Although the poster of The King's Speech is ugly, the whole film exudes a traditional charm of "Made in Britain". The king's speech is like the queen this year. The British team created and told the story of the British royal family, which was deeply loved by the college. Even the temperament of the film is somewhat similar. What really connects them may be the blood relationship between the protagonists in these two films in real life-King George VI is the biological father of Queen Elizabeth II.
The costumes of The King's Speech restored the film to the 1920s and 1930s. Industrialized Britain gradually declined because of the untimely system, and was overtaken by Germany and the United States. George VI (played by Colin Firth) ascended the throne under such an embarrassing background, which was somewhat helpless. 1925 Closing speech of "Exhibition of British Empire" held at Wembley, because it was Prince Albert's stuttering that made him make a fool of himself. Since then, his wife (played by helena bonham carter) has been helping her husband find an excellent speech therapist. Until we find Leonard Rogge, an Australian-born speech therapist in Geoffrey Rush. After his father George V died in 1936, Albert (later George VI, also known as Bertie-family nickname) should have succeeded him, but his younger brother Edward VIII loved beauty and chose to abdicate, becoming the king who abdicated before being crowned in British history. The burden fell on Albert who didn't want to be king. The most helpless and embarrassing thing is that George VI stuttered. Based on history, the film focuses on the friendship between George VI and speech therapist Rogge, and George VI's efforts to overcome stuttering.
It can be said responsibly that following the excellent performance of "The Single Man Who Lost His Husband" last year, Colin Firth once again brought a superb performance that made people applaud. First of all, everyone is concerned about playing the stuttering king. While everyone is trying their best to pronounce words, the audience can clearly hear the sound of consonants that want to speak but are bound by invisible forces. Not only that, Colin supplemented by his real expressions and movements, just like the upper body of stuttering George VI. When he speaks, he can't help but make the audience feel that his tongue suddenly becomes turbid and difficult to understand, which is definitely a very shocking sense of bringing in. Secondly, Colin is also first-class in dealing with the subtle aspects of George VI's emotions. The trouble of stuttering drove him to contact the speech therapist Rogge, and his love for his wife and daughter may be the power for him to communicate with them quite smoothly. The death of his father George V and the abdication of his brother Edward VIII undoubtedly had an impact on him. On the one hand, the death of George V made him feel sad, on the other hand, it was actually a kind of relaxation and relief to pass on to his brother. At least Prince Albert didn't want to be king at that time, and stuttering has always been his heart disease. Colin Firth is very pure. When he learned that Edward VIII was going to abdicate and give way to him, his anger and worry about eating his food were perfectly displayed by Colin. After he became king, his two little daughters immediately renamed their father Your Majesty, and that moment's dullness was definitely a feeling of internal organs. That scene even saw the coronation of Oscar.
Colin Firth's George VI is a slightly introverted character, but he is an extroverted character in performance. In contrast, the speech therapist Roger played by Jeffery Rush is a confident but introverted character. He spoke with a sense of humor and regarded Bertie as a friend from the beginning. He also has a way to make Bertie open her heart to him and face difficulties. Rogge kept encouraging Bertie in words. In fact, he sincerely hopes Bertie can get out of trouble, not just stuttering. Jeffrey Rush is strong enough to say his inner lines through his words and deeds. In fact, it is not easy for such an introverted and calm role.
Helena bonham carter's wife plays a little less, and her character is relatively thin. However, Helena is like the woman behind a successful man, not only in movie stories, but also on the road to Oscar. In the play, her care and love for her husband are vividly reflected; Outside the play, the king's speech would not be complete without her wonderful performance.
The screenwriter of this film grasps the story very succinctly, and adds some pleasant humorous jam to the characters' language, so that the serious tone of the king's speech will not be dull and lifeless, which can be regarded as the catalyst of this film. As mentioned above, this film is similar to The Queen, and it does have a sense of exquisiteness similar to that of an English drama. The story is concise but not simple, and the climax is just right. In addition, the soundtrack of this film was also created by alexandre desplat, a Frenchman, and several concertos by Mozart and Beethoven were the icing on the cake.
Director tom hopper's last film "Damn United" won him a lot of praise, and I believe "The King's Speech" will bring him more glory. Warning: A luxury royal carriage is coming to Oscar!
