One Against the Wind

EW's GRADE
B

Details Movie Rated: PG; Genres: Drama, War; With: Judy Davis and Sam Neill

Originally produced for the Hallmark Hall of Fame, this World War II true story is typically steadfast and tasteful. But One Against the Wind also has more than the usual spunk, thanks mostly to Judy Davis, who plays a British socialite helping Allied soldiers escape from occupied France. Every time the action starts to bog down, Davis takes over the scene, delivers a sharp rejoinder, and gets things rolling again. B
