Miracle of the White Stallions

This was a very entertaining movie, based on a true story. This makes a great gift to any horse lover.

My Grandfather Was Instrumental In This Rescue

My Grandfather, Lt. Merce, was the first soldier Colonel Herrmann made contact with on the road near Winterburg, where Herrmann explained the situation and showed him the stables. It was Lt. Merce who made the call up the chain to General Patton, and guarded the Stallions until Patton arrived.

All his life he was proud of his role in rescuing these fine Stallions.

Miracle of the White Stallions

I had taken my grandson to see the Lippizaner Stallions when they performed in our city, and while the narrator of the show did a good job of telling of their rescue by the American Army at the end of World War II, the film completed the story. It made a good experience for him even better. He particularly enjoyed the rescue of the mares. It was especially good for me to see some of the best actors of that time in Robert Taylor and Lili Palmer.

A Great Historical Story

Whether you care for horses or not, this gripping account of the rescue of the Lippizan dancing horses of Vienna will touch your heart. The unique breed ws comdemned to extinction during WW II, to be saved only by the cooperation of many good people. Two performances by these extraordinary animals, one in the historical setting of the Spanish Riding School in Vienna are well worth watching, as is the acting, photographt and listening to the music.

Pleasantly surprised

I don't normally like war movies but this was a whole new spin on WW2, in which compassion on both sides contributed to rescuing a whole breed of horses. It was very refreshing.
