Director: Tom Hooper
Cast: Colin Firth, Helena Bonham Carter, Geoffrey Rush
Genre: Drama, Biography
Plot: Real life story of King George the VI and his battle with speech deformity.
Incredible performance by entire cast. The chemistry between King George 'Bertie' (Colin Firth) and his ahead-of-time Australian speech therapist Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush) is backbone of the movie.
The development of friendship between a 'Royal' and a somewhat 'Rogue' has been captured immaculately, their ups and down, the Royal snob, common man's perseverance--it is all perfection personified.
Indeed a high point for cinema in terms of direction.
8/10
