The King's Speech

My hubby (who is a person who stutters) just tipped me off about this soon-to-be-released film starring the trifecta of acting awesomeness that is Colin Firth, Geoffrey Rush, and Helena Bonham Carter. It tells the story of King George VI, and his struggle to overcome his stutter during the lead-up to WWII. It looks fascinating, don't you think?

  2. I was in Toronto when it opened at the film festival and it was all anyone could talk about! I'm excited to see it (and really, could it get any better than Colin, Helena and Geoffrey??? Fantastic!)

  8. Colin Firth is my pretend boyfriend. I named all of my favorite household items after him.
    french press = Colin Firth
    hot-cold bag = Colin Firth
    favorite quilt = Colin Firth

    And my husband knows which Colin Firth I'm referring to each time I mention him... it...
