Help me find the name of this film

[coffeeandpeace]

A German aristocrat couple have their home taken over by nazis. They eventually decide to leave everything and flee. Does anyone know the name of this film please ?

Hmm...

Woman in Gold?

Aftermath I think 🤔

It's an old film

The Aryan Couple?

Sound of music?

The Damned?

It sounds like you're describing the film "The Sound of Music" (1965). While the main plot revolves around a woman named Maria, who becomes a governess to the von Trapp family, the von Trapp family is indeed an Austrian aristocratic family. As the story unfolds, they decide to flee their home to escape the Nazi regime. The film, directed by Robert Wise, is a classic musical that stars Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer.

@ACGTHelix - are you chatGTP? that sounds exactly like a bot

Wow you don't remember much about the film .. a bit more detail might help

I agree. It's the last line that gives it away.

I only used it to find the film apologies if it's not helpful to the OP. my reasoning was i do not have a full detailed knowledge of different films and i was trying to answer the op with the correct film they wanted rather than random guessing.

i used the assistant to find this film on this thread:
https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/_chat/4926754-what-is-this-film-please?reply=130166319

and it was a success.

This has destroyed my faith in AI chatbots, given that the nazis in The Sound of Music don’t take over the house.
Try again @ACGTHelix, if that even is your name.

That is creepy.

As if most users on here don't know the film Sound of Music!

true, but considering the details of the last film request that were incorrect and yet the correct film was located 1/2 films is quite good especially as no one else had guessed the correct film on the other thread.

Anyway my apologies for trying to help and guess the film for the op

OP, you could really give more info to narrow it down. How long ago did you see it, roughly how old it is, was it in English or German? Did you see it in the cinema or Netflix? You have more details than you provided.

I think op would have known if it was The Sound of Music surely.

It's in English, black and white film. The maid of the house is blonde, Jewish and the owners of the house manage to get her to safety. They eventually decided to leave the house and all the contents, including paintings and other valuables. The man says "at least we have our lives"

Its the best i could get with your information, hope this helps

The film you are describing is likely "The Mortal Storm," released in 1940. It is a black and white film directed by Frank Borzage. The movie depicts the impact of the rise of Nazism on a German family. The main characters are a German professor and his family, and the narrative explores the challenges they face as their lives are affected by the changing political climate in Nazi Germany. The details you mentioned, including the aristocratic couple leaving their home, the maid being Jewish, and the decision to leave everything behind, match the plot of "The Mortal Storm."

@ACGTHelix thank you ! So happy you've found it 😊

Your welcome I cannot take full credit as I used an assistant to find it, but at least it was a successful result.
