'One Life' Portrays the Heroic Deeds of Nicholas Winton: Early Screening at the PBS SoCal Cinema Series

About adapting the book for the screenplay, producers Emile Sherman and Iain Canning first discussed Nicholas Winton’s story when they co-founded See-Saw Films over 15 years ago, having come across a clip of the BBC "That’s Life!" broadcast. Emile Sherman says, "We knew the first step was to meet Nicholas Winton, who we could tell from the television clip was going to be a very humble man." Iain Canning continues, "We were very lucky to have had the opportunity to meet Nicholas Winton before he passed away. He was the most modest, generous human being, who felt the film should not glorify him, but celebrate how the most ordinary of people can make a huge impact."

Immediately following the screening, Deadline's chief film critic Pete Hammond, who can also be seen on PBS SoCal's Must See Movies, moderated a Q&A with KCRW Host/THR Editor, Kim Masters, whose mother was one of the children rescued by Nicholas Winton.
