THE DARKEST HOUR: Gary Oldman IS Winston Churchill in this Golden Globe nominated performance. A performance that will undoubtedly lead to an Oscar nomination as well. He is remarkable! While the film feels more like a history lesson at times, it is certainly noteworthy for Oldman's performance. Kristin Scott Thomas as his wife and Lily James as his loyal secretary, along with Ben Mendelsohn as King Edward VI add to the proceedings. A bit slow in spots, it is nonetheless a film you will enjoy (even more so, if your saw the GG nominated "Dunkirk" earlier this year). This is Oldman's finest hour (or two).
