Wonder
Stephen Chbosky, USA, 2017o
Based on the New York Times bestseller, Wonder tells the inspiring and heartwarming story of August Pullman. Born with facial differences that, up until now, have prevented him from going to a mainstream school, Auggie becomes the most unlikely of heroes when he enters the local fifth grade. As his family, his new classmates, and the larger community all struggle to find their compassion and acceptance, Auggie's extraordinary journey will unite them all and prove you can't blend in when you were born to stand out.
Stephen Chbosky hat das Erfolgsbuch «Wonder» von R. J. Palacio herzergreifend, aber gar nicht tränenselig verfilmt. Von Chbosky stammt «The Perks of Being a Wallflower» sowie das Drehbuch zu «Beauty and the Beast», beide mit Emma Watson. Hier hat er Owen Wilson und Julia Roberts als Elternpaar und den formidablen Jacob Tremblay («Room») als Auggie. Für dessen Make-up gabs eine Oscarnomination.
