I saw the movie “The Darkest Hour” and was amazed. There were no sex scenes or nude scenes nor even any profanity—and the movie even featured a cat!
I have yet to see it but must have been a testing period when the Nazis looked unstoppable.
They had plans for the UK: “Operation Sea Lion”
Gary Oldman portrayed Churchill as a weak vacillating cuck who couldn’t fight his way out of a wet paper bag. For an actor I usually admire that was an inexcusable low blow to a truly great man of history.
“The Darkest Hour”
I bought it on DVD/BluRay, and it was simply amazing.
They took a bit of creative license (Churchill taking the Tube, for example), but Gary Oldham did a phenomenal job of portraying one of the greatest wartime leaders of the 20th century.
MikelTackNailer - I disagree with your view on how Churchill was portrayed. I didn’t see him as a “weak vacillating cuck” as you did, but will have to re-watch it to see why you think that.
I do agree with you on this, though “I’d think Hollywood is purposely trying to tear down all the greatness of anyone who happened to be born white and male.”. How many movies have replaced the “white male” hero with women, or black women, or even black men? Almost all of them. I have no problem with Denzel Washington becoming “The Equalizer”, because he’s a great actor - in almost any movie I’ve ever seen of his he’s fantastic. But, Queen Latifah as “The Equalizer”? Just doesn’t cut it for me. There are way too many to list, of course, so that was just one example.
