    Excellent,

    I had seen this movie before but I wanted my own copy. Best Buy had this at a discount when I purchased. BUT, it was supposed to have a Digital Copy included. I tried to use the Code and it had expired. So no digital copy. Still a good movie.

    Great movie!

    Had to buy this for a writing class to watch. It was a great movie and loved it. The only complaint I have is when BB shipped it to me the plastic hold was broke and I was worried the blu Ray was broke too but it wasn’t thankfully.

    The tyranny of fascism on common people

    This is a touching and tender movie about people tying to remain humane in the worst possible conditions: in World War II fascist Germany. The movie displays that humanity without being sentimental. It's a movie well worth seeing.

    Wonderful Sleeper Movie

    I loved this movie. A terrific story that kept every moment of the plot moving along and in what seemed like just moments the movie was over. Both heart warming and heart wrenching at once.

    Enjoyable

    Story of a young girl being handed off to a husband and wife to bring up during war time. The movie is done quite well and you can’t help but love the girl Liesl.
