Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAgutter playing Roberta for the third time over 54 years breaks the world record for playing the same character over the longest period of time in a movie. Also, the 52-year gap between her second and third time is a record for reprising a role. Both times succeeding Nick Castle.
- GoofsThe blackout did not appear to be in force in Oakworth. In many scenes, from Lily climbing out of the window and running down the field with a torch, to front doors being opened in a blaze of light, there was no indication that a blackout was in force at all.
Blackout regulations started on 1st September 1939 and ended in May 1945. Rules were relaxed slightly in September 1944, but only to allow very low levels of lighting, no brighter than moonlight.
Lily's torch would have been pasted over with dark paper to dim the beam, or black paper with a slit in it.
Featured review
A good idea but...
It was a good idea to update the railway children story of the Second World War but an absolutely dumb idea to put modern ideas of racism - presumably to please the woke crowd - into it. Come on this is a children's film. We know that racism existed in the American army but the enemy was not the Americans but the Nazis. Even the murderous Joe Stalin was on our side! The idiots who rewrite history like this give our children the wrong idea, that somehow the brave lads who went to war against one of the most murderous regimes ever were the bad guys. These things are just totally annoying and totally out of place in children's films. Another example of woke virtue signalling. The movie could've been made a lot more entertaining with a lot better and more imaginative screenplay. Hopeless!
