Adultly conceived and skillfully executed, [Miracle in Harlem] is embellished with solid structure, intelligent dialogue, plausible plot, sensible acting and fortified by excellent direction.

Not to be overlooked is the fact that a couple of musical items have been neatly dovetailed into the yarn without getting into the way of the plot development.

It is a shrewd blending of drama, religious overtones, crime, romance, music and comedy.
