Customer Reviews of Aimee and Jaguar
Aimee & Jaguar Having first read the book and enjoyed it tremendously, I was
unsure if the film would come up to my expectations. I should
not have had any concerns.
This is a beautiful lesbian love story set during World War II
as seen through the eyes of women. Not being the soppy love
story fan myself, I have to say that this film has so much more
to offer than mere romance. It is an intense film which takes
you into the minds of the persecuted Jew at the time of WWII,
yet Felice fights for her freedom and spits in the face of terror.
Casting and cinematography are exceptional. Truly a beautiful,
beautiful, emotional movie.

What a beautifully filmed story - I was transported to Berlin during the Nazi regime and became emotionally attached to the characters. I felt the fear as the Nazi's steadily & feverently hunted down and deported the remaining Jewish people with heartbreaking viciousness. I felt as if I knew the characters and the movie stayed in my head many days after seeing, which is the sign of a great film. Great acting, great story and filmed with such an eye for the time. I could really feel the pain, the anger, the desperateness, the fear and at times the happiness that the characters went through - it was heart wrenching. The love that develops between the main characters Lilly (Aimee) & Felice (Jaguar) is so well acted, with great tenderness, pulled me more and more into the story. I would HIGHLY recommend this film - what a great character study of two women in desperate times and the hope that their love brings gives courage for them to go on. See this Film!
Gorgeously Emotional!!!!
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!!
