The scenery , music, and passion in this movie is beyond words, absolutely one of the most romantic and beautiful movies I have ever seen...
100 %
I m still here.
Love from Greece
I fell in love with this island thirty years ago and have been back every year since. Once you visit it pulls at your heart strings to go back. ❤️🌺🌹🇬🇧
Quite simply magnificent movie and music of such class puts today's to shame
Lovely film and best actors
Bellissimo film e grande musica 👍👍
Very much ... la musica bella cosi .....
I love this music very much and the movie also
Some sad feelings are prevailing when I hear this music.
All i need to say is Bellisimo!!
I can not say how this story could effect in my heart .I really love the story ...more than 10 time I read the book ...
Yes... Only but in true life the young girl from Cephalonia during the second world war had never abandoned the communist patriot for the Italian conqueror according the true history....In fact, after the ending of war, Italian captain Antonio Bambaloni(as his true name was) returned to the island and he found the girl he had felt in love married with her beloved man, who fighted the Italians in Albania.... I do not believe in romantic love but in real love and in the island of Cephalonia, we all know that the novel of Louis de Bernieres as the movie too counterfeits obviously the history of the heroic resistance of Greek people against German and Italian conquerors....
Sorry for my bad English...
Didn't you watch the film? It is wanderful! Greetings from Argentina!
@@blackrose89-96 Ouch !!! I was almost so sure about their Italiano-Greek Mediterranean wonderful marriage. You ruined my sensitive believes with that real story of a Greek Girl and ... Capitano Bambaloni (Corelli) :o((
Ι know my friend. Me too i have read this book again and again. That was the reason that i searched in the documents of Cephalonia their story and i found the truth throughout many many writings and sources from that period.Anyway,Greeks and especially Cephalonians independently from the war we always love Italians as we feel their influences on our culture and in our every-day-life and because we are very closed neighborhoods. ❤️
@@blackrose89-96 Thank U black rose 89 ... I greatly appreciate your information. By the way ... this Greek island must be so beautiful, eh ?? It is my dream to go there ... one fine day ... if I would have enough time to live in my life. Before I ended up my life in Canada, I lived for 4 years in a couple of places in Italy, as a political refugee from that time communist Poland.
So far ... greetings from damn cold Canada to you to the beautiful Cephalonia Island and its lovely people :o)
Beautiful music..soothes the heart.

Pleasure, glad you enjoyed the video Natalia.
Thank you David, this is lovely together. I have not seen the film so you have given me something to look forward to. Love most of the actors, so...thank you for a double gift.
Hi Deborah, I think I'm probably in a minority but I didn't like the film that much, or the book. Thought Stephen Warbeck's music was lovely though.
@@davidharris2844 Ok, well thanks for the heads up David! I am dying for going to the movies. I used to go almost weekly. Watching at home is nice, however, I love to hear people laughing or crying or just their reactions. Lets not forget the aroma of popcorn and the annoying crunching noises all around. 😋
Love this movie, love this music, thank you for posting, from NYC.
Pleasure, glad you enjoyed it Jay.
I was lucky to spend a few weeks in kefalonia and was able to visit all the places, its a beautiful island the movie is amazing but it dont do justice to the beauty that is Kefalonia.
Amazing!😇🌸🌺🌷
This affects my heart as well
Thanks David. I had forgotten about this movie and how enjoyable it was. Will have to watch again. The music was just beautiful...loved it! I love the sound of mandolin also, along with a banjo, fiddle, flute and piano....what a combination! Although Kenny G has captured me a few times with his clarinet and a very few jazz players with the sax. Again, when each instrument is played well, it's got a life of it's own...taking our mind imagination into another time and place.
Hi Lana. Strangely enough I wasn't keen on either the book or the film, which is a shame as it's such a good story. However, I think Stephen Warbeck's music is perfect.
@@davidharris2844 Hard to say, because in reality the Italian soldiers who occupied 65% to 70% of my country during World War Two (given to them but Germans who then occupied the major cities and ports and areas of lands considered of great strategic importance) committed a fair amount of atrocities far savage than the Germans in revenge for having lost the initial battles.
Captain Corelli would have more preyed on Pelagia, not courted her, as rape and coerced "horizontal collaboration" (WW2 term) was not uncommon of Greek women by Italian military. As her home would have been looted and pillaged like the many stores, churches, homes, etc. under Italian watch. Her friends, if Greek Jews, would have been victim to mass round ups and forced deportation to concentration camps... where more than 100,000 perished to their deaths by Italian administration in support of the German Final Plan.
If Pelagia did indeed love Captain Corelli... after the war's end, especially in remembrance of that delightful tango scene, the Greek villagers would have rounded her up and the other naive Greek girls for "horizontal collaboration" and shaved their heads for shame.
Captain Corelli would have made her father, the doctor, treat Italian soldiers first ... and the Greek with a more pressing emergency would have been made wait (and even die)... and Greek villagers often went without proper medical care as needed medicines were sourced to the Italians.
Her father, the Greek doctor, lecturing and talking he way he did to Captain Corelli... would have been beaten, or saw his daughter assaulted in his view.
The Italians and Germans also stole agricultural crops from Greek farmers... more than one million Greeks died of starvation.
My grandparents, whom I never met, were burned alive by Italian and German soldiers in a barn with scores of other Greek villagers.
This was a disgusting book written by a Brit who chose not to research the real Italian occupation. This was a disgusting movie where Hollywood used its usual artistic license and glossed a very grim and dark time in my country's history.
Sorry!
@@nickkokkas16 No need to be sorry at all Nick, I agree with you. And I didn't like the book or the film either, apart from anything else I thought they were both badly written. I do, however like the music, in fact I think it is beautiful.
Your knowledge of what occurred at that time is obviously very personal and far greater than mine, which is non-existent.
War and conflict are repulsive and unnecessary things in which people behave abominably. And we don't learn, they still happen. I do wonder though if, in such situations, there won't always be a few people who try and act in a humane and reasonable manner, not that that is any excuse for the appalling book and film.
Anyway, my apologies if you found the video offensive. My intention was merely to platform the music.
@@davidharris2844 I might have gone too hard, my apologies, but thank you being civil with me. I do agree with you, however, the soundtrack and music composition is absolutely romantic. The composition and mixture is well done!
@@nickkokkas16 It's really not a problem Nick. I appreciate the honesty of your comment.
pura passione...
Beautiful music
I live this film and Pelegrina in the Slovenia❤❤❤❤
Beautiful movie, pelagia beautiful greek name, l love greek slands kefhalonia🇬🇷🇧🇷
Один из моих любимых фильмов❤
LOVE
Nem lehet utálni ezt a zenét. Akármikor hallom bele borzongok!!
애절한 사랑의 서사시!
🥇
Beside the romance this film brings, one major thing should be retained. Most of the Italians, particularly in occupied areas such as Greece and Corsica, never fired a bullet. And when they had to do it, they fired at Germans.
Si concjerto bvona per mee,….🇲🇰❤
Slovenija❤❤❤
Danke für das Video.
Vergnügen, schön, dass es dir gefallen hat, Denis.
