We Were the Lucky Ones

I watched this show within 2 days, at least the first episodes that anre available. I don't think the other reviewer did. First, it's not a movie. Second, because by the point of the most recent episode we have barely gotten to 1941.

The show covers lesser known stories during WWII like Russian Siberian work camps (so many political prisoners and their families died due to harsh conditions in these camps) as well as the plight of European Jews attempting to sail to another continent.

Lastly, it's actually about Jewish people. The protagonists are Jewish and not some white savior. And the protagonists are acted by Jewish people. It seems the other reviewer found all of this somehow intolerable, as it's not the norm.

The show is pretty good. I will finish it when the rest of the episodes come out. Logan Lerman fell off my radar after the blockbusters of his early career but I was pleasantly surprised to see him and King fill their roles.
