EDIT: Was excellent. Everyone knows the story about King George VI (Colin Firth) who stuttered and took over the throne when King Edward VIII (Guy Pearce) abdicated to be with the vile Mrs. Simpson. The Queen Mum, although she isn't Queen Mum then (Bellatrix le Strange) goes to Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush), speech therapist to help him overcome his stutter and fulfill his destiny *said in a Darth Vader stylee*. The story is of their burgeoning relationship and friendship.
Even though we all know how it turns out, I was gripped by the story from start to finish. The audience clapped. An audience hasn't done that since I was in the States.
2 thumbs up!
