The Courageous Heart of Irena Sendler was a very compelling tale of a woman’s attempt to save many Jewish children from the concentration camps

The Courageous Heart Of Irena Sendler, Months after my dad taped this Hallmark Hall of Fame movie on DVD disc, I finally got to watch The Courageous Heart of Irena Sendler with an aunt of mine today. This based on a true story account taking place during World War II of a young Polish woman’s saving of thousands of Jewish children from the Gestapo is one of the most touching of such films I’ve yet seen. Anna Paquin brings warmth and compelling gravity to the title role and I’m not ashamed to admit that when Irena was being tortured by the Nazis, I nearly cried. In fact, I wish she had also gotten an Emmy nomination and not just Marcia Gay Harden as her mother, Janina Sendler, compelling as she was also. Also compelling were a couple of the children showcased: Sergei Novik-Marchenko as Jasio and Elea Hofland as Anna. And while Goran Visnjic as Stefan didn’t have much time in his role, he still made a little impression in how his character loved Irena so when it was revealed in the end text that the two were eventually married, I was touched to know that he was indeed real! And then finding out Ms. Sendler was nominated for a Nobel prize while her real-life visual was shown made me so glad this movie was made after getting recognition when she eventually got found out by some high school students before her death in 2008.  I highly recommend you watch The Courageous Heart of Irena Sendler.
