Speech
Oppenheimer: This is in honor of the kindertransport survivors who
have inspired us with their honesty, and their eloquence, and their
humanity, and for their parents who loved them so much, they had
the courage to send them away. The film is in memory of my mother,
who is one of the 10,000 children and my grandparents whom she never
saw again. We'd like to thank everybody at Warner Brothers for their
extraordinarily good faith, particularly Barry Meyer, Jerry Levin,
and Bruce Rosenblum, as well as Dan Felman, and I'd like to thank
my family, my friends, my colleagues, and my partner Bruce Helford.
Harris: And I'd like to thank our wonderful team, particularly Kate
Amend, Don Lenzer, Lee Holdridge, Gary Rydstrom, Dame Judi Dench,
and my lovely wife. It's been a great privilege as a documentarian
to share the pain and triumph of the people in our film. They've
enriched all our lives. Thank you.
