The King's Speech

Following the scandalous abdication of his brother King Edward VIII, Bertie — who has suffered from a debilitating speech impediment all his life — is suddenly crowned King George VI of the United Kingdom. With his country on the brink of war and in desperate need of a leader, his wife Elizabeth seeks out the help of eccentric speech therapist, Lionel Logue. Based on the true story of King George VI, "The King's Speech" is the inspirational tale of one man's quest to find his voice.
