Summary: 4 Stars
This was a very captivating movie.
A Danish family becomes involved in helping Jews. The son (Henrik) is in the resistance and keeps it a secret from his family, sure they would forbid him to continue because of the danger.
The father, a doctor, decides he must do what he can to help the Jews when he hears of the news of the Germans coming to route out and kill Jews. He hides a family (friends of theirs) in the attic.
There are many tense and action-packed scenes. The acting is great.
I wish the people didn't feel they had to lie to save the Jews, though. (Corrie Ten Boom is a good example of someone who hid Jews and told the truth, being put in a concentration camp herself. What strong belief that is.)
There were also a couple of kisses (if you worry about that kind of thing), but nothing more than that.
Overall I give this movie a solid thumbs up and it is a striking example of the bravery of many people during the war.

Summary: 4 Stars
: The movie "Miracle at Midnight", directed by Ken Cameron, is about one family's effort to save Jews in Denmark. The father of this family, Dr. Karl Koster, works at the local hospital. When he hears his Jewish friends are going to be deported by the Nazis, he starts hiding them in the hospital. Meanwhile, his son, Henrik Koster, a university student, joins the local resistance. At home, Karl and his family hide the local Rabbi, Ben Abrams, and his family. Eventually Karl is able to secretly send the Jews, hiding in the hospital, into Switzerland on fishing boats. Karl and his family have to flee to Switzerland because the Nazis found out what he was doing, but Mrs. Koster was taken by the Nazis.It is very exciting and is extremely tense in several scenes. Which literally makes you sit on the edge of your seat. The movie moves along at a good pace and is only an hour and a half. The plot is quite interesting.
Movie Review: Nice movie.

It is not a great movie but it was a nice movie. It was nice to see a whole town that helped the Jews get out of in Denmark. A true story about how the town of Christians helped 7500 Jews escaped in a two day period. It as also nice to see a SS man not be evil.Movie Review: Miracle at Midnight

I purchased this video because my husband is Danish and remembers when the Nazi invaded Denmark. It was done very nice. But I think it was a little sugarcoated. I know Disney produced it and always enjoys their products. Thank you. Jean
