Script written only for those who know the real story. Polished costumes and setting do not travel us back to time but to the actual movie setting. And when you expect the director to give most of his respect to the dead, two major mistakes happen: 1) during the prisoners' transfer, we clearly see the modern road's sign of it being dug to bury optical fibres (obviously not yet invented in 1944) 2) the director's struggle to capture a realistic execution as if he was competing Hollywood

Konstantinou & Hennicke's performances are outstanding. These held my hand from giving the movie a much lower rate.

I haven't cried so much for a long time!!! Impressive!!

As The Last Note is based on true events you watch it with different eyes. The story is different than in the usual world war II movies so that's also a bonus. This story is about the Greek resistance versus the Nazis. After an ambush from the Greek resistance against the Nazis there are reprisals that won't let anybody indifferent. The Last Note is an emotional movie, maybe a tiny bit too long in my eyes, but nevertheless it's an interesting movie with good actors. The movie is a bit predictable at one point but it doesn't really matter as it's more a historical drama rather than a mystery story.

"The Last Note" is a Drama - History movie in which we watch the events of the 1st of May 1944 when German occupiers executed 200 Greek resistance fighters in Kaisariani after an ambush Greek resistance against Nazis.

Since I knew the story of the execution of those 200 people in Kaisariani I was curious to see how it will be presented and I have to admit that Pantelis Voulgaris who was the director did an incredible good job. He succeeded on both presenting the history correctly, and also showed us the backstory of it and the everyday life of Greeks during the occupation by the Nazis. The interpretations of Andreas Konstantinou who played as Napoleon Soukatzidis, André Hennicke who played as Karl Fischer and Melia Kreiling who played as Hara Lioudaki mad the difference. All in all, I have to say that "The Last Note" is a nice movie that presents a horrible event as true as possible.

Based on true events, this film takes place in 1943 during the German occupation of Greece and follows a group of resistance fighters who are captured and faced with a grim fate. The movie beautifully weaves together themes of sacrifice, courage, and the human spirit during desperate times. The performances are raw and heartfelt, especially by Andreas Konstantinou, who brings depth and nuance to his role. The emotional weight is palpable, and I found myself really invested in the characters' fates. The cinematography captures the haunting beauty of the Greek landscape, contrasting sharply with the darkness of the story. One of the standout elements for me was the film's ability to blend hope with despair, leaving viewers with a sense of unresolved tension. It's not an easy watch, but it definitely sticks with you and sparks important conversations about freedom and resistance. If you're looking for a heartfelt drama that respects history while telling a compelling story, The Last Note is definitely worth checking out! Just be prepared to have your heartstrings pulled.
