King George must ascend the throne and offer his country a strong voice of authority in its’ most troubled hour. The problem is that he stutters horribly and has a confidence that is equally fractured. He meets an unconventional Australian actor that he believes is a medically trained speech therapist. His unorthodox methods not only restore the King’s voice but his confidence as well in just the nick of time. Lots of language peppers this rated R film, but the relationship between Lionel the therapist and King George is powerful. The King’s journey is truly inspiring. Love this film.
