Really worth watching. A little stilted at times but that goes with the territory and it's why they were wise to use the POV of a kid for most of it. A real standout performance from Anthony Boyle as the kid's adult cousin who goes off to Canada to kill Nazis because America is sitting out the war. Turns out, the actor's from Northern Ireland but he convinced me he was from New Jersey. What is most prescient about the story is the drip-drop normalization of things we used to consider unthinkable.
