The King's Speech
It is a quite inspiring story about a man, psychologically scarred, and trapped in a situation from which he could have no escape and facing it with immense courage.The movie starts off with a stammering speech and signs off with a staggering one, with hardly any glitches in between.The basic premise of the movie is fairly simple.A king with a stutter is helped by a maverick speech therapist to overcome his problem and become an inspiring orator.That sounds like a very known territory to most movie goers.But few minutes into the movie, and you realize that this one simply pushes the bar a notch higher.The film conveyed very powerfully in the opening scene, the enormity of what was required of him.As the film develops, the complexities of the character are revealed.The acting is superb, especially from the three principals, and the development of the troubled and spark relationship at the heart of the film is a joy to watch.The film is very funny and the characters have warmth and humanity.The film is well paced, and carries you along to the emotional climax, so that, even though I knew the story, it had me holding my breath.If you don't need lots of action or special effects in your film, and enjoy seeing top-notch actors at the very peak of their craft, this will be for you.You might also, as I did, gain a bit more insight into the human drama behind a significant, but relatively unexplored period of British history.This is a biopic about how King George VI, the father of Queen Elizabeth II, overcame his stuttering problem.Widely considered by all but his father unfit to be king, George is reluctantly thrust unto the throne and into the spotlight after his brother is forced to abdicate.Overshadowed on the global stage by powerful orators like Adolph Hitler and Benito Mussolini, the King relies on the help of a little-known Australian speech therapist named Lionel Logue to find his voice and courageously lead his people into the most devastating war humanity has ever faced.This is a powerful, hilarious and deeply moving story, told against the backdrop of a critical juncture in modern history, of the emergence of a deep friendship out of a professional relationship between two men who would otherwise never have socially interacted.I was literally slapping my knee during some of the scenes.The buildup to the climactic finale is skillfully executed and prompted the audience to erupt into spontaneous applause.Geoffrey Rushdoes a fantastic job as Lionel Logue and Colin Firth is excellent as King George VI.It turns out that David Seidler also had a stuttering problem as a child and drew inspiration from the king's struggle.Early in his career he wanted to write a screenplay about it.He dutifully asked the Queen Mother for permission.She agreed but told him “not in my lifetime”.Little did he know she would live to be 101 and he would have to wait another 30 years.Another interesting tidbit we learned was that near the end of the shoot, the crew finally located one of Lionel Logue's grandsons, who just so happened to live about 10 minutes away from the director.They got access to Lionel's diaries and correspondence and managed to incorporate some of it into the script.This movie is an unqualified must see.

The film review of The King's Speech
Actually,before the class we watched the movie, I have seen the movie by myself because of its fame as the King's Speech has won the Oscar for the Best Picture at the 83rd Academy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles.As known to all, it is a very touching, and quite inspiring story about a man who became King George VI, the father of Queen Elizabeth II.I have never known that he, a king ,should suffer so much to fufil his responsibility,while his brother just abandoned his throne for his so-called true love,which in my eyes,is reallyridiculous and irresponsible.And it’s also his brother that pushed George VI to be stronger, Through a set of unexpected techniques, and as a result of the friendship, Bertie is able to find his voice and lead the country through the war.The film is well paced, and carries me along to the emotional climax, so that, even though I’m watching the movie a second time, it still hold my breath all through the movie,during which I feel the perseverance and patience Bertie owned once again.The most impressing part is that the King bear the
responsibility and finally suceed through his hardworking train,despite how tiring and sweating,with his lips trembling again and again.As the film develops, the complexities of the character are revealed.Bertie’s brother Edward VIII focus his attention on his marriage,giving no care to the management of his country,though his father George v wished him to be a good king before his death.He didn’t know he was giving up his country.He just misunderstood the significance of his life.You see, the prince and Mrs
Simpson talked on the phone, the younger brother George six on the floor said, “mother iswaiting for you for dinner”, he said: “she forgot that father's clock is faster for half an hour.” And then he went to put the clock back half a lap.How absurd he was!
The doctor,according to the movie and the true history,Leon was not a professional doctor, he just had some speech experience of the guidance, but helped George VI solve the problem of nine experts.According to
Buckingham Palace staff memories,George VI was like a studying-hard
primary school student,under Leon's train.George VI once said, at one o 'clock in the morning he was awakened by nightmare , the dream of his own standing in the UK parliament preparinga presentation, but no word he could speak out.As countries gradually evolved into the horrors of war, the state and the
people desperately needed a wise leader.Then Edward VIII gave the throne to his brother and George VI’s wife Elizabeth also would be the future queen mother, Through a series of training, the new king got big improvement, overcame his stuttering problem, Leon also won the people's respect and honored to be the king's friends.I really enjoy the king’s wife, Elizabeth,inspiring his husband though the king is always losing his temper.Bertie can not compare with his smart and handsome brother, he never tried to be a king, but history and fate chose him.As the film has shown, if not for Elizabeth's full support, George VI won't have later achievement, if it weren't for the queen’s unyielding insistment, even a language therapists he was unwilling to meet.After searching for the true story, I admire Elizabeth’s kind heart even more, George VI awarded the medal of “fine heart” immediately to his wife after his coming to the throne : “without her help and support for me , I can't afford to take on the burden.” He and his wife's portraits are printed on commemorative stamps , when queen avatar has never appear on the stamps, this shows George VI’s attention on his wife.In addition,it teaches me to find the root of the problem and suit the remedy to the case,just like the doctor who uses his particular and maybe a little werid ways to cure the stuttering of the king.Moreover, a real hero, is not one saying how wonderful he is but one with a sincere heart and working enthusiasm.And everybody has a weak side.However,we can be stronger and more capable through hard work.Besides, This film is very beautiful, all composition of a picture, all of the screen, are graceful and calm.The king's speech is completely played in a modern look to structure the history, combining serious history with relaxing plot..Such an insping movie gives me much benefit and help, I believe it deserve me seeing a third time.And I will learn more about this story,in order to fufil myself.
第五篇:國王的演講影評
國王的演講影評
《國王的演講》氣勢十足的橫掃今年各大頒獎禮。他是作為一部英國本土的皇室題材電影.摘下王冠,Bertie只是一個因為童年陰影致使失去自信,脾氣暴躁而且口吃的普通人。但是作為喬治五世的二兒子,意味著他必須面對兩個選擇。要么結巴著在全英國面前丟盡皇室的臉,要么解開心結放下所有心理包袱承擔起一個國王在國家危難時應該承擔的一切責任。
尚且忽略外界是用何種眼光看待皇室成員,盡管甚至有史料披露喬治六世與其妻子間存在惡劣關系,但至少在電影中,能塑造出一個事實上存在或不存在人物,使他成為觀眾心中的精神英雄,給觀眾以積極的心理暗示,這也是電影之所以能發展至今的原因之一。
每個人的成長中總得有也總會有那么一兩個人在鼓勵扶持著你,并非因為身份,而只是純粹因為信賴。對于Bertie,妻子和語言導師Lionel就是那兩個人。正如Lionel所說,“This fellow would be somebody great, he just afraid of his own shadow.”他的確有資格成為偉人,而不是龜縮在自己的精神世界中無法自拔。
盡管作為皇室題材電影,口吃會導致吐字時的發音氣流顯得格外清晰,鏡頭的特寫甚至能明顯看到Colin的唇部肌肉緊張且不規則的張弛,努力想要讀出的單詞因無法吐出而漲紅了臉,面對Lionel有意的咄咄逼人而作出暴跳如雷的反駁。喬治六世敏感脆弱又無奈的心理在他的演繹下被徹底展現在觀眾面前。再加上Geoffrey,Helena,Timothy, Jennifer等一眾戲骨,不可否認,是主演們的演技讓這部皇室題材電影顯得更具觀賞性。之所以會產生口吃,始終歸咎于Bertie的心理陰影和缺乏自信。在片中他有六次不同時間段的演講,而這些演講又與他當時的心理有密切聯系。因此將這六次演講與當時的心理活動結合起來,能更準確的揣摩出這位從有身體障礙的約克郡公爵成長為具有反戰象征的喬治六世的艱難過程。
溫布利球場里皇室博覽會的閉幕演講是作為約克郡公爵的Bertie第一次在公開場合亮相。在全場觀眾的注視下,麥克風將他的口吃無限放大,同時也往他作為一個有身體缺陷的人脆弱的心里再撒一把鹽。像一只受傷的刺猬,豎起身上的棘刺,將所有人拒于千里之外。鏡頭沒有對Bertie的心理狀態進行刻意的描寫,而是通過他的言行舉止反映出他當時內心既無助又抗拒的心態。
父親喬治五世圣誕演講后,特意讓Bertie練習剛發表的演講稿,這是他第二次面對演講稿。在父親的嚴厲斥責下,他不由自主的縮緊胳膊。再明顯不過的,又一次掙扎著吐不出字。不停地抽煙從另一個角度來
說,證明他只能通過煙來緩解內心的緊張感和不自信。當天晚上邊抽煙邊罵著“騙子,混蛋”表示Bertie此時的內心充滿憤恨。他恨自己的口吃,更恨別人給他的精神壓迫。所以這時候從錄音帶中聽到自己在Lionel的診室里那段流利的朗讀,對他與他的妻子,無疑意味著一個希望。在這刻,Bertie內心第一次出現希冀。在同意并接受Lionel的訓練期間,他和妻子兩人也在盡皇室成員應盡的義務去參觀工廠并發表即時演講。這次的演講雖然依然令人失望,但因為Lionel之前的教導,至少使他能吞吐著說完一句話。信任已經逐漸在他內心占去大部分,此時Bertie的性情在Lionel,妻子和兩個女兒的鼓勵下顯得越發沉穩。說到《國王的演講》這種能被奧斯卡垂青的電影,給人的感覺一定是不可挑剔、無懈可擊了的。事實上也如此。尤其是電影的最后,英王演講一段,不能不說既帶給人了感動,又是一個勵志的經典。而英王的那段演講辭,其實也不過是眾多精彩演講辭的其中一個,但是由于電影前一部分的鋪陳,此時的演講辭卻被賦予的極大地魅力。
勵志的故事套在誰身上都有可能會魅力無限,所以勵志的電影很多,但《國王的演講》卻能脫穎而出,究其原因主要有兩點:
一是電影制作的精良程度。無可厚非,《國王的演講》是勵志電影,《杜拉拉升職記》(徐靜蕾版)同樣也是,區別就在于一個是描寫皇室生活,一個是描寫職場生活,從大眾化得角度來說,后者更要“親民”一些,但作為一部國產電影,《杜拉拉升職記》為何難以得到國人的恭維?這就要看電影制作的精良程度了。顯而易見,《國王的演講》的制作是相當精良的,該片毫不吝嗇地大量運用蒙太奇手法,其中伸縮鏡頭很自然地帶動畫面的劃接,更是堪稱一絕;而《杜拉拉升職記》在炫麗的剪輯開場之后,一切都落入了電視電影的拍攝水準,有些地方甚至到了讓人覺得剪輯都是多余的地步。
二是《國王的演講》這部電影絕不單單是勵志那樣簡單。
喬治六世身為一個口吃的公爵,他自己也很有自知之明,繼承王位不是他的初衷,但老國王的死去,以及愛德華八世為其偉大的愛情觀而選擇退位時,王位就自然而然地落到了他的身上。且王位本來就是個有名無實的東西,之前老國王也提到這一點“我們只不過是在眾人面前演戲”,所以在上有首相壓制,下有議會干擾,旁有教會的追擊下,國王的功能只有一個,那就是作為公眾人物的他們,替議會和首相演講。但偏巧,這唯一的功能也正是喬治六世最大的難題。因此,他之所以要想盡一切辦法來消除自己口吃的毛病,并不是因為別人的譏諷,也不是家人朋友的激勵,而是來源于首相、議會、教會的“政治”壓迫,要知道
在一個君主立憲制的國家,想要干掉一個國王比殺雞宰牛困難不了多少。父親的去世以及哥哥的卸任,使他在二戰前夕匆忙地登上皇位。希特勒的腳步不斷逼近,整個國家籠罩在戰前的恐懼中。即將成為喬治六世的Bertie強烈的責任感在口吃這一障礙前顯得更加力不從心,與Lionel的爭執充分顯示他的極度不自信。就職委員會上的內部演講反映出他內心的壓迫感不斷加強。鏡頭在墻上壁畫中游移說明Bertie當時的緊張感與壓迫感的強烈。之后在妻子面前無助的抽泣,是因為他得面對的責任因他的口吃而轉變成他的心理壓力,假如無法治愈他的口吃,喬治六世這個頭銜對于他也就只意味著難以想象的心理負擔。這也不難理解為什么一直拖到現在,心高氣傲的他才向Lionel提出道歉。
緊接著的加冕大典Bertie需要宣誓完成,Lionel的故意刺激讓他意識到自己有能力相信自己說的話有人會在乎,而不會因為他的口吃而將他忽略。Lionel想通過激將法令他有說話的勇氣,拋下不自信的包袱??梢哉f自此,Bertie已經有足夠信心與成熟作為一個君王來面對接下來的一系列挑戰,包括二戰的打響。首相的辭職使國家的形勢變得更加嚴峻,群龍無首的政局在二戰到來之際顯得越發風雨飄搖。在國家危在旦夕的時刻,成為喬治六世的Bertie必須以一國之首的身份穩握大局,在人心惶惶的此刻給全英人民以警示,信心與支持,發出團結一致以捍衛正義的口號。即便依舊會妄自菲薄,但在這一刻,在他的內心,堅強和責任感已經戰勝了膽怯,國家的危難遠比他的個人顧慮更重要。他的國家和人民需要一個勇敢的國王,即便這個國王依然擁有曾經令他難以啟齒的身體障礙。在演講直播過程中,Lionel對他的肢體鼓勵與提示是有所變化的。由一開始的邊帶動其放松邊核對稿子,到后來完全放開手讓Bertie獨自朗誦,最后在演講結束后第一次稱呼他“國王先生”,證明Bertie已經徹底戰勝過去的自己,真正成長為Lionel之前說的“最勇敢的人”。
作為一個國王的成長故事,所有跌宕起伏的經歷終將在皇家外表的金碧輝煌中沉淀下來,成為一段鮮為人知的歷史。而對于外界的所有評價,無論褒貶與否都只是過眼云煙。所要在乎的,唯有自己有否曾經真正努力,去戰勝從前那個不成熟的自己。
