Sir Anthony Hopkins landed a Hollywood film role playing a man who saved the lives of hundreds of children

One Life (2023) ‧ War/Drama. The story of British humanitarian Sir Nicholas Winton, who helped save hundreds of Central European children from the Nazis on the eve of World War II. Sir Nicholas Winton saved 669 children, who were mostly Jewish, from Czechoslovakia before World War Two broke out in 1939.

Sir Anthony Hopkins will appear as Sir Nicholas Winton in an upcoming biographical film called One Life.

Sir Anthony Hopkins tells the story of 'hero' Sir Nicholas Winton in One Life. The Welsh acting legend plays a man who saved 669 Jewish children before the Second World War. Nicholas Winton from London was a stockbroker and humanitarian who died at the age of 106 in July 2015.

He was known for organising the rescue of 669 Czech children from Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia during the nine months before the war broke out in 1939. The story became known to the public in 1988 when it was featured on That’s Life!, the BBC magazine programme. In 2003, he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II for Services to Humanity for this work.

In the nine months leading up to the outbreak of World War Two, 669 children who were mostly Jewish, were transported from Czechoslovakia to Britain and other countries. This was due to the foresight and work of a small group of people organised by 29-year-old stockbroker Nicholas Winton.

He made sure that those who were displaced found a new home, but he was haunted by the thought of those he was unable to save and as a result, he never spoke of the rescue. Around 50 years later, however, his work came to light when his wife, Grete Winton, found an old scrapbook which detailed everything her husband had done, including the names of the children he had saved.

As the news of his heroism broke out, Sir Nicholas was invited to appear on That's Life!. During the show, presenter Esther Rantzen asked the studio audience if "anyone here tonight owes their life to Nicholas Winton?" and in turn, some members of the audience, who sat next to Nicholas, began to stand.

The stockbroker was reunited with some of the Jewish children he had saved. He was known as "Britain's Schindler" coined after Oskar Schindler who was a German industrialist who saved thousands of Jews he had employed at his factories during the Holocaust.

The remarkable story is now being turned into a Hollywood film and stars Port Talbot-born actor, Sir Anthony Hopkins, as Sir Nicholas Winton.

One Life, which has been adapted from a 2014 book written by Sir Nicholas's daughter Barbara, entitled If It's Not Impossible. The Life of Sir Nicholas Winton will be a biographical film and will focus on Sir Nicholas and the rescue operation. The film will be premiered at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival in September.

Sir Anthony Hopkins plays the older version of Sir Nicholas Winton, while Johnny Flynn plays the younger version. The film also stars Helena Bonham Carter, Romola Garai and fellow Welsh actor and Hopkins' The Two Popes co-star, Jonathan Pryce. Directed by James Hawes.

Among the many wonderful Chanukah books are those which have won awards not just in the Jewish community but as great books overall. Eric A. Kimmel's "Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins" (1989) was a Caldecott Honor Book in 1990, and for good reason! In print for over a quarter of a century, this fantastic tale of magical creatures, bravery and cleverness is not for the faint of heart. But the humour and guile of the folk hero Hershel, coupled with the gorgeously magical illustrations of Trina Schart Hyman, are just the thing for fearless kids who love a story of defeating naughty monsters. A true classic holiday folktale with a fantasy twist! ⚫ ⚫ ⚫ #noodlenutsclassickidlit #jewishnoodlenuts #noodlenutschanukah #hershelandthehanukkahgoblins #erickimmel #ericakimmel #trinascharthyman #jewishfolklore #caldecotthonor #caldecotthonorbook #jewishkids #jewishparents #jewishmother #jewishmysticism #jewishchildren #hanukkah #chanukah #folktale #folklore #jewishculture https://www.instagram.com/p/B6jHSgDHTGg/?igshid=6qf8u2ylfub3

Rabbi Jen and Jason Talk About Creating A Ritual for Surrogacy - A Jewish Baby Story

Jen and Jason welcomed two Jewish children - twins (a boy and a girl) into their family through a surrogate pregnancy. They knew they would do a bris and a baby naming, but wanted something creative and new to mark the event. Finding that private, special kernel made it all the more special.

We all know how I love clever wordplay! Well, tomorrow night marks the start of Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. It's the most solemn and arguably the most important day of the Jewish Year, when we fast, reflect upon the last year and mistakes we've made or people we've hurt, and ask forgiveness to begin anew for the year to come. "Talia and the Very YUM Kippur" (2015) is a fabulous book for explaining this day to kids. Author Linda Elovitz Marshall takes a key misunderstanding--that of the difference between break[ing]-fast and breakfast--and plays with it, as young Talia helps her grandmother prepare for the holiday, and slowly learns that joy is not only about celebration, but also about meaningful reconnection with those we love. A gentle, lovely introduction for ANY child, with adorable pictures by Francesca Assirelli, to an important Jewish holy day. ⚫ ⚫ #noodlenutskidsbooks #bookstagraminthe6ix #LokshenNuts #JewishNoodlenuts #TaliaandTheVeryYumKippur #lindaelovitzmarshall #francescaassirelli #karben #karbenpublishing #yomtov #yomkippur #breakingthefast #gmarchatimatova #highholidays #jewishhighholidays #jewishholidays #jewishkids #jewishchildren #jewishbooks #jewishpicturebooks #jewishkidsbooks #jewishchildrensbooks #intergenerational #intergenerationalstories #grandparentsandgrandkids #diversebooksforkids #weneeddiversebooks #ReadWithRiver_food https://www.instagram.com/p/B3VNvlLnAPS/?igshid=uqsew8mfve8e

Sunday evening marks the beginning of Sukkot, one of the three most significant holidays of the Jewish religious year, and a huge part of celebrating is the construction and use of a sukkah. A sukkah is a temporary shelter with a roof open to the night sky that is meant to recall the shelters that the Israelites built in the desert during their exodus. Often decorated with seasonal fruits and vegetables and colourful artwork, it's a wonderful autumn tradition. 🍎🍏🍎 "Tamar's Sukkah" (1988) by Ellie Gellman is a beautiful, simple book with a retro feel, about a little girl decorating her family's sukkah with the help of friends from the neighbourhood. Originally illustrated by Shauna Mooney Kawasaki, and reissued in 2015 with updated artwork by Katherine Janus Kahn, it's a perfect introduction for any young child to this fall holiday. ⚫ ⚫ ⚫ #noodlenutsclassickidlit #noodlenutskidsbooks #LokshenNuts #JewishNoodlenuts #tamarssukkah #elliegellman #shaunamooneykawasaki #katherinejanuskahn #karben #karbenpublishing #pjlibrary #sukkot #sukkoth #sukkah #sukkahparty #sukkahdecor #highholidays #jewishholiday #jewishholidays #jewish #jewishchildren #jewishkids #jewishbooks #jewishpreschoolbooks #jewishpreschoolideas #jewishlearning #jewishpreschool #judaismforkids #cultureforkids #jewishchildrensbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/B3h1Ln4njJ6/?igshid=z549ba4u8jsq

Sundown this evening marks the start of Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement, probably the most important day of the Jewish Year, when we fast, reflect on our transgressions, and ask forgiveness of those we have wronged in the last year. The concept of atonement and apology is such an important one to any society, and something we often struggle to explain to kids. One of the most beautiful books I've seen on the subject is Jacqueline Jules's "The Hardest Word: A Yom Kippur Story" (2000). It tells the tale of the Ziz, a beautiful but clumsy mythical bird, who is sent by G-d on a quest to learn "the hardest word"...and learns that sometimes the most difficult thing to say isn't the biggest or most complicated, but the one that requires that we humble ourselves and take responsibility. The book is beautifully illustrated in colourful detail by Katherine Janus Kahn; and while G-d is mentioned in the story it isn't so much a "religious story" as a lovely fable, accessible to almost anyone. ✨✨✨ Noodlenuts would like to wish any of our followers who celebrate Yom Kippur a safe and healthy fast and a wonderful New Year.

Action rhymes and fingerplays are such a fun way to develop early literacy and motor skills with toddlers! This week, the Read With River Book Club is focused on ACTION; and since we're also in the middle of the Jewish High Holidays, I thought it would be a great time to pull Jacqueline Jules's "Clap and Count! Action Rhymes for the Jewish Year"(2000) off my bookshelf to share. This lovely, colourful book, illustrated by Sally Springer, has clapping games, action rhymes and more, all based on Jewish holidays and traditions, and all with simple visual instructions for parents.
