Summary : The Speech of the king
This is the summary about the movie directed Tom Hopper , and the movie was publicated in 2010
Summary:
this movie is about Britain's King George VI and his lifelong
struggle to overcome his speech impediment. Suffering from a stammer from the
age of 4 or 5, the young Prince Albert dreaded any public speaking engagement.
History records that his speech at the closing of the 1925 Commonwealth
exhibition in London was difficult for both him and everyone listening that
day. He tried many different therapies over many years but it was only when he
met Lionel Logue, a speech therapist, that he truly began to make progress.
Logue did not have a medical degree but had worked as an elocution coach in the
theater and had worked with shell-shocked soldiers after World War I. Through a
variety of techniques and much hard work, Albert learns to speak in such a way
so as to make his impediment a minor problem and deliver a faultless speech
heard around the world by radio when the UK declared war on Nazi Germany in
1939. The King and Logue remained lifelong friends.
