Miracle in Milan - Das Wunder von Mailand - Miracolo a Milano (1951) (Rating 8,9) (OmeU) DVD5538

The great humanist of celluloid tells a fantastic fairy tale. On the outset it’s a very simple story of the good poor against the evil rich, unashamedly optimistic and naive until the end (although the story gets some extra flavours when the poor turn out to be as greedy as the rich). Great storytelling nevertheless, and a very beautiful film, both visually and emotionally.
