The King's Speech

The King's Speech
Directed by Tom Hooper

Keep trying; keep failing. The hope of wishing to solve stammer problem from the bottom of the king's heart supports him not to give up. I am touched not only by his strength, but also the weakness and fear. To honestly accept and live with the defect of being a stammerer is one of the thing that I admire.

The unorthodox speech therapist's unconventional ways of instructing create deep profundity. I pondered long over the relationship between the king and the therapist and also the therapist himself. It is the differences, no matter the instructing, the personals, the fears or the hope etc., that generate this splendid plot. "What if he doesn't want to be a king" this dialogue has struck me that how I take things for granted and how often I miss the opposite point of view.

The doubt of if he is capable to be a king is thought-provoking. With the same hesitation, he still stepped toward to the king's road. A road with fear, but wider.
