The King’s Speech

Peter E.
Recently, The King’s Speech has amazed crowds everywhere.  This fantastic film is about King George VI of England,  He was born with a who stuttered and endured this  challenge all his life.  Although he
was not first in line to be king, he  ended up replacing his brother, Edward, who abdicated.  As King, George had to make many speeches to the general public especially in a time of war.  His stutter made this very difficult.  Although reluctant to do so, King George employed a speech therapist to help him.  This movie is the story of his struggles learning to speak without a stutter.  It is filled with inspiration, suspense, romance, history, and strong bonds of friendship.
