Haven’t read the book, but watched the film on Sunday and really liked it. I also have an aunt who was placed in Guernsey just after the war, so I’ve visited a bunch of times and the island really is still like that.
I may have missed it, but was a story line left out about the German soldier's family being notified of his child?
Dave, in the movie the German family isn’t identified. The group is a little more protective of Amelia’s feelings.
We watched it Sunday. My sister’s book group read and discussed it some time ago. The film is beautifully made, the story is a wonderful antidote to modern idiotic malcontent news.

I just saw this absolutely charming movie on Netflix. Probably many of you read the book. It’s brand new to film and has some favorite actors like Tom Courtenay,Penelope Wilson and Katherine Parkinson. I liked it so much I’m watching it again(not today).
