(Talking about The King's Speech)
wintermute: Colin Firth talks about how the screenwriter was inspired to make the movie by his own stutter.
wintermute: And the Queen Mother (as she was when he started) asked him not to produce it until after she died.
wintermute: So, yeah, he had the idea when he was 7 or so, when these events actually happened, started writing it in his 20's or 30's, and then sat on it for 50 years, out of respect for the parties involved.
goldfishy: I wonder how different it would have been if it was made years and years ago
wintermute: Alec Guinness instead of Geoffrey Rush?
goldfishy: Hahahahaha! Can you imagine him telling the King to "Use the force George!"
Sentynel: These are not the speech therapists you're looking for.
