Summary: Gorgeously Emotional!!!!
Review: A story of forbidden love in WWII Nazi Germany, "Aimee & Jaguar" follows the lives of two very different women: Felice Schragenheim, a Jewish revolutionary sneaking through Germany under a false German name. Then there is Lilly Wust (pronounced 'Voost', in German) whose husband is a Nazi soldier fighting on the Eastern front, leaving her at home with four boys. Frau Wust's babysitter, Ilse, is one of Felice's many girlfriends and when Felice is introduced to Lilly, she falls madly in love. She writes Lilly love poems and signs them as Jaguar and soon, the two are forced to accept their feelings for one another amidst the hatred and odium. A movie of raw power, "Aimee & Jaguar" is not a story just about love but also accepting it in times of need and fear. You may find yourself crying and i admit, i cried myself (i cry endlessly when seeing Felice's and Lilly's "mistake" when coming home from the picnic, i cry every time i see that part). The love scenes here are done tastefully (and quite romantically, may i add) and the words of wisdom are...amzing. especially when Felice is talking about "Now's" and Lilly talking about "50 years of one person"...Powerful!!

Summary: Felice is an incredible character
Review: Aimee & Jaguar is a love story, yes, but more interestingly, it is a powerful tribute to an amazing woman, Felice Schragenheim. Maria Schrader infuses the character of Felice with emotional depth and winning appeal. At the end of this movie, you understand why Lilly Wust wanted to tell Felice's story 50 years later. And in creating this film, Max Faberbock has given us a true heroine, one who is at once fearless and vulnerable. I'm sure I'm not alone in wishing there could be a sequel.

Summary: Amazing...
Review: Aimee and Jaguar is an astounding film- almost eerie in its realism. The DVD features are amazing- especially the photo gallery of pictures of Lilly and Felice. This movie broke my heart, but also helped to reinforce my notion of true love. A must own. Everyone should see this.

Summary: Aimee and Jaguar - A powerful story of lesbian love
Review: Aimee and Jaguar is an unconvential film that makes excellent usage of story, acting, and cinematography. The director provides an honest but factual view of the development of lesbian love in Wartime Germany. The actresses that portray Felice and Lily have a sexual quality that makes this story even more believable. The fact that it is TRUE and Lily is a survivor makes the film even more interesting. This is a must see film for those who are interested in an unusual relationship during the height of World War II in Berlin. I enjoyed the film.

Summary: A compelling love story of two women
Review: Aimee et Jaguar is a moving and compelling love story based on the true story of two women caught in the chaos of Berlin during WWII... As if being a lesbian in Nazi Germany were not dangerous enough, Felice Schrader is also a Jewish woman working covertly for the Resistance. Her passionate and initially unrequited love for a housewife and mother of 4 who is maried to a Nazi is a stunning demonstration of the chaos that love creates. It is also an example of the timeless adage that love is blind...

Summary: unbeschreiblich, grausam und schön
Review: An important story about beauty, strength and the human touch in a time of sick paranoia and insanity. No Hollywood movie could ever convey with such honesty the message of the power of love, the greatest human potential and chance for making this world more liveable to everyone. I hope the price goes down fast so this videa can start to fulfill its task to educate and touch in the States as well--especially, this would be my hope, on college campuses!

Summary: Do Not Miss This Film. ...
Review: An utterly compelling and sensitive portrait of two women living in wartime Nazi Germany: Lilly (German) and Felice (Jewish). Their love story is one of the most poignant I've seen in lesbian cinema. The actresses are beautiful and their chemistry is palpable and erotic. The range of emotions called upon in this film are well crafted by the actresses. It is, at times, difficult to watch. The fact that it is a true story will break your heart. The story may also be purchased in paperback. Lilly Wust is alive today and living in Berlin.
