		Then in 1999 Davenport was approached by two independent feature filmmakers who wanted to put his films on the site of a video "streaming" company they had founded, AlwaysIndependentfilms.com.

		The late Miriam Davenport Ebel was a scholarly, witty art lover, with strong political beliefs, deeply held humanitarian inclinations, and remarkable savvy.

		To achieve his goal, the scholarly 32-year-old Fry, played by William Hurt, found himself knee-deep in forged documents, illegal financial transactions, and games of bluff with Vichy and German officials.
		He was aided by Miriam Davenport (played by Julia Ormond), a sexually liberated American woman; U.S. vice consul Harry Bingham (Ted Whittall); a shrewd refugee (Matt Craven); a skilled forger (Alan Arkin) and a feisty Alma Werfel-Mahler (Lynn Redgrave).
		Fry’s job was not made easier, at least in this version, by Chagall, who insisted that as a French citizen and famous artist, he was immune to Nazi persecution.

		He had the personal endorsement of Eleanor Roosevelt and funds raised privately, but that's about it.
		According to Varian's War, he was also assisted by an American woman named Miriam Davenport as well as a handful of artists, diplomats and others, all working on the sly.
		It's a great story, and it's brought to life with the help of William Hurt as Varian Fry, along with Julia Ormond as Miss Davenport and a cast that includes Lynn Redgrave (fairly hilarious and impressive here as Alma Mahler), Matt Craven, Alan Arkin, Maury Chaykin and Remy Girard.

		He portrays Fry as something of a dandy -- there are questions about his sexuality, with Fry even enjoying some mild flirtation with Marseilles' most urbane Nazi -- but still a man with rare conviction and courage.
		An American-accented Julia Ormond (as Miriam Davenport, Fry's strident girl Friday) helps raise the movie above the level of the mundane.
		Varian's War is too clunky and staid to qualify as a great film, but it's a cut above the usual history lesson.

	THE VARIAN FRY STORY
		Since his committee had the task of saving intellectuals, artists and politicians, refugees had to prove their credentials in one of these domains.
		This could entail either being known to someone whom Fry trusted or in the case of some artists being told to make a picture of the Vieux Port which was then judged by an American art student, Miriam Davenport.
		This process of selection has been one of the principle criticisms levelled against Fry.
