As wonderful as everyone else has said

Rating: 10/10 (2 April 2011)

First of all, I have read 2 or 3 biographies of George VI and was a little leery of the film. HOWEVER, the movie was so faithful to so many aspects of his life that I was very impressed. In fact, I was blown away. The script even worked in the fact that Elizabeth did, indeed, turn George (Bertie) down twice before she finally accepted his marriage proposal.
And the script brilliantly worked in when and why George's stuttering began, which is based on fact. And film emphasized how totally he was in his brother's, the Prince of Wales' shadow. And it brought out how literally besotted David was with Wallis Simpson. And how his heritage was tossed away to be with her.
Every cast member was simply wonderful, or 'spot-on'. Bonham-Carter was simply wonderful and believable. You could truly feel her love and devotion to George. Will have to buy this one to watch over again. Truly the only thing I can say against it is that Geoffrey Rush didn't receive the "Best Supporting" award. He was so great.
