This movie was skillfully acted and the narrative was effectively told with both humor and poignancy. I went to see Colin Firth, whom I believe is a great actor, but I was also impressed with all other actors in the movie. I also enjoyed the narrative--it's not only the story of how George VI overcomes his stammer but also about a developing friendship. Not having known this aspect of history I learned something new and was also entertained. I highly recommend seeing this film!!
