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.

WINSTON CHURCHILL Only the vulgar ones.
Churchill pours two nips of whiskey into metal cups nested in a hip flask.
WINSTON CHURCHILL (CONT'D) To our new King.
COSMO LANG: Let's sincerely hope.
They look at each other in silence.
WINSTON CHURCHILL Is this a `slightly pregnant pause'?
TKS/Seidler/09/17/08 91.
COSMO LANG: They say he is dim.
WINSTON CHURCHILL Demonstrably untrue.
COSMO LANG: They say he has epilepsy.
WINSTON CHURCHILL Patently erroneous.
COSMO LANG: Fragile, prone to illness... WINSTON CHURCHILL Some correctness in that.
COSMO LANG: ...and will die prematurely. They predict he'll be unable to complete the Coronation.
WINSTON CHURCHILL What do you propose? Shorten the ceremony?
Or no ceremony at all?
COSMO LANG: My idea exactly!
WINSTON CHURCHILL I believed so. But what we need is a pageant of pomp and pomposity to impress the world.
COSMO LANG: What we need, and what we'll get, may be two rather different things. Did you hear his pathetic attempt at the Accession Council? He'll never be able to speak in public.
WINSTON CHURCHILL So, we plonk a tinsel crown on his head and lock him in a closet? Who then will spiritually lead this great nation into war? Who will address the far flung corners of the Empire, rallying all to our defense?
COSMO LANG: Well... WINSTON CHURCHILL The Head of our Church? Is that what you have in mind?
TKS/Seidler/09/17/08 92.
COSMO LANG: Would it be such a calamity?
WINSTON CHURCHILL Best ask our new King.
Bertie has entered with Logue. Lang spins around.
COSMO LANG: Your Majesty.
