‘White Bird’ Review: Helen Mirren And Superb Young Cast Help Make This Exceptional And Timely WWII Holocaust Teen Story A Must-See
A review of 'White Bird' which is from the author of 'Wonder' and promotes the idea of kindness even in the darkest of times. Helen Mirren & Cast great.
Visually Forster and his excellent cinematographer Mattias Konigswieser have created some striking sequences, notably in the barn as Sara and Julian sit in the old truck there as they seemingly drive thru various cinematic images projected in front of them, a trip thru New York City the most dazzling. The Production Design from Jennifer Williams also hits the mark perfectly, and veteran composer Thomas Newman not only contributes another lilting score, but also a haunting song (with lyrics by Palacio) sung by the young stars, as well as over the end credits. Cast: Helen Mirren, Ariella Glaser, Orlando Schwerdt, Bryce Gheisar, Gillian Anderson, Jo Stone-Fewings, Olivia Ross, Ishai Golan, Jem Matthews, Patsy Ferran, Stuart McQuarrie.
