Most of us have more or less in our lives the opportunity to speak publicly, whether it's giving a speech, hosting a meeting, answering questions, and making small talk with friends.

So how painful it would be to one day imagine that you no longer have full speaking ability, or worse, you would have to take this flaw to countless public speaking events? The movie I want to introduce today is about the battle and nirvana of a stutterer - "The King's Speech".

<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > self-esteem and self-confidence to defeat doubt and cowardice</h1>

The story takes place in the British royal family before World War II, when king George V's second son, the Duke of York, suffered from stuttering, but his naturally honorable status as a prince forced him to attend major events and give speeches frequently. But looking at the dense sea of people, his tongue seemed to be tripped, and his face was red and his ears were red, leaving only a silence in the megaphone.

The long-term flaws have plunged him into the painful quagmire of self-doubt, and traditional treatment has tormented him to no avail. The Duke lost his temper and told his wife that he would never receive treatment again, but the wife was still determined to find a famous doctor for him. And it is his wife's persistence that has brought him a turning point in life.

<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > the courage of the stuttering prince – George VI</h1>

After his wife's initial meeting with Dr. Logue and reaching an agreement, the Duke reluctantly entered the treatment room. With a modicum of resistance, he resented Dr. Logue, who expected to be with him as an equal and who often offended his privacy during conversation.

Persuaded by Dr. Logue, he put on his headphones and listened to music and read the classic passage from Shakespeare's Hamlet— "To be or not to be, that's a question." (Life or death, that's a problem.) Meanwhile, Dr. Logue took the tape recorder and recorded the Duke's reading.

The Duke could not hear his own voice at all, though Dr. Logue jokingly said, "I think the prince's brain must know what his mouth is saying." He was still very uneasy. After forcibly holding on for a while, the Duke angrily took off his headphones, believing that he had been teased, and said that the treatment was of no benefit and that there was no need to continue.

The beginning of the film shows the Duke's irritability, sensitivity and deep self-doubt. The Duke was very disgusted by Dr. Logue's talk to him about behavior outside of treatment, and after roaring furiously a few times, he also persevered with restraint. The Duke's isolation of his voice seemed to have completely lost control of language, his voice never reached his heart, only in the sense of hearing, and he did not even believe that he had the possibility of overcoming stuttering.

< h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > dreams of becoming a comedian's language corrector, Dr. Logue</h1>

Dr. Logue is not native Tony British, he is from Australia. He wasn't a professional doctor either, didn't have any credentials, but magically helped many people like the Duke of York with his controversial and innovative therapies. His biggest dream is actually to become a theatrical actor. However, his interviews failed, and the company's interviewers teased his Australian accent, believing that he would only be welcomed in the township.

Dr. Logue seems to be good-natured, but in his bones he is a very maverick, and even though he knows the true identity of the prince and his wife, he still insists that the Duke be treated in his clinic. His most common words are, "My castle, my rules." (I'm in charge of my turf)

He did not adhere to a strict hierarchy, and over and over again gently corrected the duke's address to him: "Don't call me sir, call me Lionel", and he also called the duke by the duke's nickname "Bodi".

It was this seemingly small act that brought the two closer together, shattering the Duke's ice and barrier to the strange world. Dr. Logue's patience and tolerance allowed him to remain calm and rational in the face of the angry Duke.

The process of treatment is a major feature in the film, and Dr. Logue's conversation with the Duke of York is even more important. Although the practice of physical pronunciation is indispensable, in the final analysis, the so-called treatment still has to start from the psychological level. Logue's best and greatest thing is that he uses the most sincere posture and perseverance to change the Duke from the depths of his heart, so that the Duke's voice is from the heart, so that he believes in himself and has self-esteem and self-confidence.

At the first meeting, under the unremitting questioning of Dr. Logue, although the Duke was annoyed many times, Dr. Logue still made him face one thing: his stuttering was not innate. Although the Duke angrily ended his treatment, before leaving, Dr. Logue gave him a disc recording his recitation. That night, he hesitated to play the recording, which had just been reprimanded by his father, and to the amazement of him and his wife, the boy in the recording recited it clearly and fluently, and did not seem to come from his mouth at all.

So of course, the couple came to Dr. Rogge's clinic again and said that they would fully cooperate with the treatment. Since then, the hard training has exhausted the Duke, but his speech has also taken a qualitative leap. Each time the speech paused, the Duke recalled the techniques dr. Logue had taught him, so that the speech could proceed smoothly.

As the second son, the Duke of York's throne was originally irrelevant to him, but it was these two factors mentioned next that had a crucial impact on his path to kingship.

< h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > stern father, George V</h1>

George V has always had a concern, that is, the crown prince only has wind and snow in his heart, and is a typical person who loves the country and the mountains and loves beauty. He always had the feeling that one day his second son would take on the responsibilities and mission of his brother and ascend to the throne of the king. To this end, he strictly trained his second son's speech ability, but the more impatient he was, the more unable his son could speak.

In 1936, George V died and was succeeded by Edward VIII. The Duke, who had lost his father, approached Dr. Logue to confide in him, and george V, on his deathbed, said that the Duke of York was braver than all his other sons combined, and that he regretted that he was not with his father at that time.

George V has been very strict with the Duke since childhood, and he will be left-handed and he will be forced to pull back. But the father was not careful enough, and the duke of the child was often abused by the nursing mother, and his hard childhood made him suffer from stuttering. This open conversation allowed the Duke and Dr. Logue to truly establish a sincere friendship.

<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > brother who loves beauty more, Edward VIII</h1>

Edward VIII's girlfriend was a woman who had been married twice and was still married. She maintained ambiguous relationships with several men and fascinated Edward VIII. Cabinet members stated that the King, as the leader of the British nation, could never violate doctrine by marrying a divorced woman.

Moreover, Edward VIII lacked a sense of responsibility, did not pay attention to the threat of fascism, and even had good relations with Hitler. At a banquet hosted by Edward VIII, his girlfriend received the dukes and couples as masters, which was not in keeping with etiquette.

The Duke of York could not bear to persuade Edward VIII to take on the responsibility of the king, but edward VIII's abdication of the throne only increased, and in the face of the signs of war, he was bent on love, and even in turn ridiculed the Duke of York's stuttering.

The Duke went to Dr. Logue, but he could not speak to his biological brother, which frustrated him. Dr. Logue tries to find out why, but ignites the Duke of York's temper. Dr. Logue was fluent in teasing the Duke for swearing, and the Duke began to vent his anger by a barrage of profanity.

Because they are afraid of affecting the children by swearing, the two go out to relax. Returning to the current king, the Duke's position is to do his part to keep his brother on the throne with the best effort, while Logue believes that the Duke is controlled by fear, and perhaps the king is his real position.

The Duke angrily stopped Logue's words, mocking Logue as the son of a winemaker, an upstart from rural Australia, incomparable to him. These hurtful words undoubtedly pulled the distance between the two of them.

At the end of 1936, Edward VIII abandoned the national righteousness and resolutely chose to abdicate at the most critical moment before World War II. The Duke of York officially ascended the throne as George VI, who is also the father of the present-day Empress Elizabeth.

<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > crowned king and inspired the people to resist aggression</h1>

At the council of the throne, in the face of a group of ministers and cabinet members, the king stuttered again. The bottom-up camera here shows a sense of oppression in a full and ingenious way, and the psychological pressure on the king is vividly displayed in the wordless.

As a king, there were more official duties to handle, and the daughters also behaved in a disciplined manner and stopped playing with him, and the pressure that came in an instant made the king can't help but cry bitterly at his wife in the middle of the night.

The couple find Dr. Logue again, and after an awkward apology, the two reconcile. The king thought that he was not the king's material, and in many places he was inferior to his brother.

Logue once again overturned his questioning of himself, saying, "You don't have to live in the shadow of your father or brother, you don't have to be afraid of what you were afraid of when you were five." "

At the coronation rehearsal, the king passively believed that his stuttering might never be cured, and would only leave the title of "stuttering king" in history like George III.

Logue sat on the king's throne, and no matter how angry the king was, he seemed to show a state of indifference. The two argued for half a day, and finally the king was enraged; the king understood Logue's intentions, and said, "Yes, you do." I think it will always be imprinted in the king's heart.

With Logue's help, the king successfully completed the coronation. And the clouds of fascism hung over all of Europe. In 1939, Germany declared war on Britain, and Germany and Britain officially entered a state of war. George VI, as king, urgently needed an inspiring speech in response to Nazi aggression.

He invited Logue, and the two of them worked intensively to prepare the speech, carefully marking each pause. Before the speech began, Churchill reassured the king that he had stuttered before, but he made this his own. George VI smiled and entered the broadcast room with Logue.

The king expressed his gratitude to Logue before the speech began, and the friendship between the two would continue regardless of success or failure. When the time came, everyone stopped all their activities and waited quietly for the king's first words.

Logue guided him throughout the whole process, and as expected, the king completed the speech slowly but smoothly, because he had believed in himself, and his voice came from his sincere heart.

Logue said that his "w" was not very good, but the king confidently said, "Stutter a little, and they will hear that it is me." George VI is not perfect, after all, "The King's Speech" is only about how a child with inferiority can get out of the haze of his life, and finally be ordered to help the building fall and turn the tide of the tide.

< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > concluding remarks</h1>

Many people seem to have lost the ability to believe in themselves, because it was honed in painful beatings, and even the noble king repeatedly searched for it in the difficult process of "building-breaking". This movie is based on real events in history, and perhaps you will gain something after watching this film, traveling to the eve of World War II and gaining the courage to play that game.
