Review
King George VI was born in the age of the radio. Hitler
lives the same age. He had a good skill of speech and it made him to get big
power. British people had wanted the special speech made by King George VI for
their peace of mind. So, He had to speak in front of the audience and make a
good speech for them. However, his stuttering interrupted his work. Then he
started the lesson with Logue which is very strange. This film is the true
story of his struggle for the stuttering. You can feel the good relationship
between King George VI and Logue from this scene. Because we can guess that
before Logue made King George VI angry, he had known that King must get mad and
shout at him. He wanted King to realize his valiant voice. Actually, after
shouting, King got confidence and, successes the coronation. So, this scene is
very important and it makes our heart warm.
