　　回溯上个世纪三四十年代的英国历史，人们津津乐道的多是爱德华八世“不爱江山爱美人”的浪漫故事。为迎娶曾有婚史的辛普森夫人，爱德华八世不惜退位，仅执政325天。退位后，他成为温莎公爵，与辛普森夫人过起了闲云野鹤的生活。他的继任者，正是从小怯懦、口吃的弟弟艾伯特王子，也就是后来的乔治六世。
" q7 t1 o6 [3 C7 @' c/ ?; b　　电影《国王的演讲》取材于这段历史，故事主角就是乔治六世。由于拥有一个像爱德华王储这样优秀的哥哥，自小害羞、口吃的“伯蒂”（乔治六世的昵称）看起来并没有继承王位的可能。他和妻子伊丽莎白在远离公众的平静生活中逍遥度日，抚养两个女儿。随着老国王身体衰弱，日益增加的公共责任落到了伯蒂身上，也因此，他开始了与口吃的艰难抗争，并找到了“民间医生”莱纳尔·罗格，两人在治疗的过程中建立了终生友谊。
　　爱德华逊位后，伯蒂临危受命，成为乔治六世。两年后，二战爆发。在罗格医生的帮助下，乔治六世克服了口吃，通过广播发表了一篇鼓舞人心的圣诞节演讲，号召英国人反抗法西斯，成为二战中激励英国人斗志的重要因素。
