Churchill's first month as prime minister in 1940. This is the darkest moment in the movie. Besides the question of the evacuation of 300,000 people at Dunkirk hanging over his head, Winston was troubled by the constraints of Chamberlain and Halifax in the House of Lords, forcing him to make peace with Hitler.
God's teeth! Do not buggering it up!
Therefore, this film fictionalized the process of the Prime Minister getting out of the special car and going to the subway to listen to the opinions of the people. About 20 people made it clear that they would never surrender. The Prime Minister was greatly encouraged, and the film ended in such a wave of courage.
To put it bluntly, it is to shape Churchill's film, to be lively.
As his wife Clemmy commented: you are strong because you are imperfect, you are wise because you have doubts.

The vast majority of the film's locations are in wartime government buildings. Dark and isolated.
This is the old house that the crew found in Yorkshire, and the inner courtyard of Buckingham Palace was also filmed there.
The atmosphere of the parliamentary debate was also well grasped, and historian Reed made great efforts. This person has been invited to our Nanjing University.
In addition to Churchill's dress, his Cuban cigars, the interior of the building, in addition to the historical details, the most important thing is that he has captured the core temperament -
Regardless of success or failure, one must face it bravely. That's what the title Darkest Hour really means. Hear, Hear
Thanks to Oldman for giving us the opportunity to meet our idols face to face.

For some reason, witnessing such difficult times always reminds me of Chinese history.
For example, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the purple-bearded son Sun Quan approached Lu Su and said that Zhang Zhao and the others had already been bought off, so they didn't care whether to surrender or fight, only Lu Su was willing to go to the three-point plan.
The same is true of China's resistance to Japan. There is also the Anshi Rebellion, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom faced by Zeng Guofan.
Courage, indeed, is a rare quality.
That's why we've grown up admiring Churchill implicitly. In college, I recited Churchill's English speech over and over again.
It seems that courage can be possessed.
