Review of Darkest Hour (2017) by James B — 09 Feb 2018
This is that rare film that combines brilliant direction, outstanding acting, crisp dialogue and engrossing cinematography. Gary Oldman is Oscar king as is the movie. He invests empathy, wit and humanity in his Churchill character.
You get swept up into the story from the get-go and become engrossed in the historical and human drama. Overhead photography of the conflict is novel and adds to the artistry. Best film I've seen in a year.
