What Darkest Hour Is About
Joe Wright's 2017 film covers Churchill's first weeks as prime minister. There is pressure in the cabinet to seek terms. The evacuation at Dunkirk is under way in the same days. The film takes place almost entirely in enclosed rooms; the narrative brings the indecision forward and makes speech the real weapon. Gary Oldman won the Academy Award for actor and the film also won for makeup. The scene on the underground is invented and has no historical basis. Who it's for: those who like historical drama and performance-led films. Who it's not for: viewers expecting battle scenes; the film stays in rooms.
