About the film Translate into Russian. Explain the grammar in underlined sentenses:
Tells the story of the man who became King George VI, the father of Queen Elizabeth II. After his brother abdicates, George
('Bertie') reluctantly assumes the throne. Plagued by a dreaded stammer and considered unfit to be king, Bertie engages the
help of an unorthodox speech therapist named Lionel Logue. Through a set of unexpected techniques, and as a result of an
unlikely friendship, Bertie is able to find his voice and boldly lead the country through war.
Review Read it before watching. Answer whether you agree with it or not after watching:
This is a compelling personal drama with historical overtones. This movie is absolutely stunning. From the first scene until the
closing credits, you can almost feel what you are watching is special. Firth's acting is impeccable. It is almost painful when he 1
stammers and his performance makes you feel empathy for King George VI. Geoffrey Rush also gives an amazing performance as
Lionel Logue, the King's speech doctor. The film is amazing at chronicling the ups and downs of the King and Logue's relation-
ship, and when the King finally gives his decisive speech at the end of the movie, you too feel his victory. The events of the mov-
ie keep you interested and invested in the story throughout the film. "The King's Speech" is worthy of every piece of praise it
received. Finally the king had overcame his stammering to present an awesome speech to public. I am not a England, however,
after I'd seen the movie, especially the final scene, I had been touched as well.
Exercises and tasks Do these tasks after watching with a help of the «voca-book» you have the next page be-
low:
1. Write a review of yours. That will improve your way of thinking in English.
2. Read the words using transcription and their translation from each part before watching.
3. Try to paraphrase those you find difficult to remember.
4. Read and translate contextual sentences after watching so you could make sure you’ve got all the words properly.
5. Ask your partner questions around each part, using new words and phrases.
6. Remember who said each phrase or word, in the situations you’ve just watched.
7. Retell each situation. Especially those that are important for better understanding of the plot.
8. Put as many questions as you can to each part so that your partner could find the answers and discuss them with you.
9. Discussion: Please state your ideas about what royalty and impediment really are. Define these words.
10. Description: Describe king George VI/ queen Elizabeth/ Lionel Logue/ king George V/ king David, appearance, character,
habits, things he goes for
11. Describe king George VI as if you were queen Elizabeth/ Lionel/ his daughters Margaret and Elizabeth/ people of the UK
12. Describe Lionel Logue as if you were king George VI/ Archbishop/ his children
13. Would you like to have such a friend as Bertie/ Lionel? Why?
14. Would you like to be a king/queen? What are the reasons? What are the pros and cons of being a king/queen?
15. Split into groups: Your task is to have 2 columns on a sheet of paper and write some bad points about monarchy in one column
