Review of Darkest Hour (2017) by Andrew O — 17 Jan 2018
If ever there were anj acting tour de force, it is Gary Oldman as Churchill in this extraordinary acting performance. Oldman disappears into his character and with great make up and prosthetics he is the complete embodiment of Churchill.
The balance of the cast, script, production design to re-create London during the Blitz is terrific as well. Oldman's performance is on a par with the Oscar winning role of Patton by George C. Scott.
Take it to the bank, Oldman will win the Oscar for best performance. This should not be missed.
