With one small quibble, I thought it was very well done. The quibble was showing a "Dakota" (essentially a Douglas DC-3) as the aircraft in which WSC flew the Atlantic to see FDR in 1941. No way could that twin-engine aircraft have made it across the pond!
But the characterizations seemed spot on, the settings fitting, and the wartime background well portrayed (especially the early scene at the RAF Fighter Command field). If anything it sped by too quickly . . .

It’s called Into The Storm and features Brendan Gleeson as WSC and Janet McTeer as Clementine. I’ve been told it covers the long swath of WWII history and has some reference to the late May 1940 debate. > > I hope it’s terrific.
