Summary: A Linus Roache Fan!
Review: This was a movie with great insight to Prime Minister Winston Churchill. The man was a true political visionary. I could imagine Winston going through quite a bit of storms at home, and at the office. The flick had a wonderful way of telling the story. I appreciated the story of his homelife as well. Ms. Redgrave, and Mr. Finney are fantastic. One can only imagine what went through the minds of Great Britain in pre-WW II. He always believed he would be called upon to save Britain. Linus Roache's role was small in this one. If you are a fan of Linus Roache there is enough on him to keep your interest in the film as well. This film was in two words, "Quite Brilliant!"
Purchasing this one you cannot go wrong. I give it two thumbs up.

Summary: Wow
Review: Well,it is an English movie so of course there is male nudity and dark humor. Albert Finney, the man (the lawyer) from Erin Brockovich movie, has given us a stunning performance in this movie. He is Winston Churchil prior to second world war and before he became a prime minister.
You should absolutely watch this movie - and when you do - you'll find out something you never knew about England and Nazis.
Appearantly English Government sold Hitler 8000 planes prior to WWII unbeknownst to them that Hitler would bomb England with the very same planes!It is another "boring" English movie but it's worth watching it and I highly recommend it to all. There's so much to be learned from it!

Summary: CHURCHILL ALIVE AGAIN!
Review: When I first heard that Albert Finney would play Sir Winston Churchill in "The Gathering Storm" I was disappointed and wondered how he could pull it off. Still I watched the movie and the first appearance of Mr. Finney on screen as the venerable and legendary British hero put all of my fears to rest. Winston was alive again. The same can be said for the performance of Vanessa Redgrave as Clementine Churchill. The movie is filled with facts about Churchill's activities leading up to war with Germany, his intelligence activities and his relationship with his wife and family. The film is a must have for all Churchillophiles.
