Good things often create differences of opinion. I normally warm to anything that speaks of historically real characters ( keeps the wannabes who workshop them a bit under control) A film is either worth seeing or NOT .
This must be
The most frustrating thing is when movies just come out to decide BETWEEN what's hype , what's normal cynicism ( some arts people can't hack celebration of the good) The Nyork reviewer talks about a load of sugar and I think i wish we had newspapers that were worth buying - The NY reviewer can't even split it out- makes him seem like the dill .
Cynics are everywhere - who needs em ,. Some people don't like all the swearing in this film but if its real what more powerful storytelling can one have than to be exposed to a real but unusaul family who had a lot of influence .
Finally found someone who makes me see its at least worth watching
" Though they( lead characters ) eventually form a friendship, the relationship is more interesting than that: it's also the relationship between a therapist and a patient, a royal and a commoner, a closed man and a flamboyant one. Handled by such superb actors, stuttering and a strange friendship provide more than enough fascinating material for a wonderful movie.

The Young Victoria .
Before you go and see "The King's Speech "have a look at "The Young Victoria". This amazing true romance and free frolic with the birds takes us on a journey with a great question --What would you do if you were given the job of being the most powerful person in the world? Put aside your ambitions and share the wonderful ride of those who took on its terrors and sat on its pride !
