To Arms!Young Winston (1972) - Color - PG Simon Ward, Robert Shaw, Anne Bancroft, Anthony Hopkins Played by Simon Ward, young Churchill is ambitious and over-eager, with a tendency toward boastful over-exaggeration and opportunism, all of which served him well in overturning the low expectations of his father.
