The Gathering Storm

by ashbourne2 @ 2008-05-06 - 08:04:07

Our Golden Week is finishing.

I watched The Gathering Storm. I have not read Mr. Churchill's writings at all. From this film I could see he was the greatest leader of his day and perhaps in England's great history, and this is a movie that shows Winston as the human, both of a father and a husband.

Hello! Churchill was the right man at the right time but as soon as the war ended he was voted out of office. He had plenty of faults and wasn't liked by many of his colleagues.
He was, understandably, one of this countries great leaders, and often said to be the greatest.
Take care! xx

All Britain acclaimed Churchill as a national hero. That's what I imagined about him. "He had plenty of faults and wasn't liked by many of his colleagues." That's true? It's an education for me. Thank you for the comments.
