The story of King George VI of Britain played by the very talented Colin Firth,
his impromptu ascension to the throne and his speech therapist (played by the very dynamic actor Geoffrey Rush) who helped the unsure monarch become worthy of it.
A 2010 release this drama won David Seidler, at age 73 the oldest person to ever win the Best Original Screenplay Academy Award (Oscar)
I am Inspired
Life IS...for everyone. A beautiful story aligned with the genuine on-goings in the Royal Kingdom.
This four time Oscar winner inspires me to live fearlessly even with my 'flaws'.
Trivia: While preparing the film, the production knew that having some key cast would help the movie get made so the team took the highly unusual step of getting someone who lived near actor Geoffrey Rush (speech therapist in the movie)to post the script through his letterbox.
Although against industry practice, it did have a covering note apologizing for the unsolicited delivery and explained that they were desperate for him to know the script existed. The actor read the script and agreed to do the film.
