WWII in the Background: Very few films that take place during WWII can have Hitler play a supporting role to a speech impediment, AND have jokes about Hitler's strong speech play so well. The film is able to balance the severity of the situation with a very honest and realistic perspective. At times they tread on some possibly dangerous ground , but because they handle the topic with such grace, what could be considered rude or offensive is actually quite interesting, important and even at times humorous.
Colin Firth: Not only does he have a stutter, a lisp, an accent different from his, he also has to sound like the real King himself who has a very distinct voice. Not only does Firth give an incredibly compelling emotional performance, but the way he subtly physically transforms himself is beyond impressive. So far, Ryan Gosling might be able to give Firth a run for his money in Blue Valentine, but this is THE BEST performance I've seen this year. It's extremely complex and being a King he has very little room to express himself. A slight grimace or a tonal shift in his voice has to speak volumes and luckily, due to his grasp of the character, it does. He should have won the Oscar last year for A Single Man if he doesn't win it this year for this film, I'm going to have to write a strongly worded letter to Mr. Oscar.
Empathy for the King: It's hard to make people really side with a person they feel is so distant from them. This is one of the best representation of what a King really has to go through that has been put on the screen. It's on par with The Queen with Helen Mirren. You are able to find empathy for the man beneath the crown and somehow relate to the pressures that he has to face.
Supporting Cast: Geoffrey Rush and Helena m Carter both give stellar performances that help to add to the films chemistry. Rush's great timing and Carter's endearing demeanor both help to round who King George VI is and more importantly the people who helped make him the great king he was.
The Score: This was a really beautiful, subtle yet powerful score that once again added to the grace of the film without ever distracting from what was taking place.
