It is also a loose sequel to an earlier movie about Churchill (''The Gathering Storm'', about Churchill's wilderness years before the War), but it features none of the cast and production staff of the former, although they have the same producer and screenwriter (respectively, Frank Doelger and Hugh Whitemore).

* AntiVillain: Lord Halifax is something of an antagonist in the first half of the movie (as he seeks peace with Hitler, opposite to Churchill), but he's portrayed as simply misguided. He's shown as wise, calm, well-mannered and respectful. Churchill himself notes Halifax is no enemy of his.[[note]]Halifax went on to be an extremely effective British Ambassador to the USA, a post he held until his retirement in 1946.[[/note]]

* BoringButPractical: After years of war and high-flown rhetoric, when the war is at last coming to an end and people have their eyes on the future, this is how they perceive Clement Attlee, as opposed to Churchill.

* OpenMouthInsertFoot: When Churchill is preparing his election broadcast, against the advice of ''literally everyone'', he insists on keeping in the bit about how a socialist government under Labour would have to control dissenting opinion by means of "some sort of Gestapo". We see the broadcast being played on the radio in various places, with people basically ignoring him, except for one man in battledress who disgustedly comments "That's bollocks." It also leaves Churchill wide open for Attlee's far more dignified and effective rebuttal in his own broadcast.
