The King's Speech: A triumph

Totally worth the pain it inflicted. It is really hard for me to see someone struggle to articulate their thoughts… whether it is due to a social awkwardness or a physical/mental handicap. I must tip my hat to Colin Firth for turning an awful experience like speech therapy into a pleasant journey of a man becoming a king. And Helen Bonham-Carter’s portrayal of the Queen Mum made me wish she was my mother. Or that I was British. Though that's just me... my friend who I saw it with commented that "it was definitely for old people. Like, I'd take my grandma to go see that."
Verdict: Pay the full price (Worthy investment)
