The King's Speech

I just finished watching movie The King's Speech and I'm truely inspired by it. I give two thumbs for the movie and surely it's worthy to watch. The movie was based on the true story of how the future king of British Empire, King George VI ascended the throne unprepared after the death of his father, George V and scandalous abdication of his brother Edward VIII. George VI who suffered from  debilitating speech impediment all his life, has to steer his nation and empire from collapsing as the World War II is taking place in British soil. Desperate and in pressure, George VI wife, Elizabeth seek the help of an eccentric speech therapist, Lionel Logue to help the despair king. Despite all the difficulties that both the king and Lionel faced, Geoge VI managed to overcome his stammer and became the symbol that unite the nation during wartime.        



The King's Speech won seven British Academy Awards and four Academy Awards. This is a film worth talking about. It truely raised my spirit to overcome difficulties in life.

Enjoy Watching!!!!
