      Main battle or anti-war, this is a question

      After the trauma of the First World War, in the general anti-war mood, who could have expected that the cloud of war would once again condense over Hitler's Germany. war? Or and? Today it seems to be history, but in the eyes of the people of the time, there is indeed a dark mist ahead. Those who take the initiative to fight, guide the situation and ultimately defeat the enemy are undoubtedly the winners in history today, but who had this vision, will, courage and strength on that day? It was...

      Churchill is back

      The title is the final line of the film "Winston is back". "Come back" means that you have left. Perhaps it can abandon the identity of the British Prime Minister and the historical background of World War II, and simply regard it as the ups and downs of a political figure.
      Politics is complicated, and it is not easy for people who "mixed" in politics. But there are some people who cannot leave politics. There is no affirmative or negative meaning here, but refers to a character trait,...

      Glorious isolation and ordinary love

      I have read Nixon's book "Leaders" before, and the first person to write in the opening chapter is Winston Churchill, who is titled "The Greatest Man of Our Time".
          
      Not only did Nixon think so, but Fat Yau also claimed to be a great man. He once said: "We are all bugs, but my confirmation is that I am a firefly." Convinced of the so-called destiny, he calmly and tenaciously survived a decade of glorious isolation.
          
      I have always admired Yau very much. Although he has...

      Tells how Churchill made a comeback from his failure in the 1930s to discover the ultimate goal of the Nazis and lobby Parliament. Although Albert Finney looks a long way, but the body is more like Brendan Gleeson. It turns out that Winston is blond and likes to be naked,...

      This theme is good, but I think it still shows too much of life. The complex international situation and political struggles at that time were not fully revealed, and the side that made Churchill an outstanding statesman was not revealed in a profound...

      So many familiar faces. Speaking of which, it was only when I went to Blenheim Palace this summer that I learned of Winston's origin = = I remembered The Turning Point when I built a...

Although he has retired, he still participates in the discussions in Congress, but he is still depressed all day and his life is at a low ebb. To make matters worse, Churchill became one of the biggest victims in the stock market crash, and his financial situation was very bad. Although he wrote articles for major newspapers day and night, he still could not...

    Evaluation action

    "The Gathering Storm" breaks the traditional narrative structure, and the whole story is full of surprises. The director Richard Loncraine's delicate handling of the transition between the protagonists makes the film more tension than the general warmth genre. In addition, the film also shows excellent scenes of contests between the two sides of will, and perfectly combines reasoning techniques with psychological performance, and uses...

    • [the sound of Sarah tap-dancing can be heard through the ceiling]

      Clemmie Churchill: I think she wants to do it professionally.

      Winston Churchill: Annoy people?

    • Sir Robert Vansittart: Do you know what Lloyd George said about him? "He'd use the skin of his mother as a drum to sound his own praises."

    • Winston Churchill: There may be a war. I grant you that. Nevertheless we shall win.

      Ralph Wigram: How can you say that? It's just mindless optimism.

      Winston Churchill: [nods no] When I was at school, I had a friend called Merlind Evans. And one day we were talking about what we would do when we were grown up. And I don't know why I said this, or, why I thought it, but I said, "One day in the future, Britain will be in great danger, and it will fall to *me* to save London and the Empire."

      Ralph Wigram: Schoolboy fantasy. I wanted to play for England or climb Everest.

      Winston Churchill: [half nod no] My destiny. And I truly believe it.

      Ralph Wigram: You're an extraordinary man, Winston.

      Winston Churchill: I am, I know it.

      Ralph Wigram: Nobody but you could say that sort of thing and expect people to believe it.
