It is a quite inspiring story about a man, psychologically scarred, and trapped in a situation from which he could have no escape and facing it with immense courage. The movie starts off with a stammering speech and signs off with a staggering one, with hardly any glitches in between. The basic premise of the movie is fairly simple. A king with a stutter is helped by a maverick speech therapist to overcome his problem and become an inspiring orator. That sounds like a very known territory to most movie goers. But few minutes into the movie, and you realize that this one simply pushes the bar a notch higher.
The film conveyed very powerfully in the opening scene, the enormity of what was required of him. As the film develops, the complexities of the character are revealed. The acting is superb, especially from the three principals, and the development of the troubled and spark relationship at the heart of the film is a joy to watch. The film is very funny and the characters have warmth and humanity. The film is well paced, and carries you along to the emotional climax, so that, even though I knew the story, it had me holding my breath. If you don't need lots of action or special effects in your film, and enjoy seeing top-notch actors at the very peak of their craft, this will be for you. You might also, as I did, gain a bit more insight into the human drama behind a significant, but relatively unexplored period of British history.
The Kings Speech is both a lot funnier and,strangely,a lot more polite than youd probably expect.
The humour mostly comes from Geoffrey Rushs speech therapist,who aims to cure Colin Firths Duke of Yorks terrible stammer.
And this is increasingly imperative; as the film begins,reigning monarch King George V(Michael Gambon)is ailing.There is some controversy over the next-in-line-Guy Pearces only is Edward a bi-plane-flying,party-loving socialite but he is also in a relationship with American divorcee Wallis Simpson(Eve Best)。
Marrying her would cause a constitutional crisis-and potentially rip apart the Church of England.
With the advent of radio,the monarch must be able to speak well,and Firth may well be in the job sooner than he thinks.After trying many options,wife Helena Bonham Carters Elizabeth finally turns to an Antipodean,specialising in some rather unconventional techniques,based on Londons Harley Street.
The Duke and the speech therapist form an unlikely friendship,verbally and even physically bouncing off each other with middle-aged abandon.
These scenes are the backbone of the film.They are funny,entertaining and performed by two actors obviously enjoying themselves enormously.
Geoffrey Rush delivers great line after great line and Firth reacts with a deadpan straightness.Youd wish there would be more of these moments.Additional comedy comes from some of the background characters.For instance,Timothy Spalls Winston Churchill rides the line of parody(mostly)successfully.
As for the films politeness-some of it comes,predictably,from Firths monarch-in-waiting.Hes mild-mannered and sensitive royalty,and Firth employs a similarly understated approach than that of his work in A Single Man.The portrayal is quintessentially English,and as good as weve come to expect from Firth recently.
The remaining politeness comes from the films level of drama.There are crown-loads of dramatic potential here-the troublesome father-son relationship between Gambons truculent,demanding monarch and Firths stammering so.
the tension coming from the American interloper; the painful,unfolding,prelude to the Second World War playing out-but its all background noise.Sometimes it feels forgotten about entirely,and historical perspective is,almost tastelessly,lost.
And although there is a definite direction and development throughout the movie,theres only a sprinkling of edge-of-your-seat material.Any drama is tentative and inoffensive.
So,although there is a lot of humour,crowd-pleasing fun and some award-worthy performances,there is a lack of edge and darkness over adversity is fine if you get the measure of bitter and sweetness right.The Kings Speech fails,and the end result is questionable and problematic.
This is a biopic about how King George VI,the father of Queen Elizabeth II,overcame his stuttering problem.Widely considered by all but his father unfit to be king.
George is reluctantly thrust unto the throne and into the spotlight after his brother is forced to abdicate.
Overshadowed on the global stage by powerful orators like Adolph Hitler and Benito Mussolini,the King relies on the help of a little-known.
Australian speech therapist named Lionel Logue to find his voice and courageously lead his people into the most devastating war humanity has ever faced.
This is a powerful,hilarious and deeply moving story,told against the backdrop of a critical juncture in modern history,of the emergence of a deep friendship out of a professional relationship between two men who would otherwise never have socially interacted.
The screenplay,written by David Seidler(who also wrote Tucker:The Man and his Dream)，is excellent.The dry British wit is hilarious.I was literally slapping my knee during some of the scenes.
Tom Hooper Elizabeth I)does a superb job directing this movie.
The buildup to the climactic finale is skillfully executed and prompted the audience to erupt into spontaneous applause.（Apparently,this also happened at the Roy Thomson Hall premiere.）Geoffrey Rush(Elizabeth:The Golden Age)does a fantastic job as Lionel Logue and Colin Firth(A Single Man)is excellent as King George VI.
I saw the second public screening of this movie at the Ryerson Theater during the Toronto International Film Festival(TIFF)。Tom Hooper was present to introduce the movie.He was joined by Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush after the movie ended for a brief Q&A.
It turns out that David Seidler also had a stuttering problem as a child and drew inspiration from the kings struggle.Early in his career he wanted to write a screenplay about it.
He dutifully asked the Queen Mother for permission.She agreed but told him"not in my lifetime"。Little did he know she would live to be 101 and he would have to wait another 30 years.
Another interesting tidbit we learned was that near the end of the shoot,the crew finally located one of Lionel Logues grandsons,who just so happened to live about 10 minutes away from the director.
They got access to Lionels diaries and correspondence and managed to incorporate some of it into the script.
This movie is an unqualified must see.
The movie starts off with a stammering speech and signs off with a staggering one, with hardly any glitches in between. The basic premise of the movie is fairly simple. A king with a stutter is helped by a maverick speech therapist to overcome his problem and become an inspiring orator. That sounds like a very known territory to most movie goers. But few minutes into the movie, and you realize that this one simply pushes the bar a notch higher.
It is a very pleasing movie, doesn't lead the audience into a lot of
uncomfortable questions. However, the artistry lies in the overall balance of the movie. You slowly start getting gripped by David Seidler's screenplay. The actors are superb, takes it slow and steady with superb grip on each of their characters. While Colin Firth puts in a spectacular performance (one you can't miss), Geoffrey Rush goes a bit more old school and pulls off a subtle and deep portrayal. One that fills up your heart but also keeps your brain active. Humor comes in here and there, with a very easy flow and steady pace. Not for a single moment do you perceive the movie as dull. Helena Bonham Carter is good. Guy Pearce is appropriate, though he does look a bit too casual at times (maybe that was an intentional character flaw).
Most of the movie had been filmed indoors, albeit with eloquent art direction. But the occasional sequences shot outside had been filmed very beautifully, portraying a very dreamy picture of the then England. Sometimes, the camera goes in too close to the characters, and stays there for a while, just long enough to give us a sense of suffocation, quite an artistic equivalent of a
speech disorder ! But then again, negative shades had been whitewashed with joyous ones and you never perceive it as a dark movie. Direction wise, Tom Hooper is bang on ! This is the kind of a movie where you want to give a lot of credit to the director. The set-up is such that the dramatic elements are high but needs to be tamed, so that it doesn't goes over board. And Mr.Hooper hits the bulls eye ! Perfect balance.
All points considered, it's a brilliant movie and a must watch.
A Film Review of The King’s Speech I have seen many movies, and The King’s Speech is one of the best movies. In 2011, the British film
took four awards at the Academy Award, including Best Picture. It is an extraordinary film.
Duke of York, Albert, the second son of King GeorgeⅤ, was asked to make a speech in The British Empire Exhibition in
1925. But he had stutter, he couldn’t say fluently, so he made a fool in public. After that, Albert and his wife Elizabeth began to find a doctor who is able to help Albert. But nobody succeeded. Until 1934, they met Dr. Lionel Logue. Nearly despair Albert began to try Logue’s strange way. In the meantime, in 1936,
King GeorgeⅤdied, and Albert’s brother David was the new king, King Edward VIII. But David wanted to marry Mrs.
Simpson who divorced a man, so he abdicated. Albert was the new king, King George VI. In 1939, Adolf Hitler invaded
Poland, Britain declared war on Germany. King George VI must make a speech to British people. With Logue’s help, King
George VI finished the exciting speech excellently. The movie is touching, I like it very much, it is educational, too. It shows me the power of trust, friendship and love.
A review of One Flew Over the Cuckoo`s nest
There is a widespread anecdote : A frog is placed in boiling water, it will jump out, but if it is placed in cold water that is slowly heated, it will not perceive the danger and will be cooked to death.This story called The boiling frog .And One Flew Over the Cuckoo`s nest just demonstratses this phenomena.People in the cuckoo`s nest just like this frog who get accustoumed to the life that is schedualled and controlled by others and lose the courage to leave.And it takes a lot to go out this slowly heated water.
People in the cuckoo`s nest who are compelled to eat medicine and listen harsh music and are not allowed to watch the ball game are threated badly.Although they always complain about the Cuckoo`s nest ,it never occurred that they want to flew over this disgusting place .They has adapted to the life of being principled ,and their awareness of resistance has died out. When Memurphy comes to there ,he begins to resist the authority of nurse Ralched by claiming to turn down the music and change the schedual to watch the ball game and bring people outside to go fishing. At last , the chief`s awareness of resistence comes to be aroused and leave
this water that is slowly heated successfully.
My review of The King`s Speech
The success of the king`s speech lies in his strong perseverance as well as an equal and trustful relationship has been built between the king and Dr Longue.
There is no doubt that the king is a man with a strong will,which is one factor of his success .In order to overcome his stuttering problem,he meets many doctors and suffers a lot,but he always doesn`t give up.At the beginning of the film,he puts up with the suffer of ingr seven marbles,which gets him angry at last.He still goes to see Dr Longue although he has told his wife not to introduce any doctors to him .Besides,he insists on repeating tongue twisters even when he goes out to persuade his brother David.
Another factor is that there is a relationship with total equality and trust.Owing to the king is faithful in Lionel,he can accept his special methods without hesitation,such as
jumping ,shouting ,rolling on the ground,ect..Due to the equality and trust,the king considers Lionel as his friend,and shares what he has experienced when he was a child and his fear of his father and brother.So that Lionel gives the king faith in his voice and makes him believe in himself through communication with the king and stimulation by siting on Saint Edward`s chair. Therefore,the king can have courage to give a successful speech and becomes the symbol of nation resistence.
