Dorothy Rabinowitz Wall Street Journal Impressively devoid of sentimentality, grim in its facts, and moving in its portrait of the determined effort to rescue these young lives. Apr 2, 2020 Full Review Deborah Ross The Mail on Sunday (UK) The Windermere Children told this story as a drama, which is a good thing, as memories can't be allowed to fade, and it all helps, but it was serviceable rather than anything more memorable. Rated: 3/5 Feb 3, 2020 Full Review Rachel Cooke New Statesman Watching it, I came to regard its longueurs as necessary breathing spaces and its lapses into sentimentality as forgivable. Jan 30, 2020 Full Review Javier Ocaña El Pais (Spain) The film is better when viewed as a family film rather than a drama. [Full Review in Spanish] Aug 31, 2020 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix The Windermere Children is an emotionally powerful film (although by no means as harrowing and masterfully made as Schindler's List) that tells an important part of the Holocaust refugee story. Jul 16, 2020 Full Review Jeffrey Edalatpour KQED (San Francisco) Set 75 years in the past, The Windermere Children makes a brief nod to the contemporary persistence of xenophobia and anti-Semitism -- and the moral necessity of combatting such hatred.

Dave B I'm a bit biased as my father was one of "The Windermere Children". They captured the story brilliantly. I'm glad "The Boys" story will not be lost to history. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/24 Full Review Read all reviews
