I love movies! And I love when the movies take a historical event. Because then it is exciting, and engaging. You get a sense of what that event was all about! How people felt, and what they went through! There is a huge differenc reading about an event, and watching it! A great historical movie is The King's Speech. It came out a few years ago, and I was blown away! It was the best movie I had seen in a long time! I think I saw it three times at the theater - It was that good! I knew it would win Oscars. Colin Firth who plays the King won Best Actor! And it was so deserved.
The King's Speech follows the King of England during WWII. He must inspire his country at a horrible time, but there is a problem. The King of England has a horrible stutter. Radio has been invented, and all of his advisors want him to address the nation. But he can't, and it is painful to watch! So he hires a speech therapist to help him. The relationship he develops with the therapist is so much fun to watch. It is an outstandiing movie! Rent it today!
The real King
One of my favorite movies also.
