Quite remarkable

Rating: 10/10 (15 February 2011)

This Movie exemplifies how well the Brits. do history, in that their attention to detail is quite remarkable in visuals, characters,etc. The story of the King's problem was known by some, but this film brilliantly depicts the long hard journey he had to follow to overcome his disability. The acting by Colin Firth ensures an Oscar, while Geoffrey Rush was outstanding in a role that stretched his ability to represent the original Mr. Logue. Characters of the time like Churchill, King George V, Chamberlain, etc were truly captured, and it would be unfair not to mention Guy Pearce in the unsympathetic role of Edward VIII. In summing up, one can only rate this film very clearly the best of the Year.
