The movie is based on the true story of King George VI and how he battled his speech challenges. It was not a "feel good" Hollywood film which usually is phony . It is focuses on the two main characters, Bertie(King George VI) and Lionel Logue, Bertie's speech therapistand goes through their challenges and overcoming it. Wonderful performances by Geoffrey Rush and Colin Firth. It is dramatic and humorous at the same time. You can feel the perseverance of both of the main characters. A movie among the tripe out there worth plucking down the admission price.
