This looks so weird. Waiting for anya film review. Waiting for ana maria. Waiting for anya movie reviews. I love oo, Miranda! D. Waiting for analytics. Lovely innocence … Noah Schnapp in Waiting for Anya. Photograph: Everett Collection Inc/Alamy Stock Photo There is something melodramatic and soapy about this glossy adaptation of Michael Morpurgo ’s second world war novel for children, the story of a French boy who helps to save Jewish children by smuggling them over the mountains into Spain. The problem, I think, comes from a fear of upsetting its target audience of older kids (the film has a 12A rating). So the tough bits are fuzzily done ? at arm’s length and hurried over ? making for an oddly flat unemotional watch. The accents don’t help: the actors all speaking English dialogue with ’Allo-’Allo accents (with Jean Reno thrown in for a bit of Gallic authenticity). The setting is occupied France. In the Pyrenees, teenager Jo (Stranger Things’ Noah Schnapp) discovers that mean old lady Widow Horcada ( Anjelica Huston) is in fact heroically hiding Jewish children on her pig farm. Huston does her best with a thin character, but even she struggles with the starchy dialogue: “Some people collect coins or stamps. We collect enemies of the Reich. ” Widow Horcada is also harbouring a Jewish man, Benjamin (Frederick Schmidt), who has become separated from his young daughter, Anya. Reno plays Jo’s grandfather, a salty first world war veteran who marches around the village wearing his army medals in proud defiance of the occupying force. The film is gorgeous to look at, all alpine meadow flowers and glorious green mountains. But the drama loses momentum pretty early on. When the Nazis grow suspicious of Widow Horcada, her resistance gang must decide: should they risk one last journey over the mountains? Schnapp, with his lovely innocent open face, carries it all so far. But the film pulls its punches, awkwardly rushing through difficult scenes, such as the one involving a sneering sadistic German officer performing a mock execution on a teenage boy with learning difficulties. Kids may feel they’re owed more honesty. What a soggy mess. ? Waiting for Anya is released in the UK on 21 February.

Waiting for anya imdb. | Nell Minow February 7, 2020 "Waiting for Anya" begins with a helpful explanation of what was going on in 1942, the first indicator that the target audience may be those who have not yet learned some basic history about WWII. It is not the last. The film is based on a popular YA book by Michael Morpurgo, author of The War Horse, and it is?inspired by French villagers who rescued Jewish children from the Nazis by smuggling them over the mountains into Spain. Despite the obvious sincerity of the filmmakers, the best efforts of Jean Reno and Anjelica Huston, and some lovely scenery, it remains overly didactic, talking down to even the middle school audience it is aimed at. Advertisement An old man ( Jean-François Balmer) serves as off-screen narrator, describing his life as a young shepherd in occupied France. In 1942 the Nazis had not yet reached the southern part of the country, bordering on Spain, so much of life continued as usual. But the war had already touched the village. A boy named?Jo ("Stranger Things'" Noah Schnapp) has a lot of new responsibilities because his father left to fight for France?and is now in a German POW camp. Jo's grandfather (Reno) has warned him to stay awake while watching the sheep, but -- METAPHOR ALERT-- Jo dozes off, only to be awakened by a bear approaching the flock. Jo runs to tell the village, and a group of men go after the bear and kill it, toasting Jo for sounding the alarm. But Jo's grandfather suggests that he should not have left the sheep. And, in the film's best scene, the incident is reframed the next day when Jo goes into the woods?looking for his sheepdog and?sees a stranger who tells him that the bear was a mother trying to protect her now-orphaned cub. Now, he says, either he or Jo will have to take responsibility for the cub. The stranger takes the cub with him without telling Jo his name. The man, Jo will eventually discover, is Benjamin ( Frederick Schmidt) a Jew hiding out with his mother-in-law (Huston), a grumpy widow who lives on a remote farm. He is waiting there in hopes that his daughter Anya will find him there. He has not seen her since he desperately thrust her into a bus as he was escaping a Nazi transport to a concentration camp. While he waits, he is helping other Jewish children escape over the mountain. Jo promises to help, too. And then, the Nazis arrive and take over the town, searching everywhere for anyone who may be hiding anything. One German officer ( Thomas Kretschmann) is less harsh, especially after his own daughter is killed in Berlin by?an Allied bombing raid. He tries to be kind to Jo and his developmentally disabled friend Hubert (Declan Cole), taking them into the mountains to look for eagles, to make the war seem far away. But tensions are high and it is imperative to get the remaining children out of harm's way before they are discovered. As the era of the Holocaust moves beyond the time of living memory, the struggle to understand and communicate what happened becomes even more difficult. That is even more complicated when it comes to explaining the history to young people in a manner that is accessible enough for them to understand?and honest enough to be meaningful. A much better way to begin to communicate one of the most unthinkable horrors of the 20th century and remind us that civilized people can be responsible for atrocities is to show them films like "Paperclips, " "The Number on Great-Grandpa's Arm, " or "The Diary of Anne Frank. " Those already familiar with the basics of history?may find it adds nothing new to see this film’s?opening moments with terrified Jews wearing yellow stars herded into trains, a baby crying, a woman screaming, and?a sad violin on the soundtrack.?For middle schoolers, who may never have?been exposed to these images, the film?may be educational about such?horrors.?But “Waiting for Anya”?remains thin, sugary, and over-simplified.

Waiting for anyone interested. Johnny ? flynn ?. Anjelica Huston, Jean Reno and Noah Schnapp of 'Stranger Things' appear in Ben Cookson's World War II-set thriller based on a YA novel by 'War Horse' author Michael Morpurgo. Holocaust-themed films geared to younger audiences inevitably have a certain defanged quality. It's the inevitable trade-off for softening the horrors attendant to the subject matter, and there's something to be said for making the historical period more accessible to viewers who may not be familiar with it. Unfortunately, the approach can also result in blandness, which is the main problem afflicting Ben Cookson's screen adaptation of British author Michael Morpurgo's 1990 children's book. Despite its laudable intentions, Waiting for Anya proves less impactful than it should be. The film certainly doesn't have the thematic weight of War Horse, another film (and acclaimed stage play) based on a war-themed book by Morpurgo that was geared to young readers. There's certainly an arresting story at the pic's center. Set in 1942 in the French Pyrenees, it concerns Jo (Noah Schnapp, displaying the same strong presence as he does in Netflix's Stranger Things), a teenage shepherd who spends much of his time in the mountains attending to his grandfather Henri's (Jean Reno) sheep. One day, after narrowly avoiding a possibly fatal encounter with a bear, Jo runs into the mysterious Benjamin (Frederick Schmidt). It turns out that Benjamin, a Jew, had escaped with his young daughter Anya from a train bound for a concentration camp, after which they were unfortunately separated. Now, he hides in the woods, helping to smuggle Jewish children to safety in Spain with the help of his elderly widowed mother-in-law Horcada (Angelica Huston) and desperately hoping to be reunited with Anya. Although the area in southern France is technically not under Nazi occupation, there are many of them around and they are obviously up to no good. Or at least one of them isn't, since we're presented with one very bad Nazi in the form of a sneering, vicious lieutenant (Tomas Lemarquis) and one pretty good Nazi in the form of a kindly corporal (Thomas Kretschmann) who befriends Jo and talks longingly of returning home to his wife and daughters after the war. The contrast between the two men seems too simplistically drawn. Yes, there were some Nazis who were no doubt decent men, but you get the feeling here that the movie simply wanted to be fair and balanced. Wanting to help Benjamin and Horcada in their noble efforts, Jo gets involved despite the dangers. His contribution consists largely of making trips to the village to procure groceries and medicine for the children being hidden in Horcada's barn, and ironically is helped at one point by the corporal who offers to carry the heavy bag. Meanwhile, the lieutenant becomes increasingly suspicious of the villagers' activities. The frequent presence of a mentally impaired classmate of Jo's who antagonizes the Nazis only adds to the danger of the situation. Director/co-screenwriter Cookson ( Almost Married) proves unable to wrest much sustained tension from the scenario, indulging in too many subplots and minor characters and letting the pacing lag. Despite the fine efforts of the ensemble that includes such solid veterans as Huston (her accent, however, proves distracting), Reno and particularly Kretschmann, who brings real shadings to his role as the conflicted colonel, the film never overcomes its air of staidness. Waiting for Anya boasts handsome visuals, with cinematographer Gerry Vasbenter wasting no opportunities to employ drones to capture the beauty of its setting (the pic was shot on location in the Pyrenees). But even that quality ironically works against it; the aerial shots of the mountain scenery look so gorgeous you keep waiting for Julie Andrews to appear, twirling and singing "The Sound of Music. " Presumably, that's not the effect the filmmakers were hoping for.

NOW I REMEMBER! SHE WAS THE GIRL IN SPLIT. Waiting for anya full movie. This is one of the best trailers that Ive ever seen. WAITING FOR ANYA is set in the south of France during World War II. Jo is a teenage shepherd boy who discovers a secret in the woods surrounding where he tends his family’s sheep. As he wanders the forest, Jo becomes friends with Benjamin and his mother, who are smuggling Jewish children across the border to Spain. Benjamin smuggled his little daughter, Anya, onto a bus as trains were loaded with Jews. He told Anya to meet him at her grandmother’s house. While they wait for Anya to join them, Jo’s household develops a clever plan to disguise the children from German soldiers. WAITING FOR ANYA is a wonderful period piece set in majestic mountain beauty. Christian themes and symbols are plentiful, as well as loyalty, sacrifice and friendship. For example, the shepherd boy is friends with a special needs boy. Several scenes are set in church, including a concert where the organist plays some Christian music by Bach. WAITING FOR ANYA is a captivating, gripping, inspiring movie for older children and adults. Some violent scenes are too scary for younger children. Content: (CCC, BBB, ACACAC, L, VV, AA, D, M): Dominant Worldview and Other Worldview Content/Elements: Very strong Christian, biblical, moral worldview as people, including a teenage shepherd boy and his family, hide and rescue Jewish children from the German National Socialist army during World War II, loyalty and friendship are extolled, several scenes are set inside the local church, the children in the town host a concert in the church where the organist plays some Christian music by Bach, and the Bible is quoted, especially the verse “I am the good Shepherd” (John 10:11), plus the movie has a very strong message against the totalitarian evils of Hitler’s National Socialist regime during World War II Foul Language: Jo’s mother calls the Nazis “bastards” while at the dinner table Violence: Brief strong and light violence includes men grab guns to go hunt a bear that’s attacked a family’s flock of sheep, the bear shown dead in the village square with blood dripping off it, father smacks teenage son across the face, a boy is shot and killed Sex: No sexual content Nudity: No nudity but a father’s scarred back is shown to portray what he suffered in a work camp Alcohol Use: Wine is consumed several times in the town square and at dinner, and a father consumes too much wine when he finally returns from a work camp Smoking and/or Drug Use and Abuse: German soldiers are shown smoking several times, and teenage boy lights a cigarette for a soldier in one scene; and, Miscellaneous Immorality: Family’s grandfather lies when he turns in only one of his guns when German soldiers confiscate weapons, and there are certain “lies of necessity” similar to Rahab lying about the Jewish spies in Jericho. Set in the south France during WWII, WAITING FOR ANYA, portrays young Jo (Noah Schnapp), a teenage shepherd boy who discovers a secret in the woods surrounding the flocks where he herds the family’s sheep. In this coming of age story, Jo is initially frightened by a bear attack on the sheep. Jo enlists the help of the townsfolk, who rush into the forest to dispatch the bear. The men successfully kill the bear and display the dead bear while the townspeople celebrate by drinking some wine. Meanwhile, Jo’s sheepdog is nowhere to be found, so he goes into the forest looking for his dog. As he spots his dog, he sees a man and starts talking with him. The man reveals to Jo that the bear was a mother bear protecting her cub. He pours some milk on a rock, and the baby cub comes up to him to drink it. The man swears Jo to secrecy about his presence in the forest. Jo follows the man, who takes the cub to a remote farmhouse owned by the widow Horcada (Anjelica Huston). Weeks later, Jo returns to the farmhouse with a bottle of sheep milk with the hope of seeing the bear cub. He sneaks into the barn to look for the bear, but the bear is gone. Instead, he discovers a little girl. Subsequently, he develops a friendship with the man, Benjamin (Frederick Schmidt), and Horcada. Jo learns they are smuggling Jewish children across the border to Spain. Jo becomes Horcada’s “grocery boy”, and Benjamin and Horcada swear Jo to secrecy about their clandestine operation. Jo also learns that Benjamin had smuggled his little daughter, Anya, onto a bus when some trains were being loaded with Jews. He tells Anya to meet him at Grandmother, Horcada’s house. Now, Benjamin is waiting for Anya before he moves the Jewish children into Spain. Meanwhile, German soldiers move into Jo’s little village to occupy it. A special needs boy, Hubert (Declan Cole), and Jo are befriended by the German Korporal (Thomas Kretschmann) who promises to take them bird watching and allow them to watch the birds with his binoculars. Jo’s grandfather, Henri (Jean Reno), hides one of his rifles in the town cemetery. Jo is apprehensive at first but eventually hikes into the mountain with the Korporal. However, the German Leutnant (Tómas Lemarquis), the Korporal’s superior, is keeping an eye on young Jo. Since the German soldiers are patrolling the border, it’s impossible for Benjamin to take the children into Spain. As the German’s squeeze closer to the Horcada’s farmhouse, Benjamin and children move their hiding place to a remote cave that belongs to Joe’s grandfather, Henri. Jo discovers from a letter hidden by his mother that his father is in a prison camp for resisting the Germans. In time, Henri and Horcada get married. Miraculously, Jo’s father (Gilles Marini) is released from prison camp and returns home, to the delight of his family. However, the deprivation leads him to drink too much, and he becomes angry with Jo for becoming “friends” with the German Korporal. When Grandpa Henri vouches for Jo’s quiet resistance, Papa joins the effort to help smuggle the children. Jo’s household develops a clever plan to disguise the Jewish children even while they’re still waiting for Anya. WAITING FOR ANYA is an inspiring period piece akin to THE SOUND OF MUSIC in its depiction of the majestic, European mountain beauty during the Nazi regime. However, it’s more somber and less musical as well as being a coming of age story of a young teenage boy. Jo and his special needs friend, Hubert, teach viewers about friendship. Loyalty and sacrifice are paramount themes while each character has their own personal struggles to overcome. Christian themes and symbols are plentiful in WAITING FOR ANYA. For example, the children of the town host a concert in the church. The church organist plays “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring” by Bach. The Nazi Korporal prays in the church when personal tragedy strikes his family, and it leads him to wonder about the reasons for the war. Also, the biblical verse “I am the good Shepherd” from John 10:11 plays an important part in the story. There are a few drawbacks in WAITING FOR ANYA. For example, some scenes, such as an image of the dead bear dripping blood and a scene where a boy is shot and killed are too scary and intense for younger children. At times, the dialogue is difficult to follow because of the choice to use English with an accent. Otherwise, however, WAITING FOR ANYA is a captivating, gripping, inspiring movie for older children and adults. WAITING FOR ANYA had a small, limited release earlier this year and is now available on the Internet through places like Amazon and iTunes.
