"The King's Speech" review

The movie The King’s Speech is a movie that tells the story of the King of England, who is slow in speech and stammers when he tries to speak. The movie then introduces the audience to this character Lionel Logue, who teaches the King how to use proper practical rhetoric. During the last part of the movie, England declared war with Germany. The movie shows the importance of rhetoric and also shows the non-fictional historical facts. Even though the King has the highest position in England, he feels rhetoric is very important and he needs to give an encouragement to his people so they stay calm and win the war against Germany. To a King, rhetoric becomes rather important. Frankly, as a King, he cannot be slow in speech and has to have great quality in his speech. If that does not happen, the King is considered as not a good king. He cannot even speak to one person properly. He also stammers a lot during his speeches. After his training with Lionel, he fluently speaks on air at the end of the movie. His point of his last speech is to encourage his people to stay calm and trust God to prevail against Germany. Kings of England are recorded to be good public speaker. If the King cannot speak fluently publicly, there is a huge problem. One of the requirements of a King is that he is able to speak fluently publicly. The King in this movie shows great need for rhetoric and therefore searches for the right person to teach him practical rhetoric. After his rehearsals, he successfully encouraged his people at the end of the movie to trust God to win the war against Germany.
