The King's Speech tells the story of the man who became King George VI, the father of Queen Elizabeth II. After his brother abdicates, George ('Bertie') reluctantly assumes the throne. Plagued by a dreaded stutter and considered unfit to be king, Bertie engages the help of an unorthodox speech therapist named Lionel Logue. Through a set of unexpected techniques, and as a result of an unlikely friendship, Bertie is able to find his voice and boldly lead the country into war.

Quiet, contemplative cinema — the kind where silence says more than dialogue. The director trusts the viewer and doesn't explain everything. That's rare.
The slow rhythm may tire those waiting for events. But for those willing to sink in, the film pulls hard. It's cinema for a second viewing.
Good for thoughtful solo viewing. Not for a group that wants background noise.
Director: Tom Hooper
