Foreign:Dutch Subtitles One more of the 50 million stories that came out of the horrendous human experiences of WWII. Unfortunately the plot of the film is so predicable and contrived that you never really feel and relate to the characters.
This story concerns twin sisters who grow up during the 30's and 40's. In 1926, as orphans Lotte and Anna are stupidly separated (we never are told why) and forbidden to contact each other. (Another contrivance). Each woman becomes romantically involved with a different suitor. When the war breaks out, both sisters lose their men and never regain their footing. When they can get together in their middle years they predictably separate again. Finally, finally they come together as aged women. Nothing.
