| | Gypsy 08/21/2011 | | A quality movie with a lesson in ethical behavior that will resonate with young and old. |
| | Amother Mr. Smith goes to Washington | anonymous 08/01/2011 | | Mr. Hunter was so finely played by Mr. Klein that I use it as a motivator to approach the day with the practicality that Mr. Hunter approached his moral issue- where he failed and was redeemed by his honesty. The young adults of our society would gain moral direction from this film. Those that made it should be commended. |

| | Hard to watch but must see deep portrayal of the holocaust | ANON 06/02/2011 | | Historically important film that presents the kind of dichotomy many faced who chose to help Jews during the reign of Hitler -- constant fear, suspense, and the ability to stay focussed and on task in the face of immediate death should they be discovered or suspected. |
