It's You I Have Loved (German: Dich hab ich geliebt) is a 1929 German drama film directed by Rudolf Walther-Fein and starring Mady Christians, Walter Jankuhn, and Hans Stüwe. It is considered the first full sound film to be made in Germany (following part-sound films which had been released earlier in the year).[1] When it was released in the United States, the film's plot was compared to that of The Jazz Singer.[2] It is also known as Because I Loved You.
