Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill, KG, OM, CH, TD, PC, DL, FRS, RA (30 November 1874 – 24 January 1965) was a British statesman who was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1940 to 1945 and again from 1951 to 1955. Churchill was also an officer in the British Army, a historian, a writer (as Winston S. Churchill), and an artist. He won the Nobel Prize in Literature, and was the first person to be made an honorary citizen of the United States.
Churchill was born into the family of the Dukes of Marlborough, a branch of the Spencer family. His father, Lord Randolph Churchill, was a charismatic politician who served as Chancellor of the Exchequer; his mother, Jennie Jerome, was an American socialite. As a young army officer, he saw action in British India, the Sudan, and the Second Boer War. He gained fame as a war correspondent and wrote books about his campaigns.
At the forefront of politics for fifty years, he held many political and cabinet positions. Before the First World War, he served as President of the Board of Trade, Home Secretary, and First Lord of the Admiralty as part of Asquith's Liberal government. During the war, he continued as First Lord of the Admiralty until the disastrous Gallipoli Campaign caused his departure from government. He then briefly resumed active army service on the Western Front as commander of the 6th Battalion of the Royal Scots Fusiliers. He returned to government under Lloyd George as Minister of Munitions, Secretary of State for War, Secretary of State for Air, then Secretary of State for the Colonies. After two years out of Parliament, he served as Chancellor of the Exchequer in Baldwin's Conservative government of 1924–1929, controversially returning the pound sterling in 1925 to the gold standard at its pre-war parity, a move widely seen as creating deflationary pressure on the UK economy.

Documentary Films - The Life and Times of Winston Churchill
The great PM gives one of his most famous speeches. It starts off quite calmly but the old master builds the suspence. Once Churchill was speaking in Parliament and was slightly muddled and incoherent in his speech. A rather unattractive lady MP on the opposite benches declared to Churchill: 'Sir, you are drunk!'. To which he replied 'Madame that may be true, but in the morning I shall be sober whereas you will still be ugly'.

Voici un documentaire/ reportage sur Winston Churchill en qualité HD 1080p
Winston Churchill es una de las grandes personalidades del siglo XX. Su firmeza, su fe inquebrantable en el futuro y su convicción de que los británicos saldrán victoriosos durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial hacen de él un símbolo de resistencia frente a la tiranía y un bastión frente al avance nazi.
Der britische Premier Winston Churchill gilt als begnadeter Exzentriker. Er brillierte als Staatsmann, Redner und Schriftsteller und polarisierte zugleich durch sein ungestümes Wesen. Die Dokumentation zeigt Churchills Leben, politisch und privat. Film- und Tondokumente, die aufwändig koloriert oder digital aufbereitet wurden, eröffnen überraschende Perspektiven auf eine widersprüchliche und faszinierende Persönlichkeit.
