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.

BALDWIN (CONT'D) Australia: no.
WINSTON CHURCHILL David feels there aren't that many people in Australia.
BALDWIN:
Canada:
no. Union of South Africa:an inappropriate marriage would create a permanent wound. The Irish Free State: states it is not really their affair, and, bluntly, our English King may marry any whore he wants, they'll be well out of it.
WINSTON CHURCHILL Bloody Irish.
BALDWIN:
New Zealand...wavers.
WINSTON CHURCHILL Ah, the Kiwis!
BALDWIN:
Being rather remote, they've not even heard of Mrs Simpson. Hardly a winning hand.
Silence.
BALDWIN (CONT'D) This is not about true love, Winston. This is about who's in charge. Does the King do what he wants, or what his people want him to do? Does the King own his nation, or does the nation own their Monarch?
WINSTON CHURCHILL He won't budge.
BALDWIN:
Nor will we.
63 INT. PLAYROOM, YORK HOUSE - NIGHT 63 Winston Churchill is incongruously inspecting a rocking horse.
Unable to resist, he sits on it gingerly, rocking back and forth lost in a reverie. Eyes closed he extends his right arm as though holding a cavalry saber. Bertie enters startling him.
BERTIE:
Don't dismount.
TKS/Seidler/09/17/08 72.
WINSTON CHURCHILL Good of you to see me at this late hour.
BERTIE:
Thought you were in David's camp?
WINSTON CHURCHILL I was.
(takes a piece of paper from his pocket and reads) "I am now free to tell you how I was jockeyed out of the Throne."
BERTIE:
Good Lord! My brother wrote that?
WINSTON CHURCHILL Wallis wrote it for him. I'll burn it. I fear your brother is like the child in a fairy story, given everything in the world, but they forgot his soul. Quite happy to bring his nation to the brink of civil war just as we face global conflict.
BERTIE:
We're not coming to that?!
WINSTON CHURCHILL Oh, there'll be war, alright.
