杰瑞发布于03 Dec 15:58

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.

LIONEL:
I don't understand.
BERTIE:
"Mausoleum Day". Prince Albert departed on that date. I was named Bertie to placate Great Grandmamma Victoria. In return, she hated me because it reminded her of her grief.

BERTIE (CONT'D) Let's stick to medical history please. I'm naturally left handed, which was considered inappropriate.
LIONEL:
And?
BERTIE:
I was punished. Now I'm right handed.
LIONEL:
Anything else?
BERTIE:
Bandy legs. Also considered inappropriate.
Lionel waits.
BERTIE (CONT'D) Metal splints were made...worn night and day...very painful. Now I have straight legs. This is so...tawdry! I need your services as a Speech Therapist, not Grand Inquisitor. Are you available? Or will it
be:
"Myrtle says no?"
LIONEL:
You sound angry.
BERTIE:
Yes, I told you, I have a temper.
LIONEL:
Angry at me, or at your brother?
Bertie remains stubbornly silent. Then blurts:
BERTIE:
He's fallen in love!
LIONEL:
How dreadful.
BERTIE:
With the wrong sort of woman!
LIONEL:
What's wrong with her?
BERTIE:
She's American.
LIONEL:
Some of them must be lovable.

BERTIE:
This one's divorced. Twice. Mrs Wallis Simpson of Baltimore. I want David to be happy, but the family, the Church, the nation, won't have it.
LIONEL:
Can't they fornicate privately like adults?
BERTIE:
If only! David used to prefer married women because there was no possible attachment.
