Editorial Reviews

Spike Lee's World War II film Miracle at St. Anna begins in 1983 with Hector Negron, a veteran of that war, unexpectedly shooting a customer dead. Police discover that the suspect, a quiet postal worker, kept a statue head worth millions of dollars in his apartment. An eager young reporter (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) interviews Negron in his cell about the mysterious artifact. While serving in the all-minority 92nd "Buffalo Soldier" Division, Negron and three comrades managed to sneak deep into enemy territory in Italy. One of the men, Sam Train (Omar Benson Miller), picked the head up while they were serving in Florence and believes it brings him good luck. Negron (Laz Alonso), Train, and Bishop Cummings (Michael Ealy), along with their sergeant, Aubrey Stamps (Derek Luke), take refuge in the Italian village of St. Anna, harbored by locals who are resisting the Nazis -- who themselves surround the area. Train also protects an injured Italian boy he discovers while investigating a seemingly abandoned dwelling. Eventually, the soldiers make contact with their superiors, and are ordered to capture a German so that he may be interrogated about an upcoming attack. Lee adapted Miracle at St. Anna from a novel by James McBride, who also penned the screenplay. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide All Movie Guide

March 30, 2009: It was one of a few films I have seen that actually followed the plot as it is writen in the book. A little long for viewing but they managed to do it tastefully and the actors and plot were exceptional. The visualization was excellent and the scenery fantastic. I bought two copies of the movie and cherish them and they shall remain a favorite of mine for years to come. It is on par with A Soldiers Story. both portray the African American soldier as it truly was back then. My father served in the army and the movie only served to confirm the facts of life in the Amry for the black man in World War II. We need more of these films to show our children and let them know we are proud to be American and very much participate in protecting the freedoms we so readily enjoy.
