British Movietone On this day in 1955, Sir Winston Churchill retired as Prime Minister of Great Britain. Here is a British Movietone report from 1942 when Sir Churchill addressed Congress.
The Prime Minister addresses the US Congress. good angle of Churchill making a speech in the Senate House. Churchill is flanked by four men. Churchill makes a joke about his mother being American and his father English. Closer view. He speaks of government by the people for the people. He speaks of American involvement in the war. CU of Churchill making his speech - this is best shot of him in all the cuts. He states that both Britian and American have a time of tribulation ahead of them. Wider shot. He speaks of Japanese and of teaching them a lesson that they will never forget. Churchill gets a standing ovation. He stands and smiles.
