The King's Speech (2010) - B-b-b-beautiful and a-a-a-amazing!

Rating: 10/10 (24 April 2011)

Director Tom Hooper's visionary masterpiece of the year, "The King's Speech", tells the true story of Prince Albert, who later becomes King George VI, portrayed brilliantly by Colin Firth, who has a major stuttering problem, and visits a various number of speech therapists, until he meets a speech therapist that will change his life forever, portrayed incredibly by Geoffrey Rush, one of my favorite cinema actors. With a heartwarming, and inspirational story, "The King's Speech" follows as a true, visionary piece of art. The cast ensemble is one of the best I have seen this year. Colin Firth delivers an Oscar-worthy performance, and stole the show in every scene he is in. Geoffrey Rush delivers perfection in his performance as Lionel Louge, and Helena Bonham Carter is super wonderful for her portrayal as Queen Elizabeth VI. David Seidler's script is charming and wonderful, Alexandre Desplat's music is excellent and cheerful, and the art design and costumes were pretty unique. Now, even though Tom Hooper's direction wasn't tracked that much, I do know that he has made a charming, whimsical movie. This is a wonderful portrait of a man learning to face his fears of a disability that could affect his personality of a ruler. This is a performance that totally deserves the Oscar for Best Actor. This is one of the most inspirational motion pictures in the history of cinema. "The King's Speech" is a wonderful masterpiece, and it's easily one of the best movies of the year. "The King's Speech", in my review, "Beautifully charming, and artfully honest."
