The King's Speech Review

If you are wondering why this movie won best picture along with other three other Oscars then you have not yet seen it.  The movie is about King George VI becoming king and his problems with his speech.  He is second in line to become the King of England, his brother is above him.  At the beginning of the movie he begins by stammering on a speech.  You clearly get to see the problems he has when he speaks.  His speech problem is not stage fright because it even happens when he tells his daughter's stories.  His wife (Bellatrix from the movie series of Harry Potter) tries to find a solution for her husband.  One attempt is holding marbles in his mouth and trying to speak (a doctor suggests this).  After this falls George goes to a different doctor where the story of friendship begins.  His new speech therapist has many exercises for George to perform.  It gives you goosebumps the first time you are watching it and the king realize that the doctor was right about the music (watch it and you will know what I mean).  Later in the movie George's brother decided to give up the throne of England so he can marry a divorce United States woman that still has husbands living (this is against the Church of England).  George then becomes the kind of England and is fear of having to talk publicly becomes reality.  Before when he was duke he does not have to speak on such of a global scale.  Know that he has become king he will know have to give many more speeches.  The Kings Speech gets its name from speech George address to the public.  Thanks to his practice with his new founded friend the speech therapist, he succeeds in giving the speech without stammering (except for once; so that the audience knows it was really him giving the speech).  If give this Oscar winning picture a 93%
