From the world of Wonder, which sparked a movement to "choose kind," comes the inspirational next chapter: White Bird. Struggling to fit in at his new school after being expelled for his treatment of Auggie Pullman, Julian (Bryce Gheisar) is visited by his grandmother (Helen Mirren) and is transformed by the compassionate and heroic story of her attempts to escape Nazi-occupied France during WWII. From the director of Finding Neverland, White Bird reminds us to be brave and choose kind.

Critics Consensus: Packaging difficult subject matter into a digestible morality tale, White Bird is a soft-pedaled but ultimately moving drama fit for the whole family.

Reviews

The Post NZ

James Croot

With its message of how we must “use the light within ourselves to stop the injustices of today”, White Bird perhaps has even greater resonance now than it might have done back when it was first supposed to debut in September 2022.

Given the Holocaust theme, one wouldn't expect "White Bird" to be an engaging movie for children. It succeeds absolutely in modeling human kindness.

Helen Mirren as Grandmother Sara, carries her role well as she tells the story, while Ariella Glaser as the young Sara, does just as well in a demanding role.

A very serviceable telling of a story that we've seen one way or another many times before.

White Bird might get some comparisons to The Diary of Anne Frank, but White Bird is a fictional story that won't be considered a classic. This dramatic film has good performances from the principal cast, despite the movie's treacly tone and drab dialogue.
