Similar Movie?


Does anyone know of a similar theatrical movie from the '80s or '90s? It was about a German airman. I think his plane went down over England and Ireland. And an older local woman developed a crush on him.

The English Patient 1996. But he wasn't a nazi, he was mistaken for one. And the woman wasn't older. If this is the movie that you are referring to. I hope it helps.

Courage consists not in hazarding without fear; but being resolutely minded in a just cause.

Thank you for the reply. The movie wasn't "The English Patient". The woman wasn't a nurse. And it took place in the countryside, not a monastery.

It sounds vaguely like Mrs Minniver, but that was from 1942. It might possibly be Elenya (1992) but it was a young girl who hid a German airman in a Welsh village, or Another Time, Another Place (1983) about a young Scottish housewife who has an affair with an Italian POW on her Scottish farm during WWII.
