That's what I call music, simply beautiful, expresses more feelings than words.

Yves, but even if his love had not been forbidden, don't you think the one he was in love with would not have considered himself as too beautiful to accept it ?

Very interesting movie. Hara and Lawrance, Celliers and Yonoi are kinda two pairs of mirror images in the two sides of the war... The director has good taste in the ending.
