One Life (2023)
One Life tells the story of Nicholas Winton, a young London broker who, on the brink of World War II, helped rescue as many Jewish children as possible from the Nazis. Fifty years later, Winton is haunted by the fate of the children he wasn’t able to save. It’s not until a TV show reintroduces him to some of those he helped rescue that he finally begins to come to terms with the guilt and grief he carried.
Oscar winner Anthony Hopkins (The Silence of the Lambs) and Critics’ Choice nominee Johnny Flynn (The Lovers) co-star as the older and younger Winton. One Life also stars Emmy winner Helena Bonham Carter (The Crown, Harry Potter franchise), Oscar nominees Lena Olin (Alias, Hunters) and Jonathan Pryce (The Crown), Golden Globe nominee Romola Garai (Vigil), and Tony winner Alex Sharp (3 Body Problem).
Directed by BAFTA nominee James Hawes (Snowpiercer, Black Mirror),One Life has a 90% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The Guardian calls it “an extraordinary true story,” adding: “You’d need a heart of stone not to be touched by this.”
