“We don’t learn about the Holocaust in my school,” Sophie recently shared. “So when I did the movie I had to do a lot of research.”
She added, “Kids my age — our generation — don’t know enough about what happened [during World War II]. Some people think it’s annoying that we keep on making these [Holocaust] movies, but I don’t think so because all of the [concentration] camp survivors are gonna die at some point — they’re not gonna be alive soon — and I just hope that in 100 years people remember what happened, first of all to not let it happen again and sort of for a way to remember the people that died and to remember the people that fought for them. So I just think it’s really important that we keep on making these movies.”

Sophie Nelisse arrives with a smile for The Book Thief special screening held at the Simon Wisenthal Center’s Museum of Tolerance on Saturday afternoon (November 2nd) in Los Angeles.
The 13-year-old actress was joined by producers Ken Blancato and Karen Rosenfelt, director Brian Percival, co-star Geoffrey Rush and author Markus Zusak.
“I saw Monsieur Lazhar which Sophie shot when she was ten,” Geoffrey shared with Collider. “That film was comparably tough material for those kids.”
He added, “I just felt that I’d never seen anyone of that age have such a natural, beautiful rapport with a lens and be able to delve into such a level of emotional credibility and subtlety and so effortless, with a kind of gracefulness and a charisma on screen that’s not showy and not something to decorate the character, just a natural energy that radiates.”
