具体描述
The "quack" who saved a king... Featuring a star-studded cast of Academy Award® winners and nominees, The King's Speech won the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival People's Choice Award and is generating plenty of Oscar buzz. This official film tie-in is written by London Sunday Times journalist Peter Conradi and Mark Logue--grandson of Lionel Logue, one of the movie's central characters. It's the eve of World War II, and King Edward VIII has abdicated the throne of England to marry the woman he loves. Never has the nation needed a leader more. But the new monarch, George VI--father of today's Queen Elizabeth II--is painfully shy and cursed with a terrible stammer. How can he inspire confidence in his countrymen when he cannot even speak to them? Help arrives in speech therapist Logue, who not only is a commoner, but Australian to boot. Will he be able to give King George his voice? The King's Speech tells an inspiring tale of triumph over adversity and the unlikely friendship between a reluctant king and the charismatic subject who saved the throne.

2011年4月29日，尊贵的威廉王子与平民女子凯特的婚礼受到全球瞩目，这是英国30年来最隆重的喜事。看世界各地的追捧热度，可见英国王室的雄风犹在，对英王室族谱兴趣盎然的人又增多了。如今，最尊贵的王室成员莫过于老祖母伊丽莎白二世，英王乔治六世的长女。 2011年，反映英国...

评分记得上中学时，看过一部反映英国国王爱德华八世与辛普森夫人的爱情电影，这位风流成性“爱美人不爱江山”的国王留在我最初的记忆中，对于他的胞弟，继位者乔治六世我没有印象，直到看到《国王的演讲》才知道乔治六世具有语言障碍，是语言治疗师罗格帮他摆脱了困扰多年的...
评分2011年上半年最具轰动效应的新闻当属英国威廉王子的大婚，这场定于4月29日在伦敦威斯敏斯特大教堂举行的世纪婚礼无限风光，获邀宾客以及观礼人群约百万之众，3400万镑的婚礼开销更是让人咋舌。两者以看似悬殊的身份上演了又一出王子与灰姑娘的浪漫故事，曾几何时，老王子查尔斯...

用户评价
文笔太普通，一堆赘语。人物显然更实际，应征了我对电影的一贯看法，添油加醋，炮制再炮制，虽然同名电影是2010年我最喜欢的。
评分the more pageantry, the better
评分Truly moved by the friendship between King George VI and Logue that transcends class, time, and hardships. What a lovely, humble, and graceful man that the King was and how fortunate that he was to have Logue as a friend and mentor in life.
评分可能是电影先入为主了，书反而没看出筋脉，拘谨，还有些浮肿。
评分Amusing
