Review of Un amour à taire

I swear this movie would bring you to tears like how cruel the war was to people of any sexual orientation! I was so peed off with the brother, for exposing Jean as a gay man who danced with some Nazi officer in some gay club and that he was transferred to a concentration camp. However unfortunately he was labotimized so he was dying slowly and he wasn't himself anymore. What's even more sadder and horrifying, his lover Philippe was shot dead by the nazis and was thrown on the floor of the apartment block. I reckon they found out he was gay too but it wasn't clear enough to give me the reason why they did it to him. I felt sorry for poor Sara that she lost the men in her life. Although I wouldn't feel sorry for the brother who purposely just wanted to get Jean out of the picture and be able to get help from the Nazis so that he can become the boss of the family laundrette!

Reflecting back of the movie makes me wanna cry again like seriously, it's just so gut wrenching to see innocent people being treated wrong regardless of religion, gender and sexual ortiention . I mean hate crime is still ongoing today so there'll never be lessons learnt on that.

Fantastic but extremely sad film, really one of the best French films I've ever come across!
