About this product

Product Information

Emmy Award-winning director Tom Hooper (THE DAMNED UNITED) teams with screenwriter David Seidler (TUCKER: THE MAN AND HIS DREAM) to tell the story of King George VI. When his older brother abdicates the throne, nervous-mannered successor George Bertie VI (Colin Firth) reluctantly dons the crown. Though his stutter soon raises concerns about his leadership skills, King George VI eventually comes into his own with the help of unconventional speech therapist Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush). Before long the king and Lionel have forged an unlikely bond, a bond that proves to have real strength when the United Kingdom is forced to flex its international might.

ReviewsThe Sun - This is a stunning piece of cinema and a perfect, feel-good start to the New Year., Guardian UK - Tom Hooper's richly enjoyable and handsomely produced movie about George VI's struggle to cure his stammer is a massively confident crowd-pleaser., Daily Mail - The rumours are completely true. The superlatives are completely justified. Colin Firth really does give the performance of his life as the Queen's father, George VI., New Of The World - Colin Firth's made an amazing film by being a stuttering, upper-class English gent? Hugh Grant must be bloody kicking himself., Los-Angeles Times - Both actors completely inhabit their absorbing roles, relishing the opportunity their exchanges provide and adding unlooked-for layers to a complicated human relationship.

  • The Kings speech

    No wonder it won so many oscars, King George must have been a remarkable man, To overcome speech difficulties in order to speak to millions must have been very difficult. I thought the film was well cast, and the characters were very engaging , Helena Bonham Carter portrayed the Queen Mother brilliantly Great viewing !!
