I watched Dunkirk before this film, because the battlefield looked too hard, so I watched this film with a certain prejudice against the rulers at that time. The impression of Winston Churchill was that he was versatile, sharp and sharp. Take advantage of difficult situations. He was originally from a military academy, so when the film initially disagreed with Harry on whether to continue the war, he just felt that he did not have a deep understanding of the weight of the lives of those who died on the battlefield.
But as the film progresses, I gradually realize that the film has a profound description of Churchill and the delicacy of the actor Gary Oldman's acting skills. No matter what his background, no matter what his experience, no matter what his status is, it is difficult for a person to compete with him. Churchill is inherently human, and when he can't decide whether to make peace, but he doubts his decision, his actions are difficult for the prime ministers of ordinary countries to do, and really go into the people.
To every man upon this earth, Death cometh soon or late, and how can man die better than fear facingful odds for the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods.
For all beings in the world, death will come sooner or later;
If you die in the face of a strong enemy to protect the bones of the ancestors and the temple of faith,
There is no nobler death than this
The poems of Horatius could not have been more appropriate in this context. Of course maybe it's just a little bit of polish in the movie, but I think in actual history there should be something similar on Churchill's own agenda, so he's a hero to the British people.
Whether a person can govern a country well, it is difficult to rely on one's own efforts, not to mention that when the country's disaster is imminent, and all the people have already fallen into panic, it is difficult for you to be alone. But some people have a firm will and faith, so they can become leaders whom the people want. But a good leader can't avoid sacrificing the precious lives of the people sometimes, so they will also experience difficult choices and entanglements, so if you are just a commoner, then maybe you can't do those things in the game board to set the rules of the game and be the owner but you should be lucky, so you can easily spend your life.
