fait plus plaisir que de le signaler, dès lors que cela est trop souvent oublié ! ^_^
