King's Speech at Punchi Theatre

David Seidler's King's Speech directed by Tom Hooper will be screened at the Namel Malini Punchi Theatre, Borella. on September 25 at 6.30 p.m.

It's a brilliant movie with a huge number of awards including the Oscar for the best film. It is a powerful, hilarious and deeply moving story, told against the backdrop of a critical juncture in modern history, of the emergence of a deep friendship out of a professional relationship between two men who would otherwise never have socially interacted.

The screenplay is written by David Seidler (who also wrote Tucker: The Man and his Dream). The dry British wit is hilarious and the build-up to the climactic finale skillfully executed.

Colin Firth plays the role of King George VI and Geoffrey as Lionel Logue.
