Gathering storm

Watched the ''gathering storm'' tonight on HBO. At the age of 23, I finally got tot know the self-centredness, persistence and an eccentric mind the greatest Englishman ever bore. It is a pity that the movie ended at his return to the English navy with his well-known remarks: ``Winston is back!''. Just too early to end. I thought the movie would drag on until he finished his war with the help of the Americans. But for a man like this, a 2-hour film should not be enough to accurately depict what he did and truly reflect his peronalities. One thing i learnt though- to be great, you cannot cooperate. Persist if you believe in it. There is no truth in the world. There is only history. One has to bear responbilities of wrong decisions. But, if you are not brave enough to follow your own route, only failure will follow and you will have to bear the responsibility too - for mediocrisy.
