The Royal Family has let it be known that Queen Elizabeth was "moved" by the film The King's Speech, which chronicles her father's trials and tribulations at conquering a speech impediment as he prepared to rally the British people against the threat of Hitler. What has become known is that screenwriter David Seidel intended to bring the movie to the screen many years ago, but was asked by the Queen Mother not to do so until her death, as she felt it would have been too emotional for her to have those memories brought to the fore. Seidel bowed to her wishes. The film is now winning many major awards and is the favorite for the Best Picture Oscar. It may sound like faint praise that the Queen is simply said to have been "moved" by the movie, but this is what constitutes a rave among royal watchers. The Royal Family is very careful about public comments that could be misconstrued as blatant commercial endorsements. For more click here
