The King’s Speech

January21

Photo from iMDb siteIt’s cold and dark and gloomy these days. Another storm is on the way. Pretty soon, people will begin whining about the woes of February. More on that later. Want to lift that gloom? Want to hear your heart sing with goodness and joy? Want to see a feel-good movie that will make you laugh and cry? Then hurry on out to see The King’s Speech. You know the story–there’s no surprise there, but Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush bring the characters alive in such a tender-hearted way that you’ll want to stay for the next showing and relive the story all over again. It took me a while, but once you get over thinking of Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix Lestrange, you will enjoy her performance immensely, too. I’m rooting for this little movie all the way.

    We absolutely loved this movie. If Colin Firth doesn’t win best actor in a leading role, something is wrong. Amazing.

    It was a bit of a Harry Potter reunion though… Bellatrix Lestrange, Dumbledore, Wormtail… we were waiting for Harry to pop on the scene!
