Occupation of Paris: The Untold Story of German Soldiers

[@pattycassady]

Excellent documentary, but given all the care taken in its creation, it is unfortunate that AI narration was employed, with the resulting mispronunciations and masking of the interviewees’ voices. It’s like preparing a delicious meal and then ruining it with too much salt.

[@Christmasbaby51]

It was extremely hard to listen to.

[@blancheshahbaghlian7471]

Very informative, l appreciate that. I knew little about the occupation of Paris. Very difficult to listen to due to multiple mispronounciations in all three languages, French, German and sometimes, even English. If this were cleaned up, you would have an impressive podcast.

My grandfather was a Parisian Jew during the war. I will always remember him telling us how disgusted and shocked he was that it was French police officers who rounded up the Jews. He survived in part due to the kindness of countryside french farmers. The Parisians according to him did too little too late. They mostly submitted to their occupiers and only "woke up" when the allies were close.

[@carolinebastos5194]

oui ma famille était a la campagne, et leurs récits étaient terrible. ma grand mère a caché de nombre juifs en fuite, sans faire partie de la résistance. cela se faisait beaucoup à la campagne en tout cas. mes 2 grands pères étaient prisonniers de guerre. et des grands oncles faisaient eux partis de la résistance et en sont morts. ma grand mère paternelle, dont ses frères faisaient t partis de la resistance ne le savaient pas pour sa protection mais aussi car elle était trop bavarde apparemment. dans ma famille il y a donc eu des résistants, des prisonniers de guerre, des personnes qui ont caché des juifs de passage sans être résistant à proprement parler et des "attentistes" comme on les a appelé après ( personnes essayant juste de survivre sans dénoncer ni aider). heureusement pas de collabos.

This is an excellent documentary for a topic of the Second World War that is rarely discussed in detail. One concern I have worth pointing out is the narrator's absolutely terrible pronunciation of German and French words. I didn't expect the pronunciation to be perfect, but he absolutely butchered these words. Yes, I realize that this documentary was not originally made in the English language, but come on.

C'est la première fois que je vois sur KZbin, mais j'aurais aimé le regarder avec le texte français et/ou allemand puisqu'on a des personnages qui parlent en leur langue respective.. Juste une remarque: n'aurait-il pas été possible de trouver un narrateur ayant une petite connaissance du français pour dire les noms des endroits de Paris?

[@victoriaguidici5574]

This is awful narration. Perhaps it’s text-to-voice. I doubt that any human would say George V for George Fifth.

[@lynnhauenstein4136]

​@victoriaguidici5574 I noticed that too. Mispronounced city names. In England, US and France. Text to voice errors I assume...No doubt AI will remedy this, maybe allow us to choose the voice of narrator..or if with an accent..

[@Veromarquez2601]

Michell lo siento pero es muy difícil pronunciar bien el francés im sorry friend soy de texas siempre quise aprender francés pero me parece muy complicado quizás tendría que ir a francia solo así voy aprender pero cuando fui a francia me entendían más si hablaba espanol que ingles saludos ❤

Splendido documentario su una Parigi e un periodo che non conoscevo.....

[@i-a-g-r-e-e-----f-----jo--b]

Makes you think about it I had not done so before. I'm pretty sure the Allies had brothels in places like Africa and Italy too. There is also a really great Vichy France film documentary called The Eyes of Vichy,, it uses Vichy French newsreels and media. .

[@margaretcastell9429]

The Allies weren't occupying, the Germans were occupying. Stealing and depriving the French of food. Also murdering their Jews. The Allies weren't doing this. As for Vichy France, they too did all of the above, besides being traitors!

[@hhealy7199]

The allies were busy actually fighting the Germans not setting up shop as was done in Paris.

[@rescuepetsrule6842]

The film deserved a real narrator- the auto stuff is awful. Also, they never mentioned D-Day or the begging De Gaulle did to get Ike to detour to save Paris and let Le Clerque (?) enter the city first. Ike did it to give the French a chance to redeem it's lost honor, while allowing the Germans to get away and set up defenses. It was Ike's biggest mistake, especially after De Gualle strutted through the city claiming it was a "French victory and ONLY french". No Germans were afraid of the French 'Army', but they knew better than to fight the US. Some gratitude.

[@sequana92]

Bien vu ! de Gaulle a été complètement oublié, il faut aussi souligner la protection qu'il a reçue des Anglais et l'appel du 18 juin 40. Quant au Général rentrant dans Paris pour le libérer le 25 aout 1944, il s'agit de Philippe Leclerc de Hauteclocque.

[@badbotchdown9845]

You said only bs you know nothing about de Gaulle discourse at the hotel de.ville he have said liberated by the French =3days of civilian riot before allies have come. By French army =general Leclerc 2d Arm div. And With the HELP of allied troops. De Gaulle was the one and only who have resisted from the day one and he have thoughts how the France and republic must be restored after the collaboration.

[@rescuepetsrule6842]

@@badbotchdown9845Only a wimpy bleeding Heart like you would defend the French cowardice. If you knew anything about the War, you would know why there are millions of films of the battles and how many French fought? LOL.... go away, boy-you bother me...

[@CalTxDude]

How delightful. It's so comforting to know that the Nazis had such a lovely time while they occupied Paris! The ultimate insult. The occupyed People's homes, stole their art and eliminated countless . I generally can always appreciate perspective. Yet I find it rather offensive that the narration is almost celebratory!

It was a war and they lost. It certainly didn't prevent Hitler raising his disgusting head. Germany is doing really fine lately don't you think?

[@wingtip76]

Those were the best era for the people of Paris, not like today.

I often think how nice it must have felt for the Germans to not have to put up with scammers and hassle from pick pockets in those dark days.

The mispronunciations are SO cringy as to make this video nearly unwatchable..This is why using computer generated narration, no matter how advanced, is never a good idea.

Remember more than 25000 french men, women, and even some children were executed by the germans at Mt. Valerian prison diring those years.

[@johnsmith-mq4eq]

Over 40,000 french woman married German soldiers during the war German and french firms continued to do almost normal business up to 1944

[@dolinaj1]

Do you know how you would behave under a long and brutal occupation? Be scrupulous before condemning others so cavalierly. My parents survived fighting the duration of the war in le Résistance. They were in their late 90s before they even spoke a word about that war.

[@stanzanossi]

Yes, those were the good French! Unfortunately, way more French people collaborated with the Nazis!!!😮

[@AuxaneST]

​@@stanzanossiSubmitted more than activelly collaborated. There were 500,000 resistants, about 1 million active collabos and the rest just "survived" in humiloation.

[@stanzanossi]

​@@johnsmith-mq4eq If a Russian woman fooled around with a Nazi invaded, she would later be put up against a wall and shot! If a Polish woman did the same, after the war she could never face her neighbours again! The worst thing that happened to slutty French women was that they got their heads shaved after the Germans were defeated!!!

[@alexkuzmin1298]

I watch this movie and think: were the French and Germans really enemies?There was no struggle for freedom on the part of France, only when the Russians expelled the Germans from their land and it became clear who would win, resistance formed and a second front opened, even Keitel asked when the German surrender act was signed: Are they winners too?

[@antoniustheiler1494]

Danke für den Film, Danke.

[@jordanfernbach4976]

Il y a plus d'Afro- Maghrébins a Paris en 2024 qu'il n'y avait d'Allemands a l'époque, mais c'est du "vivre ensemble" ...

[@feraudyh]

400 million francs = 160 million euros???? Well, the comparison is somewhat ludicrous for several reasons. One is that inflation has occured since. But the less obvious one is that these were "anciens francs", which were the francs of the day. One day there was a switch from anciens francs to nouveau francs and one hundred ancien francs were required to have one nouveau franc.

Documental excepcional, ... información increíble

[@jocelynstclair3901]

Firstly the brickbat. I'm half-French and your pronunciation of French names and places ranged from atrocious to comical, Louis Exx Aye Vee? Louis the fourteenth please. And your pronunciation of German names and English words was every bit as bad. In fact this about the worst narration I have heard on any KZbin video that I have watched - it was dreadful. Now the bouquet - Thank you! I'm a political historian and this was a very interesting, very educational and very informative video that I really enjoyed and learnt a lot from watching it. A BIG well done!

[@IamHelenKeller]

Yes, I agree. The pronunciation of French and many English words was strange and amusing. I don't understand why the narrator also mispronounced a lot of English words . Sometimes he pronounced certain English words one way, and then he pronounced the same words differently later in the video. It's very bizarre. I think the narrator may be an artificial, computer generated voice. 😃

[@loonylinda]

yes the narrator was abysmal...

[@stanzanossi]

You should be happy that the pronunciation is so awful, it just goes to show that artificial intelligence will never take over the world, as so many people are afraid it will! 😅
