is not uncommon to find people (myself among them) that films about royalty you are almost completely indifferent. The basic problem for many, is to find a bond with the story, something that binds us to what we are seeing for a couple of hours, in essence, a "cause" to keep looking. But is difficult, when the life of kings is often so far from us, spectators and mere mortals at a time. Tom Hooper completely destroys the prejudice against "The King's Speech " which portrays the struggle of King George VI (Colin Firth) stuttering completely impossible that a target audience and their search for help the failed actor and speech therapist Lionel Logue almost (Geoffrey Rush). Real drama is turned into a daily drama, common, far from the palaces and protocol: the inability to communicate. Hooper
dares to take away the experiment to reshape the genre of "film of royalty" away from the usual format of historical drama (or rather, facing it from another location), allowing the viewer to empathize with George VI ("Bertie"), since, although not everyone can understand the conflict that leads to mistakes in the order of a teaspoons game is more than possible, almost certain, that there is someone on the planet has not faced a situation, time, person, against which the words do not come out, become confused, make mistakes ...
Royalty is then the chief excuse for plants to express our own difficulties, and Colin Firth (glossy paper) is the responsible approach to it. Accompanying him in the role of "master" the great Geoffrey Rush, that far from being a complement to Firth (why should we accept that this role is supporting actor?) Is finished and complete a character in itself, as protagonist as the monarch.
There is a quality almost theatrical staging of "The King's Speech " used by Hooper with expertise to locate Firth address two audiences: the people as king, and we, the viewers, as an actor. When converting somehow his performance in a nearly cinematic theater, proximity is more than inevitable, favoring the intention original author's propose the basic conflict of the film.
"The King's Speech " works on two levels so completely interdependent. As real and historical drama in much, but allowed only by the commitment of the director to approach the drama from our own reality. Faced with the real difficulties, the challenge to be overcome, there are no titles fifferences us. In that sense, royalty becomes a much more human, and overcoming, we become a little more real.
4.0/5.0
