    In my opinion,and definitely the opinion of many others; this film didn't deserve to win Best Picture. It lacks in great excitement, and I frankly only watched it because the plane ride was long. However it is still an interesting film, and gives great insight to the crippling problem the future King George VI faced. I did really enjoy it; as the movie brims with the natural royal charm and manages to have great moments of friendship between the king and his physician. The performances are great especially, and the film manages to progress the characters and the story superbly You can really love this film, or you could not really care for it. Either way it's well worth a watch
