Young Winston film follows Churchill youth across lands
Film producer Carl Foreman leads a multinational shoot for a $6 million Columbia drama about Winston Churchill's early years up to age 27. Simon Ward portrays the young lieutenant, with Anne Bancroft and Robert Shaw as his parents. The project spans India, Africa, The Sudan, Morocco, and England, aiming to capture Churchill’s genesis and personal arc without glorifying him.
