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


The relationsh­ip between the king and the speech therapist began about a decade earlier than depicted in the movie is, IMHO, the most relevant one.  It relates to the king's motivation for wanting/ne­eding to overcome his stammer.  The movie also has the king (and his wife) more attractive (political­ly) than history has judged them (in real life, they Nod-see-ap­peasers, if not outright anti-sem/t­es).  George was not considered as the brightest crayon in the box, if you know what I mean, but just the casting of Colin Firth added a good 50 points to his IQ.

But people need to remember that it's not a documentar­y; it's a theatrical production­.
