Miracle at St. Anna chronicles the story of four black American soldiers who are members of the US Army as part of the all-black 92nd “Buffalo Soldier” Division stationed in Tuscany, Italy during World War II. They experience the tragedy and triumph of the war as they find themselves trapped behind enemy lines and separated from their unit after one of them risks his life to save an Italian boy.
Wow! I can’t believe this film was so long, but I was up to the very end. I would like to commend Director Spike Lee for finally showing us what some African American soldiers had to endure during the war. The film was very refreshing to me because it did not really show a lot of Lee’s views and opinions, but instead it showed what a group of African American soldiers had to do to survive during the war. I always wanted to know how African-American soldiers felt during the war while they were serving our country, and in this film Lee gives an idea of what they had to do during that time.
