Maudlin drama that takes the bold step of giving us a heroine (Kristen Scott Thomas) who seems like she might be heroic in her quest to uncover the past, but then again, she might just be obsessed. Not every story needs to be told to everyone, not even the story of a young Jewish girl in WWII France on a mission to save her trapped little brother. Still, that story is a strong one and is delivered with brilliant color and high emotion — in contrast to the more-muted present-day story also told. (2011) — Matthew Lickona
