If you loved Churchill, try The Railway Man

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Jonathan Teplitzky, and they sit in Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to Churchill, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Railway Man is

Silence meets Unbroken when a broken ex-POW hunts his tormentors decades later. After escaping the Burma Railway his mind stays trapped yet he tracks two former guards to confront them. A slow but sturdy exorcism carried by Colin Firth’s minimalist fury.
