The King's Speech

Last night, we went to see a film I've been saving for the break--The King's Speech. It is one of those British productions one so cherishes, with an array of fine actors and a beautifully written script, modest and yet highly burnished, as the British do it so well.
This was a terrific film, the best I've seen all year. It gave me a lot to think about, concerning things I knew little of, such as the royal family of England and the difficulties of being part of such a system.
I heartily recommend it, while it is still around.

I've wondered if that one might come to the boondocks...

If not, you will be able to get it on cable or Netflix down the line.

Robbi, once I take down my Christmas decorations, I hang it.
