Saw "Darkest Hour" and "Dunkirk" back to back and it was an enlightening experience.

The former is the political background of the event and the latter is the event as it played out.

I recommend that if you see these two movies you also get the older "Atonement" for a psychological angle as Dunkirk plays out in that film too.

I was not informed about Dunkirk other than knowing the name and knowing it was WWII but I did watch the movie over the holiday, very good.

Right now the world faces this situation again, the KGB/American Nazi's or the GOP as others know them, are mounting an attack that we must withstand.

Mike Huckabee just compared Trump to Churchill, after all.
You gotta wonder what he sees when he looks at Trump. Well, I guess, "My little girl's boss."
