I just came home from the dollar theater, where I saw the PG-13 version of The King's Speech. I LOVED IT! OMB (oh my blachenshmadiggledorff, for all y'all UNCOOL peoples) I want to see it again. I LOVE TO HEAR BRITISH PEOPLE TALKING FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME, LIKE TWO HOURS. Oops, I left caps lock on...
Yes, the movie is historical. No, it's not boring. Yes, there is one instance where you might cry if you get particularly sentimental about kings of England passing because of old age. And YES, it is VERY funny.
Prince Albert has a stuttering problem. Had it since he was, eh, four or five. After a failed attempt at finding a good speech therapist, he gives up, but his wife continues on. She discovers Lionel Logue. The first session with him and Prince Albert is kind of awkward, but they warm up to each other and become great friends.
Albert's father passes away, and his brother David takes the throne. Then, though, David desires to get married to a trashy lady who's already been divorced twice, and the Anglican church won't allow that. He steps down from the throne--so Albert must step up.
This movie is funny, inspirational, but don't expect a bomb to go off in the middle or anything. It's a quiet movie about a guy, a speech therapist and the crown he doesn't want to have put on his head.
Please watch it! Tank you! Bye!!!!!!!
