I watched CC's clip below, loved it and actually watched it last night


Yeah it was very cool...then did the research (which ALWAYS ruins movies based on historical events) and there was a bit more artistic license taken in key moments. First, the secretary depicted wasn't even there until a year later. Second, the 'tube ride' never happened. Can't say about the visit from the King though...I think there was, but I think they portrayed the consternation in the war room a bit more than it was.

All that aside, was a great flick and Oldman knocked it out to the park.
