The King's Speech
Reviewed by John M. Williams
I was very slow to see the movie The King’s Speech. I had wanted to see it for many months after I read my first review in late 2010. I am overjoyed with having seen it. It is a movie I will watch many times. I enjoyed it that much.
As I watched the movie, I drew many parallels between the sometimes despicable ways speech therapists and others treated the future King and me.
The King’s Speech is the story of British King George VI (formerly Prince Albert Frederick Arthur George, Duke of York) and his personal struggle to control his stuttering or as the king calls it “stammering.” For Albert dealing with stammering is a constant struggle internally, physically, psychologically and socially. For some stutterers, stuttering can impact their sexuality.

George VI: a brief biography
Born: 14 December 1895
Died: 6 February 1952

Children: Princess Elizabeth (afterward Queen Elizabeth II) and Princess Margaret (later countess of Snowdon)
As shown in The King’s Speech, however, salvation came not only through the skilful and therapeutic treatment he received from Lionel Logue but was also due to the loving common sense of his wife, the former Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon.
Humble wooing
Interestingly, Lady Elizabeth, vivacious and attractive, took some persuading to marry Prince Albert in the first place. As Lady Airlie, who knew her well, wrote: “She was frankly doubtful, uncertain of her feelings, and afraid of the public life which would lie ahead of her.” But her suitor humbly persisted, and the wedding that resulted in 1923 provided Prince Albert with a deeply supportive wife who was at once at ease with an adoring public. She was also to bear him two greatly loved daughters, Elizabeth and Margaret Rose.
However, the trauma of the abdication of his brother, Edward VIII, in 1936, shattered the comfortable, almost low-key life that Prince Albert now enjoyed. There were some within the establishment who feared the new king might not be up to the job
