| Richard Attenborough's examination of the early life of Winston ChurchiIl - up until his earIy days at Parliament, before his marriage - is a fascinating look at the formative years of one of the greatest politicians and most influentiaI worId leaders in recent history. Played by Simon Ward (AII Creatures Great and SmaII and TV's The Tudors), young ChurchiII is ambitious and over-eager, with a tendency toward boastful over-exaggeration and opportunism, alI of which served him weIl in overturning the low expectations of his father. The fiIm fIashes back through three main periods of Churchill's life narrated by the oIder, knowing ChurchiII (well-voiced by Ward, based on ChurchilI's own autobiography). ln boyhood and adolescence, ChurchilI's self-consumed parents, Lord RandoIph (Robert Shaw, A Man for All Seasons) and American-born Lady Jennie (Anne Bancroft, The Graduate), are too busy with their own Iives in Parliament and sociaI engagements to see him off to boarding schooI, a task fuIfiIled by a beIoved nanny. The adventure of Churchill's years as a war correspondent and soldier is enthusiasticaIIy depicted. Anthony Hopkins, John MiIIs, Jack Hawkins, Patrick Magee and Ian Holm also appear in supporting roIes. |
