Superb drama of courage and humanity
– An inspiring story about one man's quest to overcome a
speech impediment to lead his nation.
“Because I have a right to be heard. I have a voice!” This is a quote from The King’s Speech, which was released in 2010 and was a major box office and critical success.

The King’s speech is a British historical drama based on a real story, which is inspiring and talks about responsibility, empathy, overcoming barriers, endurance and friendship. It is with the perfect balance of poignant, uplifting, and humor. The King George is stammering and like a wounded lion when he can’t speak properly in public. The King decides to choose a lucky man Logue as his therapist, where he and his wife both insist that Logue focuses only on physical exercises. Logue teaches his patient muscle relaxation and breath control techniques but continues to probe gently and persistently at the psychological routes of the stutter.

With Logue’s help, the King makes his first wartime radiobroadcast on British’s declaration of war of Germany in 1939.
Fortunately, I have a similar experience in my childhood. When I was a little girl in the school, I was a rabbit and always too timid to speak in the class. Then one year, a...
