Wasn't expecting this Jews in Occupied France WWII story at all. Mark Bomback adapted R.J.Palacio (it's vaguely linked to her 'Wonder' story). "Vive l'humanité!"
Ariella Glaser is good as the girl who has to be hidden in a barn; Orlando Schwerdt is her polio-affected protector.
Tom Newman's score is quite recognisable, Matthias Koenigswieser catches it nicely. Matt Chesse is the competent editor (another director-editor pairing; Christoper Robin (2018) and A Man Called Otto (2022) their latest collaborations, both also photographed by Koenigswieser.
Helen Mirren forgets her French accent pretty much immediately; Gillian Anderson is also in it. It was filmed in the Czech Republic
