Set during WWI, Der Engel Mit der Posaune is the melancholy tale of a woman (Paula Wesseley) who bows to family pressure and marries a man she does not love. In consequence, her actual sweetheart commits suicide. The woman elects to join him in death years later when the Gestapo decides to persecute her because of her Jewish forbears. Newsreel footage from both World Wars helps to inflate the film's running time to 135 minutes. An English-language version of Der Engel mit der Posaune, titled Angel With the Trumpet, was filmed in 1948 with Eileen Herlie in the lead. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
