關於這部電影

After the death of his father King George V (Michael Gambon of HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE) and the scandalous abdication of King Edward VIII (Guy Pearce of MOMENTO), Bertie (Academy-Award®-nominee Colin Firth) who has suffered from a debilitating speech impediment all his life, is suddenly crowned King George VI of England. With his country on the brink of war and in desperate need of a leader, his wife, Elizabeth (Golden-Globe®-nominee Helena Bonham Carter), the future Queen Mother, arranges for her husband to see an eccentric speech therapist, Lionel Logue (Academy-Award®-winner Geoffrey Rush). After a rough start, the two delve into an unorthodox course of treatment and eventually form an unbreakable bond. With the support of Logue, his family, his government and Winston Churchill (Timothy Spall of SWEENEY TODD), the King will overcome his stammer and deliver a radio-address that inspires his people and unites them in battle. Winner of four Oscars® including "Best Picture" and "Best Actor," The King's Speech is based on the true story of King George VI's quest to find his voice.

評分和評論

By far the best movie. I had heard the man that wrote it took to the the Queen mother if he could make it. She replied after I am gone. She had told him it was still very painful. So he put it away tell she past away to make the movie.

Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush are simply stunning in this movie. I never new the true struggles, the true courge and the true bravery behind King George the IV's rise to power. This movie is not at all boring, actully amusing at times! Check it out.

Unless you're seriously interested in this particular moment in history, you'll probably go "meh"
