What happens

Churchill: The Hollywood Years is a 2004 comedy film directed by Peter Richardson, who co-wrote the screenplay with Pete Richens. It stars Christian Slater as Winston Churchill and Neve Campbell as Elizabeth II. The film is a satire on the Hollywood take on history, such as U-571 (portraying the capture of an Enigma machine as being by the Americans rather than the British) and Pearl Harbor (where American participation in the Battle of Britain was exaggerated).
