Joe Wright is directing “Darkest Hour,” derived from Churchill’s phrase to
describe the period of World War II between the fall of France in June 1940
and the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union a year later in 1941, when the
British Empire stood alone against Nazi Germany and the Axis Powers in
Europe. During that period, the United Kingdom was under threat of invasion
and bombardment with over 1,500 civilians dying in London alone in a single
night from Lufwaffe bombing raids on May 10, 1941.
《最黑暗的時刻》由喬.萊特執導,片名取自邱吉爾本人的原話,描述1940年6月法國淪陷
到1941年6月納粹入侵蘇聯,期間僅大英帝國獨自面對歐洲軸心國勢力。這段期間,英國籠
罩在被入侵的陰影中,1941年5月10日,由納粹德國空軍策劃的倫敦大轟炸造成超過1500名
平民死亡。
Churchill became Prime Minister in May 1940, and was under pressure to
appease Germany. Three weeks after taking office, a quickly assembled British
fleet of more than 800 boats saved more than 335,000 soldiers who had been
cut off by the German army at Dunkirk on the French coast. As the rescue was
concluding, Churchill told Parliament, “We shall fight on beaches, we shall
fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in fields and in the streets, we
shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender.”
邱吉爾於1940年5月成為首相,他上任後即遭受朝野要求姑息德國的壓力。三個禮拜後,英
國快速集合超過800艘船艦,在法國港口敦克爾克救下超過335,000名被德軍包抄的英法盟
軍士兵。救援行動結束後,邱吉爾在下議院發表演說:「我們將在海灘上作戰;我們將在
敵人登陸地點作戰;我們將在田野和街頭作戰;我們將在山區作戰;我們決不投降。」
Anthony McCarten, who received Oscar nominations for writing and producing
Working Title’s “The Theory of Everything,” is the screenwriter and
producer on “Darkest Hour.” Lisa Bruce and Working Title co-chiefs Tim
Bevan and Eric Fellner are also producing.

Karenina” for Working Title and Focus.

邱吉爾在下議院的演講:
我們必須極其小心,不要把這次撤退蒙上勝利的色彩,戰爭不是靠撤退來取勝的。……德
國人拚命想擊沉海面上數千艘滿載戰士的船隻,但他們被擊退了,他們遭到了挫敗,我們
撤出了遠征軍!……
歐洲大片的土地和許多古老著名的國家,即使已經陷入或可能陷入秘密警察和納粹統治的
種種罪惡機關的魔掌,我們也毫不動搖,毫不氣餒。我們將戰鬥到底。我們將在法國作戰
,我們將在海上和大洋中作戰,我們將具有愈來愈大的信心和愈來愈強的力量在空中作戰
;我們將不惜任何代價保衛我們的島嶼。我們將在海灘上作戰;我們將在敵人登陸地點作
戰;我們將在田野和街頭作戰;我們將在山區作戰;我們決不投降。即使這個島嶼或它的
大部分被征服並陷入飢餓之中,這是我一分鐘也沒有相信過的,我們在海外的帝國臣民仍
要英國艦隊的武裝保護之下,繼續戰鬥,直到新世界在上帝認為適當的時候用它全部的力
量和能力,來拯救和解放這個舊世界。....

近年二戰電影好像又變多了?
這個題材,感覺蓋瑞叔想要再次衝擊奧斯卡影帝?
《哈利波特》跟《黑暗騎士三部曲》裡頭我最喜歡的角色都是蓋瑞.歐德曼演的,所以看
到他要拍攝新作真的很開心。不過蓋瑞叔瘦瘦的,演胖胖的邱吉爾好有反差感XDD。
順帶一提,《哈利波特》中與天狼星.布萊克同為劫盜者一員的彼得.佩迪魯,其飾演者
Timothy Spall也在《王者之聲:宣戰時刻》中飾演邱吉爾。
