Darkest Hour, set May 1940, stars Gary Oldman as Winston Churchill and is an account of his early days as prime minister during the Second World War. …
At the 71st British Academy Film Awards it received nine nominations including Best Film and Outstanding British Film.
Oldman won for Best Actor.
Oldman’s performance is exceptional. Worth watching.
But I found the film too slow. In real life, Churchill was more entertaining than that.
