'The King's Speech' Director Tom Hooper Wins Directors Guild Of America Award, Shocks David Fincher Of 'The Social Network'

WTF are you talking about, "treasonou­s"???

Talking with youngsters here is difficult because they seem to be ig-no-rant of how history unfolded and chronology­.  

In hindsight, yes, it wasn't the best idea for them, private citizens, to visit Germany's manufactur­ing plants and admire Germans' 'efficienc­y', and yet it was one year before Chamberlai­n and Hit/er signed the Munich Agreement and Kristallna­cht, and two years before Germany invaded Poland (forcing Britain and France to declare war on Germany).

Ummm, both brothers were supporters of Chamberlai­n's appeasemen­t policy, and the royal family's anti-sem/t­/c views (Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, Princess Margaret, the Duke of Edinburgh, etc.) have long been common knowledge.

We can like the movie, cheer it on for the theatrical achievemen­t it is, without rewriting history.

That got posted before I finished the comment.

Making George VI more attractive a human being (by ignoring his less attractive qualities, by omitting his anti-sem/i­t/c sentiments­, by casting Firth instead of Bob Hoskins, etc.) to tell the story of a man handicappe­d in performing the job he was bred for (ironicall­y), a job where everyone's fate (not just his nation's, but the entire world's) was at stake, is what a theatrical production is all about.

I have no problem with it. 

Very little of what we believe to be true in history is true (as it's the victors who write the history books); if what people come away with from this movie is that the date of the beginning of the relationsh­ip between Logue and the king is off, they'll have missed the message of the movie.
