Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Georgia Hunter's powerful and decade-spanning novel of survival makes its way to the screen with We Were the Lucky Ones. Based on the true story of Hunter's own family, the Hulu miniseries chronicles the lives of the Kurcs, a Polish Jewish family whose lives are upended when Germany invades the country in 1939, kicking off World War II.
Hunter Goes "Way Back" With We Were The Lucky Ones Director Tommy Kail Screen Rant: It's a wonderful opportunity to meet you, Georgia, and to talk about this show. It is such a beautiful, and heartwarming, as well as heartbreaking, story. When you were first approached by Tommy and Erica, what was it like learning that they wanted to help bring this story to the screen?
I love to hear that, and I actually did want to touch on the partnership you've just mentioned. How involved were you in the actual development, writing and all of that on the show? Hunter & Co. Made 1 Change From The Book I always love to hear when the original author is that deeply involved, it means that something very special's being created. You mentioned staying true to the source material. Were there any major changes made to your book and your family story going into this?
I think it was really important to set the stage for audiences to meet this family. It is a true family, a true ensemble of a piece with the five siblings and the parents and a young baby born along the way. So, I loved that opening, and being a part of that shoot was one of my favorite days on set.
