About Stimme des Herzens
In a small town in northern Germany at the turn of the century: The wealthy mayor's daughter Felizitas marries the much older owner of a trading house because her childhood friend and lover, an impoverished shipowner's son who has broken off his painting studies, withdraws from her. Although she soon realizes that her decision to marry is a mistake, she initially refuses to follow the voice of her heart until a scandal leads to the lovers' eventual happiness. A conventional melodrama, at least well acted.
Directed by Johannes Meyer, Stimme des Herzens leans on a strong ensemble — Marianne Hoppe, Ernst von Klipstein, Fritz Odemar — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1942.
