I'm doing another Churchill. I did a Churchill for HBO and that was up to 1939 and there's talk of the war years. They were going to do it this fall, but the script wasn't going to be ready.

Churchill knew the importance of peace, and he also knew the price of it. Churchill finally got his voice, of course. He stressed strategy, but it was his voice that armed England at last with the old-fashioned moral concepts of honor and duty, justice and mercy.

Mr. Churchill Says
Well mr. churchill says, mr. churchill says
We gotta fight the bloody battle to the very end
Mr. beaverbrook says we gotta save our tin
And all the garden gates
And empty cans are gonna make us win
We shall defend our island
On the land and on the sea
We shall fight them on the beaches
On the hills and in the fields
We shall fight them in the streets
Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed to so few
'cos they have made our british empire
A better place for me and you
And this was their finest hour
Well mr. montgomery says
And mr. mountbatten says
We gotta fight the bloody battle to the very end
As vera lynn would say
We'll meet again someday
But all the sacrifices we must make before the end
Did you hear that plane flying overhead
There's a house an fire and there's someone lying dead
We gotta clean up the streets
And get me back on my feet
Because we wanna be free
Do your worst and we'll do our best
We're gonna win the way that mr. churchill says
Oh! oh! oh! oh! oh! oh! well mr. churchill says
We gotta hold up our chins
We gotta show some courage and some discipline
We gotta black up the windows and nail up the doors
And keep right on till the end of the war

Well, obviously, as soon as I'd finished the script I read a lot of books on Winston Churchill, and started to gain weight and really prepare emotionally, mentally and physically for the role.

If I Could
If I Could
(R. Nielsen T. Petersson R. Zander)
If I could then I would
But I can't so I ask
Cuz I really wasn't ready for you
If I knew what you knew
Shouldn't do what I do
Cuz I really wasn't ready for you (thinkin' of you)
I wasn't ready to say goodbye
But goodbye was ready for me
Least I'll never have to see you cry
Cryin' is over for me
If I am what I am
And it's all that I can
I mighta had some pity for you
What I choose
What I ooze
What I bet
Win or lose
But I'd still be waitin' on you
I wasn't ready to say goodbye
But goodbye was ready for me
Least you'll never have to see me cry
Cryin' is over for me
Who's cryin' now
The more I think about
The less it matters
Who's cryin' now
The less I think about
The more it matters
As I go 'round the world
And I stop in the whirl
As I whirlwhind the world
With you-oou-ou-ou-ou
If I could then I would
But I can't so I ask
Cuz I wasn't really ready for you
I wasn't ready to say goodbye
But goodbye was ready for me
Least you'll never have to see me cry
Cryin' is over for me
Who's cryin now
The more I think about
The less that matters
