Into the Storm on DVD



Jacket: "For five years, Prime Minister Winston Churchill guided his beleaguered nation through the crucible of WWII, playing perhaps the single most important role in thwarting Nazis. As he stood fearlessly in the spotlight of the world's stage, his intrepid leadership and rhetoric inspired millions of Britons and other members of the free world to fight Hitler's Germany to the bitter end. So why did the country he held so dear turn its back on him after the Allied victory?

Continuing the story of Churchill told in the HBO film, The Gathering Storm, the Emmy Award-winning Into the Storm offers an intimate look at the making of a nation's hero, when Churchill was at his most commanding and effective. The film shows how his prowess as a great wartime leader ultimately undermined his political career and threatened his marriage to his wife and lifelong supporter, Clementine."

This is worth checking out, especially for the history buffs.
