Editorial Review:

Description:
Screen chronicle based on actual 1917 events outside Fatima, Portugal, where three shepherd children report visions of the Virgin Mary and confront anticlerical government oppression in the process.

Amazon.com:
The Miracle of Our Lady of Fatima tells the story--through an admittedly Hollywood prism--of one of the most beloved Catholic legends of the 20th century. Three young shepherd children in the remote Portuguese mountain town Fatima reported seeing a vision in 1917 of "a beautiful lady" who spoke to them of strife, war and peace and the love of Jesus. Soon the word spread, and throngs, teetering on mobs, gathered near the site for a glimpse of what they believed to be Mary, mother of Jesus. The children remained steadfast in their account, despite threats from the church and the government, and the final appearance of the lady, on Oct. 13, 1917, was accompanied by strange apparitions in the sky that have yet to be explained by science. The movie is well-made and -acted, especially by a radiant Susan Whitney, who plays the oldest child, Lúcia Abóbora dos Santos. The screenplay takes some liberties with the facts: the lovable jokester-sidekick character of Hugo is fictitious, and one wonders if perhaps a few of Our Lady's cautions about the multitude of evil things happening in 1917 Russia might have been heard through a Cold War filter. But the 1952 film is moving and is a reminder that big studios once routinely, and profitably, released religious-themed movies, to audiences who surely would appreciate some of the same today. --A.T.

I saw this movie as a child when it first came out, and have been looking for a copy of it for years. I even wrote to Ms Whitley, and other video vendors with no luck. Then in a last ditch effort, I tried Amazon.com, and it was truly a Miracle when I saw that it was in stock! Watching it again after 50 years was just like the first time. It is now a part of my DVD Library, and my heart, thanks to Amazon.com

- Fatima
Very enjoyable movie. Inspiring and touches the heart with its story and its implications. I saw the movie 30 years ago and wanted to have it in my collection.
A movie worth watching more than once.

- We are not alone!
Although this is a movie, we have to remember that this event really did happen in recent history. Jesus who is God really did live and die for us and sometimes has to send His mother to us to remind us about His love for us. This movie is a wonderful example of how great those encounters can be with Our Blessed Mother Mary.

- Holy Mother...
When I was growing up, this movie was run at school every year. In the good old days, when religion was still allowed in America, it used to show up on TV once in a while. Now, you have to own it, and it is worth owning. Bought it to help my 6 year old grand-daughter learn about this apparition of the Blessed Mother, how sometimes you have to fight for what you believe in including Jesus. Am a big believer in not dumbing down kids, so picked this over the animated version (The Day The Sun Danced) as the depiction of the Miracle of the Sun still - even after 48 years of seeing it - inspires awe. Whether you've got kids in your life who need a bit of help understanding miracles or just want to remember how Hollywood actually produced films that didn't mock God, put this in your cart!

- The Miracle of Our Lady of Fatima
Very Well made Docu-drama of the events that took place in Fatima
in 1917, with a few small Hollywood Highlights. (Gilbert Rolands Roll)
and the actual film setting, not on location but, in Spain, to add or
enhance the story. The impact of these messages and miracle as well
as everything that came after, is still to this day being observed
by the world over. unfortunately the church has, as in many cases, never
did enough to foward or foster the acknowledgement of these visions..
as in the case of revealing the famed mystery of the third secret.
which many as well as myself are not satisfied with johnpauls lame
explanation of it in 2000 at the beatification ceremony of jacinta and
Francisco
