HIT US UP:

[qcompressed]

Imagine being a soldier in that base and just hearing your leader yell “up your bum” while laughing down the hallway

[patsfreak]

Well... what else do you want to tell Hitler?

[Woozler]

What a fantastic actor Gary Oldman is. He didn't play Churchill. He BECAME Churchill. Incredible job!

Extremely glad he got the Academy Award for this role. Was long overdue.

[GeneralAdvance]

The most appreciable part is that he kept on doing it

[franklesher]

Everyone in the audience laugh when this scene appeared

[youtubecreators]

I just love how Churchill laughs along with the girl. It shows he has a sense of humor and can laugh at his own misfortune.

[safespacebear]

Those two have great chemistry. I love all their scenes together. For a young actress she more than held her own in scenes with Gary Oldman. I loved her from Downton Abbey and was so pleased to see her turn in such a great performance in Darkest Hour

[psychoboom]

That's what I like about Churchill, he had a sense of humor

[tonyjames]

The V sign goes back to the middle ages, if the French captured English archers, (who were the most lethal soldiers on the battlefield), they would cut off the two fingers used to draw the bow, subsequently prior to battle English archers would taunt the opposing French by holding up their two fingers, over the centuries this became a classic British f..k you insult.

[Fibonaccisghost]

"I was captured by the Boer. I spent time in a South African prison."

What a great way to tell someone you've heard it all.

[theaadams]

Apparently they weren’t acting in this, Lily and Gary were actually laughing

[billygarcia]

Now that’s a good boss; I was worried he was going to sack the poor girl.

[Lawcoom]

Love this scene. Shows how much of a sense of humor he had especially about himself. Gary Oldman is by far the best rendition of Churchill I've ever seen

[johndean]

"I wouldn't like millions of people to take it the wrong way."
"Oh, indeed!"

[golfhound]

Gary Oldman is one of my favorite actors. I would say he is one of the greatest character actors England has ever produced. He's up there with Olivier, Richard Burton, Richard Harris, and Peter O'Toole. What an incredible job Oldman did with this role. He was so good that you didn't even know it was him. That takes talent.

[AppleTreeAdam]

Winston Churchill was an eminent scholar of British History and wrote "The History of The English Speaking Peoples". He knew precisely what he was doing and the message he (and the British public) knew he was sending to Hitler. I feel it's a great shame the Director/Scriptwriter missed this gem, it would have made for a better and more accurate telling of the story.

[tommyt]

"Yes, what is it?" Goes from irritable to "Out with it!" to jolly and tickled in a matter of seconds. I can totally imagine the real Churchill being that way.

[bbenjoe]

She laughs. She makes him laugh. They make me laugh.

[arpitachakraborty]

Sirius black shared a hearty laugh with lily james

[coling]

a nice enough scene. but i doubt Churchill was unaware of the meaning .... its an old English gesture going back to the middle ages.. Churchill had been a soldier - he'd have seen this enough times.
