Die große Liebe (The Great Love) is a German drama film of the National Socialist period, made by Rolf Hansen, starring Zarah Leander and Viktor Staal. It premiered in Berlin in 1942 and went on to become the most commercially successful film in the history of the Third Reich.

Synopsis

Le séduisant Oberlieutenant Paul Wendlandt est stationné comme pilote de chasse en Afrique du Nord. Il est rappelé à Berlin pour une journée en tant que rapporteur. Il y rencontre, sur la scène du théâtre de variété la „Scala“ la chanteuse populaire danoise Hanna Holberg. Il s'agit pour Paul d'un coup de foudre. Lorsqu'Hanna part avec des amis, à la fin du spectacle, Paul la suit et lui parle dans le métro berlinois. Après une soirée à l'appartement des amies d'Hanna, Paul la raccompagne jusque chez elle. C'est sur ce chemin que la chance a décidé de frapper : une alerte aérienne force Hannah à emmener Paul à se réfugier avec elle dans l'abri anti-aérien de son immeuble. Hanna tombe également amoureuse de Paul, mais, après une nuit passée ensemble, Paul est forcé de retourner au front.
