Summary: Outstanding; Timeless themes; Uplifting while facing issues square on
Comment: I saw this marvelous movie in the theater in Houston when it was first released.

Jeannette Clift George and the rest of the cast did an outstanding job portraying this true, compelling story. Ms. George has since become an accomplished playwright and operates Grace Theater in Houston, TX.

Readers of the book know from the outset Corrie Ten Boom survived to help write the book but it's such an intriguing journey to get there. The authors include numerous jewels along the way, stories that stick with the reader long after the book is back on the shelf: the train ticket held by her father until the perfect time, the test of faith by not lying about family hiding under the kitchen table, the fleas having a purpose, the heartbreak of the love of her life marrying someone else, rebuilding the radio while in prison, the astounding respect and love for her father and sister while incarcerated.

Each chapter utilizes powerful imagery to flesh out an application of Eternal Truth ready for internalizing.

The lessons may be applied to every day life since these were not merely `characters' but most obviously real people, with extreme trials to maneuver in life and in death. Ordinary becomes extraordinary, utilizing compelling subject matter with a page turning writing style exhibiting firm faith in the Lord. It's one of those classics that affords readers immediate application to their own circumstances since they can identify with her and her family on so many levels.

Finally a work like this inspires and uplifts. I found myself continually discovering the answer (Grace) on almost every page to such questions as "Why did God let this happen?" and "How did she do it?". The Hiding Place is a classic I enjoy re-reading every few years. I'm amazed at the fresh perspective I have each time. It's timeless.

One of my favorite poetic verses from Corrie Ten Boom, who quoted it often (it was by Grant Colfax Tullar), is the following:
"My life is but a weaving betwixt my God and me;
I do not choose the colors He worketh steadily.
Oft times He weaveth sorrow, and I in foolish pride
Forget He sees the upper, and I the underside.
Not till the loom is silent and the shuttles cease to fly
Will God unfold the pattern and explain the reason why.
For the dark threads are as needful in the Weaver's skillful hand
As the threads of gold and silver in the pattern He has planned."

Summary: Story makes the movie
Comment: Just watched it again with my family. Of course, the 15 year old thought is was "interesting" but had a hard time sitting through it. The story is great and it makes you think about how easily things can change. Are we ready to live for Christ even when persecuted as Corrie Ten Boom was?

Summary: A Classic
Comment: This is a classic movie; I remember seeing it when it was first released. I wanted my daughter to see it after reading Anne Frank's diary.

Summary: Hiding Place Review
Comment: I remember seeing this at the movies when it first came out in the 70s. I hadn't seen it since that time but I remembered a couple of scenes that stuck with me since then. Faith is all enduring.

Summary: Human Spirit is strong
Comment: Out of all the recommended christian programing this is one of the best. It was well acted and not phony like most christian shows. This did not have graphic violence. I highly recommend this program for all viewers not just christians.
