Americans have long had a fascination with British royalty, and with films about British royalty. Thus there are high expectations for a film about King George VI (Albert Frederick Arthur George), father of Queen Elizabeth II. Add to that a phenomenal cast led by Colin Firth -- who many Americans consider to be British film royalty -- and the anticipation for The King's Speech is even greater. So it was a joy to watch this film and discover that it delivers on every level!
Sandra Bullock gives a rich and layered Golden Globe and Oscar-winning performance in John Lee Hancock's The Blind Side, based on the true story of Michael Oher, a homeless teen with a troubled past who was taken in by the Tuohy family and later went on to become a first round NFL draft pick.
