Mars 2024. Sortie au cinéma avec les EUROS PG4-5-6
One Life, de James Hawes, avec Anthony Hopkins – “Qui sauve une vie sauve l’humanité” Talmud
Dans le cadre des cours d’anglais, nous avons étudié la façon dont des anonymes ont permis, en changeant leur propre destin, de changer le destin du monde, pour le meilleur. Les élèves ont donc travaillé sur les figures de Rosa Parks, Malala Yusufzai, N’Tango Malhangu ou encore Bill Gates. La sortie du film One Life avec Anthony Hopkins nous a alors permis de découvrir la vie et l’action courageuse de Nicholas Winton, un jeune Britannique qui sauva la vie de centaines d’enfants Juifs d’Europe de l’Est dans les premiers mois de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale.
Tous en sont ressortis émus et touchés par le courage et l’humilité de cet homme qui ne chercha jamais à être célébré pour ce qu’il avait fait.
Voici leurs impressions:
“I like the fact that there are time travels between the past and the present, which brings dynamism because the general staging is, I find, a little flat and slow; apart from that the actors are remarkable and Anthony Hopkins plays a role more touching than ever. A must-see movie !” (Callista, PG5)
“I really appreciated seeing One Life for its poignant portrayal of the human experience and its thought-provoking exploration of life’s complexities. Moreover, thanks to its compelling characters and insightful narrative, I felt truly immersed in the hectic story, leaving a lasting impact on me.” (Johanna, PG5)
“I really appreciated seeing this movie because it was a match with our unit : “Changing one’s fate, Changing the World”. I think that going to the cinema is enriching for our general culture.” (Justine, PG6)
“I really enjoyed watching One Life because the film shows us what actually happened in the world during WWII, as it is inspired by a true story, which makes it 10 times more emotional.” (Emma, PG4) “I really enjoyed watching this movie because the director knew how to mix the historical and moving aspects of this man’s story well.” (Boris, PG6)
“The hero is humble, and reacts with humanity in front of Nazi atrocities. This movie is so important, because it’s part of the duty of remembrance, which allows us not to reproduce the errors of the past.” (Timothée, PG5)
