国王的演讲 The King's Speech Movie Script

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.

LIONEL:
Johnson, isn't it? Have you an appointment?
BERTIE:
Want me to beg?
LIONEL:
I told you, Kings don't beg.
BERTIE:
I believe this time a bit of begging might be required. Elizabeth says I must eat humble crow.
LIONEL:
Its "crow" or "humble pie". Take your pick.

BERTIE:
(gathering resolve) I was frightened and took refuge in being `Royal'. What I said was unforgivable.
And...
LIONEL:
And?
BERTIE:
(blurts out) What's the one essential thing a King must do? He must believe he is King. How can I possibly do that? For pity sake, Lionel, I
beg you:
get me through! I'll pay you another shilling.
LIONEL:
What're friends for?
Logue steps aside, letting Bertie in.
BERTIE:
I wouldn't know.
74 INT. LOGUE BEDROOM - NIGHT 74 The double bed is piled high with clothing, a suitcase at its foot. Myrtle is sorting. She hears Lionel enter behind her. At first, she doesn't turn. Lionel remains silent.
MYRTLE:
I've got the boys sorting their things.
Your office will be a chore... Realizing something is amiss, she turns, and knows instantly what Lionel's going to tell her. Her hand goes to her mouth to stifle her emotions.
75 INT. BERTIE'S STUDY - DAY 75 Bertie is with visitors: Churchill and Lang. There's a slight but discernible change in his demeanor.
COSMO LANG: We asked to see Your Highness because there's the urgent question of what to call your brother. Aside from the obvious.
Bertie is not pleased with His Grace's joke, but lets it pass.

BERTIE:
What do you suggest?
COSMO LANG: Mr. Edward Windsor? All he deserves.
BERTIE:
What has my brother given up on his abdication, other than the throne?
They look at each other, unsure.
