Movie Reviews of Miracle at Moreaux
Movie Review: A Hannukah and Christmas Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This film, set in World War II France, deals with a group of Christian students at a boarding school run by a Catholic nun. While they are preparing for a Christmas pageant that their parents will attend, three Jewish children appear at their school hungry and frightened. These three children need sanctuary from the Nazis. The nun, played by Loretta Swit, runs the school and must deal with the Nazis and the fear the Catholic children have of both the Jews and the Nazis finding out about their presence at the school.
This unwarranted fear of the Jewish children and the real threat from the Nazis are dealt with in this movie. And the film will end before you realize it. This is a small reminder of fear generated by the Nazis in World War II in the areas that they occupied. It teaches a good lesson in doing what is morally correct instead of what is expedient or in ones own self-interest. It is a good film for the whole family. And is a good viewing choice for the Christmas holiday.
Summary of Miracle at Moreaux
In the cold of December 1943, three Jewish children flee Nazi-occupied France and find refuge in a Catholic school run by Sister Gabrielle. At first, the nun?s young students are afraid to shelter the refugees from Nazi soldiers who are determined to capture them. But the students come to sympathize with the trio?s plight and finally even risk their own lives to protect them. Together, they devise a bold escape plan ? but will it carry them to freedom or cost them their lives?Similar DVD Movies
