• Trivia Nine weeks before filming began, Lionel Logue's grandson, Mark Logue , discovered a large box in his attic that contained his grandfather's personal papers. The box held Lionel Logue's diary, his appointment book, notes from his speech therapy sessions with King George VI , and over 100 personal letters to Logue from the King. It also contained what is believed to be the actual copy of the speech used by George VI in his 1939 radio broadcast announcing the declaration of war with Germany. Mark Logue turned his grandfather's papers, letters, and diary over to director Tom Hooper and screenwriter David Seidler , who used them to flesh out the relationship between Logue and the King. Geoffrey Rush and Colin Firth also read through the material for insight into their characters. The exchange in this movie between Logue and King George VI following his radio speech ("You still stammered on the 'W'." / "Well, I had to throw in a few so they knew it was me.") was taken directly from Logue's diary. Firth insisted that it should be included in the movie.
• Goofs In the final speech, King George VI has one blue eye and one brown eye. Colin Firth had lost a contact lens.

King George VI : All that... work... down the drain. My own... b... brother, I couldn't say a single w-word to him in reply.

Lionel Logue : Why do you stammer so much more with David than you ever do with me?

King George VI : 'Cos you're b... bloody well paid to listen.

Lionel Logue : Bertie, I'm not a geisha girl.

King George VI : Stop trying to be so bloody clever.

Lionel Logue : What is it about David that stops you speaking?

King George VI : What is it about you that bloody well makes you want to go on about it the whole bloody time?

Lionel Logue : Vulgar, but fluent; you don't stammer when you swear.

King George VI : Oh, bugger off!

Lionel Logue : Is that the best you can do?

King George VI : [like an elocution lesson] Well... bloody bugger to you, you beastly bastard.

Lionel Logue : Oh, a public school prig could do better than that.

King George VI : Shit. Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit!

Lionel Logue : Yes!

King George VI : Shit!

Lionel Logue : Defecation flows trippingly from the tongue!

King George VI : Because I'm angry!

Lionel Logue : Do you know the f-word?

King George VI : F... f... fornication?

Lionel Logue : Oh, Bertie.

King George VI : Fuck. Fuck! Fuck, fuck, fuck and fuck! Fuck, fuck and bugger! Bugger, bugger, buggerty buggerty buggerty, fuck, fuck, arse!

Lionel Logue : Yes...

King George VI : Balls, balls...

Lionel Logue : ...you see, not a hesitation!

King George VI : ...fuckity, shit, shit, fuck and willy. Willy, shit and fuck and... tits.

"The King's Speech" tells the story of a man compelled to speak to the world with a stammer. It must be painful enough for one who stammers to speak to another person. To face a radio microphone and know the British Empire is listening must be terrifying. At the time of the speech mentioned in this title, a quarter of the Earth's population was in the Empire, and of course much of North America, Europe, Africa and Asia would be listening — and with particular attention, Germany.

The king was George VI. The year was 1939. Britain was entering into war with Germany. His listeners required firmness, clarity and resolve, not stammers punctuated with tortured silences. This was a man who never wanted to be king. After the death of his father, the throne was to pass to his brother Edward. But Edward renounced the throne "in order to marry the woman I love," and the duty fell to Prince Albert, who had struggled with his speech from an early age.

In "The King's Speech," director Tom Hooper opens on Albert ( Colin Firth ), attempting to open the British Empire Exhibition in 1925. Before a crowded arena and a radio audience, he seizes up in agony in efforts to make the words come out right. His father, George V ( Michael Gambon ), has always considered "Bertie" superior to Edward ( Guy Pearce ), but mourns the introduction of radio and newsreels, which require a monarch to be seen and heard on public occasions.

At that 1925 speech, we see Bertie's wife, Elizabeth (Helena Bonham Carter), her face filled with sympathy. As it becomes clear that Edward's obsession with Wallis Simpson (Eve Best) is incurable, she realizes her Bertie may face more public humiliation. He sees various speech therapists, one of whom tries the old marbles-in-the-mouth routine first recommended by Demosthenes. Nothing works, and then she seeks out a failed Australian actor named Lionel Logue ( Geoffrey Rush ), who has set up a speech therapy practice.

Logue doesn't realize at first who is consulting him. And one of the subjects of the film is Logue's attitude toward royalty, which I suspect is not untypical of Australians; he suggests to Albert that they get on a first-name basis. Albert has been raised within the bell jar of the monarchy and objects to such treatment, not because he has an elevated opinion of himself but because, well, it just isn't done. But Logue realizes that if he is to become the king's therapist, he must first become his friend.

If the British monarchy is good for nothing else, it's superb at producing the subjects of films. "The King's Speech," rich in period detail and meticulous class distinctions, largely sidesteps the story that loomed over this whole period, Edward's startling decision to give up the crown to marry a woman who was already divorced three times. Indeed, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor (as they became) would occupy an inexplicable volume of attention for years, considering they had no significance after the Duke's abdication. The unsavory thing is that Wallis Simpson considered herself worthy of such a sacrifice from the man she allegedly loved. This film finds a more interesting story about better people; Americans, who aren't always expert on British royalty, may not necessarily realize that Albert and wife Elizabeth were the parents of Queen Elizabeth II. God knows what Edward might have fathered.

Director Tom Hooper makes an interesting decision with his sets and visuals. The movie is largely shot in interiors, and most of those spaces are long and narrow. That's unusual in historical dramas, which emphasize sweep and majesty and so on. Here we have long corridors, a deep and narrow master control room for the BBC, rooms that seem peculiarly oblong. I suspect he may be evoking the narrow, constricting walls of Albert's throat as he struggles to get words out.

The film largely involves the actors Colin Firth, formal and decent, and Geoffrey Rush, large and expansive, in psychological struggle. Helena Bonham Carter, who can be merciless (as in the "Harry Potter" films), is here filled with mercy, tact and love for her husband; this is the woman who became the much-loved Queen Mother of our lifetimes, dying in 2002 at 101. As the men have a struggle of wills, she tries to smooth things (and raise her girls Elizabeth and Margaret). And in the wider sphere, Hitler takes power, war comes closer, Mrs. Simpson wreaks havoc, and the dreaded day approaches when Bertie, as George VI, will have to speak to the world and declare war.

Hooper's handling of that fraught scene is masterful. Firth internalizes his tension and keeps the required stiff upper lip, but his staff and household are terrified on his behalf as he marches toward a microphone as if it is a guillotine. It is the one scene in the film that must work, and it does, and its emotional impact is surprisingly strong. At the end, what we have here is a superior historical drama and a powerful personal one. And two opposites who remain friends for the rest of their lives.

Note: The R rating refers to Logue's use of vulgarity. It is utterly inexplicable. This is an excellent film for teenagers.

Why has there been such hate for The King’s Speech over the years?

When it first came out, people were praising it to no end and that’s why it won so much awards and stuff. Then as the years went by people have been hating on it saying it’s one of the worst Best Picture winners since Crash, like what? Like I know there were better movies that came out in 2010 that deserved to win Best Picture more such as The Social Network, Inception and Black Swan (my favorite movie that year was Toy Story 3) and I know I said in a previous post that Inception should’ve won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay over The King’s Speech, The King’s Speech wasn’t a bad choice to win Best Picture. The movie looks great in terms of the way that it was shot, the sets and costumes were great and Colin Firth carried the entire film with his tremendous performance as King George VI and I loved his heartwarming chemistry with Lionel Logue.

Does the hate have to do with the possibility of Harvey Weinstein rigging votes for it to win because he was an executive producer on the movie? Like I know Shakespeare in Love wasn’t deserving of Best Picture over Saving Private Ryan, but The King’s Speech was way better than Shakespeare in Love.

The King’s Speech

Review by brian eggert december 27, 2010.

Long before Richard Nixon’s sweaty upper lip lost him a televised debate against John Kennedy’s good looks, it was possible for the likes of the morbidly obese William Howard Taft to be elected president. The invention of the television, and before that the radio, transformed becoming a leader into a performance art requiring not only political insight but the composed oration skills and appearance of a Hollywood actor. Since the onset of worldwide broadcasting, politicians have played their roles for the camera, and in some cases, it becomes not what they’re saying but how well and how good they look saying it.

Telling a story about the beginning of this transition, from leaders who exist by authority to those who must be showmen, The King’s Speech is deceptive in its simplicity. Though heavy with political and historical implications, the narrative is reduced to a human drama with broad appeal. The result could be compared to a sports movie, in that the film involves one man’s perseverance and ultimate triumph over his failings, and employs all the typical formulas in the process. Indeed, it comes from Tom Hooper, director of the British soccer film The Damned United , and both are stories about big goals saddled by intrapersonal conflicts.

The story begins in 1925, and the future of the British Royal Family remains in question. The failing health of King George V (Michael Gambon) leaves the eldest son, Prince Edward (Guy Pearce), expected to ascend to the throne. But Edward couldn’t be less interested in such matters. Nevertheless, this leaves Prince Albert (Colin Firth), the Duke of York, who has no desire to become King, in the clear. During his few public speeches, Albert’s embarrassing stammer crippled any desire to advance toward Buckingham Palace. His wife Elizabeth (Helena Bonham Carter) has sought out every speech coach of credible value to help her husband, but none have succeeded in eliminating the stutter.

Enter Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush), an Australian speech therapist known for unorthodox, if unknown methods. As a last-ditch effort, Elizabeth employs Logue, who insists on being equals with his clients, royalty or otherwise. He calls the prince by his family name, “Bertie”,  and speaks to him no differently than he would anyone else—insisting that Bertie speak about his past to reveal the root of the impediment, which was brought about by some psychological obstacle. That obstacle becomes apparent in the mocking disdain of Bertie’s father and brother, the source of his inferiority complex. But as Edward decides to abandon the throne to marry the twice-divorced Wallis Simpson (Eve Best), Bertie must assume the crown and address his empire in the first of many wartime speeches.

What emerges is an unassuming costume piece that manages to dwarf the concerns of an empire with a stirring and funny human drama about friendship and personal bravery. The social expanse between Bertie and Logue disappears between them over time, as Logue becomes something Bertie has never had, an honest friend. It seems “feel-good” when put that way, but the film’s effortlessness is its best attribute. Hooper forgoes the need for ambitious royal scenery by simplifying the production to functional, modest interiors and carefully framed close-ups. Alexander Desplat’s score feels classical, but not extravagant. This isn’t a film about majesty, but about keeping in touch with humanity in the face of royal decorum. Several scenes involve Logue demystifying royal traditions to make Bertie comfortable with them. When Bertie finds Logue sitting on a throne, he tells him “You can’t sit there.” “Why not,” the self-assured Logue replies. “It’s just a chair.”

Hooper’s polish here is only matched by his exquisite casting, which represents one of the best ensembles in recent memory. Gambon and Pearce exhibit the kind of heart-stripped figures you’d expect to come from a monarchy. Bonham Carter displays impressive sympathy, despite playing mostly villainess roles in recent years. Derek Jacobi, who played the stammering protagonist in I, Claudius , makes a notably unsympathetic Archbishop Lang. Claire Bloom is regal as the king’s proud mother, Queen Mary. Timothy Spall’s rendition of Winston Churchill has one crossing their fingers for a future biopic. And Jennifer Ehle, who starred alongside Firth in the BBC miniseries Pride and Prejudice , captures the surprise of Myrtle Logue when she finds the king and queen in her home for tea.

Of course, the entire cast stands in the shadow of their two masterful leading men, who together make The King’s Speech a sort of buddy movie. Firth deserves the many accolades he’s received for his performance after inhabiting his character so fully that he simply becomes Bertie. Much of his role depends on the pronunciation of Bertie’s stammer, which, to someone with an ingrained fear of public speaking, feels tangible in its authenticity. But it’s more than prominent W’s and getting his throat caught up on certain words; Firth puts himself into the role in such a way that few actors can. At once, he exudes profound vulnerability and courage, while also communicating an emotionally wounded figure that we respect. Yet, setting up Bertie’s every breakthrough is Rush, whose hilarious, frank approach to his client brings the film’s most delightful moments. Like his costar, Rush shows both weakness and strength, resulting in transcendent humanity. Both men deserve all the awards that are no doubt coming to them.

Though criminally rated “R” in yet another nonsensical decision by the MPAA, The King’s Speech should be seen by everyone. The rating refers to multiple uses of the F-word that are never employed nastily, but rather within the context of Logue’s therapy. After all, it’s just a word; don’t let a few “fucks” prevent you or your teenagers from seeing one of the best films in the quite dull cinema year of 2010. This is a life-affirming picture about a complex friendship and personal conviction that’s as touching as it is inspiring, and it does all this without feeling cliché or typical. With its sense of personal drama inside a grander, global scope, Hooper’s film works in every way that it should and will leave audiences wanting to cheer for its warm heart.

The King’s Speech (2010)

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.

How historically accurate is the movie The King's Speech

In 2010, The King’s Speech won the Oscar for Best Picture and grossed over $414 million worldwide. It was an unlikely box office champion because it was based on a true story about King George VI of Britain (1895-1952) and an Australian speech therapist Lionel Logue (1880-1953). It shows how Logue helped the king overcome a crippling stammer and how this helped him lead his country during World War II. The movie was directed by Tom Hooper and written by David Seidler.

Before the movie began filming, the writer, Seidler, found Logue's journal and incorporated elements from the journal into the movie. However, despite this, the historical accuracy of the movie has been questioned and even widely criticized.

When does the King's Speech take place?

The King's Speech takes place mainly in the 1930s at a critical juncture for Britain and its Empire. The nation and its various dependencies had still not recovered from the ravages of World War or the Great Depression. Internationally, Hitler was in power in Germany, and many feared, correctly, that there would be another World War. [1] The rather bleak mood of the time is captured very well by the director. At this critical point in its history, the British Royal Family faced its crisis.

After George V's death, he was succeeded by his eldest son, who became Edward VII in 1936. Edward VII's reign was both brief and controversial. Edward wanted to marry a divorced American, Wallis Simpson. Marrying a divorced was unacceptable to many in Britain at this time as the King was also head of the Church of England. Divorce was socially unacceptable, and the Anglican Bishops and others denounced the idea of the monarch marrying a divorced woman.

However, there were some inaccuracies in the movie that troubled viewers. One of the scenes that caused the most controversy was when Sir Winston Churchill, the future leader of war-time Britain, supported the accession of George V. This scene misrepresented Churchill's view of Edward's abdication entirely. Churchill supported Edward VII (1894-1972) and believed that he should remain as king despite his marriage to Wallis Simpson. He was friendly with the abdicated king and remained a supporter. [3]

Unlike in the movie, Churchill did have grave doubts about the ability of George VI to carry out his Royal duties. He was not alone in the belief, and many others shared that view in the highest circles of the British government. Over time, he did come to accept the younger brother of Edward VII and came to respect him as an able monarch and leader . [4]

The King and his Stutter

The movie shows that his speech impediment was a result of his insecurity and shyness. [5] This was very much the case, and George VI did have a terrible stutter from childhood. The King’s Speech accurately shows the real problems caused by the future George VI and the entire Royal Family. In one scene at the opening of an exhibition celebrating the British Empire, George struggles with a speech and becomes visibly upset. The movie shows many senior officials and members of the Royal Family becoming gravely concerned about this. In the 1930a, when the movie is set, for the first-time, Royalty members were expected to speak in public and be effective communicators because of the growing importance of the mass media. [6]

When did Lionel Logue begin treating George VI?

Cooper’s movie relates how George had been seeking help all his life for his stammer, and he tried every technique and treatment available for the time, which is true. The 2010 motion picture does really capture the sense of desperation and anxiety that the future George VI had over his speech impediment. He is shown as going in desperation to the Australian Logue, and this is also correct. The therapist is shown as using innovative techniques to help George overcome his stammer, which is right. The Australian was an early pioneer in speech and language therapy, and he was an innovator. [7] The film shows Rush trying to instill more confidence in the Royal. He adopts several strategies, but none are shown to work.

How did Logue treat George VI's speech impediment?

What was the relationship between king george vi and lionel logue.

The movie shows that the two men began to become real friends over time, despite their differences. This was the case, and it appears that both men liked each other and even enjoyed each other’s company. The relationship between the British king and the Australian is very realistically shown, and they remained friends until the early death of George VI. The movie shows that Logue was present when George made important Radio broadcasts to the British Public. This was the case, but Logue continued to coach the king to speak in public for many years.

In the movie, Logue is shown when George VI pronounced that Britain was at war with Germany in September 1939 during a radio address to the nation. This is not correct, but the Australian did provide the king with notes on things where he should pause and breathe, and these were a real help in the most important speech the monarch ever made. Logue continued to coach the king for many years until about 1944.

Was George VI accurately portrayed in the King's Speech?

Colin Firth’s performance was widely praised. The British actor won the Academy Award for Best Actor. While Firth's performance was widely acclaimed, there were some concerns about how accurately he portrayed the monarch. In the main, Firth did manage to capture George VI and his character in the feature film. The British actor did correctly show that the monarch was a timid and insecure man who felt that he was not equal to his Royal duties, and this was something that greatly distressed him. [10]

This was the case, and the monarch became widely respected for his leadership and his calm dignity. However, the script tended to be overly sympathetic to George and avoided his character's rather unpleasant aspects. He was alleged to have both fits of anger and alleged acts of domestic violence. Those allegations have not been confirmed.

Helena Bonham Carter's performance was praised, and she does capture the personality of Queen Elizabeth (1900-2002). She was a very supportive wife and dedicated to her husband. She did not want him to become king because she feared what it would do to him. Her family, as shown in the feature film. [12] Geoffrey Rush played the character of the speech and language therapist Logue, and he presented him as a larger-than-life figure who was charismatic, and this was indeed the case. It is generally agreed that Rush really captured the personality of the acclaimed speech and language therapist.

How realistic is the King's Speech?
