The King's Speech (King George VI)

The movie "The King's Speech" is about King George VI, who stutters while talking.
He gets helped by an Australian speech therapist, who helps him to become a good speaker, and becomes his friend. He eventually makes a great speech on a balcony, in front of a balcony, on the day that Britain Declared War on Germany.

Although I haven't seen the movie yet, I think that the story of a (new) King overcoming his
speech-related, stuttering problem was not only important for King George VI, to overcome, because of his high status, but it was also a great accomplishment in a professional-communication-way.

People who stutter a lot, or have other speech-related problems, can really relate to this movie. People may be motivated to try to fix their own speech-related problems.
