DESCRIBE

 

[uamaverick]

It's a movie about King George VI of England and how he had a speech impediment and formed a friendship with his speech therapist. Has an 8.6 on IMDB right now, which is about as high of a rating as you're gonna get there.

Are there doods running around with swords? Those are the only kinds of movies I watch.

No action at all, but the film is well edited that it never slows down or turns uninteresting. It's strictly a drama film, but it keeps you entertained the whole way through.

Does he at least wear a crown and have cool armor and stuff?

I watched the new Robin Hood movie. It was decent.

LOL King George VI reigned in the 1930s and 1940s during WWII, so no crowns and swords.

If I were a king, even nowadays, I'd totally be decked out in halfplate armor with a sword.

This movie sounds familiar... I want to say I heard something like this on NPR or something, but didn't know it was a movie.

I liked the movie but I don't think it would be possible for it to slow down.

English dramas are always slow plodding affairs; like "Howard's End" (I liked that one too).
