杰瑞发布于2023-12-03

England's Prince Albert (Colin Firth) must ascend the throne as King George VI, but he has a speech impediment. Knowing that the country needs her husband to be able to communicate effectively, Elizabeth (Helena Bonham Carter) hires Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush), an Australian actor and speech therapist, to help him overcome his stammer. An extraordinary friendship develops between the two men, as Logue uses unconventional means to teach the monarch how to speak with confidence.

BERTIE (CONT'D) Wouldn't it be a good idea to find out before coming to me? He cannot be Mister, as he was born the son of a Duke. Which makes him a Lord at the very least.
WINSTON CHURCHILL Very well, Lord E.W. it is.
BERTIE:
And as a Lord of the realm, he's entitled to be elected to the House of Commons.
Heading a King's Party.
COSMO LANG: Unacceptable!
BERTIE:
So you prefer he takes a seat in the House of Lords? Again, on behalf of a King's Party? Is that acceptable?
WINSTON CHURCHILL Certainly not.
BERTIE:
But if he's made a Royal Duke, and called His Royal Highness, he cannot stand for Parliament. Nor may he speak or vote in the House of Lords.
COSMO LANG: (realizing) Oh I say...
BERTIE:
The Duke of Windsor it is. Gentlemen.
He exits abruptly.
Churchill and Lang gather their things stunned.
TKS/Seidler/09/17/08 82.
WINSTON CHURCHILL Not exactly a dummy, is he?
76 EXT. FACADE OF D.HENRY LTD. LEATHERGOODS, KNIGHTSBRIDGE - DAY 76 Myrtle is in the shop window, arranging handbags, luggage, and briefcases.
77 INT. D.HENRY LTD. - CONTINUOUS 77 In the store Myrtle can be seen dressing the window, while in his glass office the OWNER, a portly bald gentleman with a Dickensian air, is deep in concerned conversation with a man in trench-coat. The Owner keeps glancing worriedly in Myrtle's direction.
The two men nod, shake hands. The fellow in the trench-coat leaves. The owner beckons another shop-girl over and whispers something to her. She heads towards Myrtle.
BERTIE (O. S.) "Let's go gathering hearty heather with the gay brigade of grand dragons." 78 INT. LOGUE'S STUDY AND PARLOUR - DAY 78 A wall divides the study from the living area, allowing the action in both spaces to be viewed.
IN THE PARLOUR: Elizabeth waits, ill at ease.
IN THE STUDY:
LIONEL:
Splendid. Here's another. "She sifted seven thick-stalked thistles through strong thick sieves." At home, twenty-five times, in rapid succession.
BERTIE:
Those are my hardest sounds.
Lionel gives him a look.
BERTIE (CONT'D) Oh.
LIONEL:
Shall we invite your wife in now?
