Lionel refuses to let Bertie smoke during their speech sessions, saying "sucking smoke into your lungs will kill you." King George VI, who smoked 20 to 25 cigarettes a day, died from complications of lung cancer surgery on February 6, 1952, at the age of 56.
Nine weeks before filming began, Lionel Logue's grandson, Mark Logue, discovered a large box in his attic that contained his grandfather's personal papers. The box held Lionel Logue's diary, his appointment book, notes from his speech therapy sessions with King George VI, and over 100 personal letters to Logue from the King. It also contained what is believed to be the actual copy of the speech used by George VI in his 1939 radio broadcast announcing the declaration of war with Germany. Mark Logue turned his grandfather's papers, letters, and diary over to director Tom Hooper and screenwriter David Seidler, who used them to flesh out the relationship between Logue and the King. Geoffrey Rush and Colin Firth also read through the material for insight into their characters. The exchange in this movie between Logue and King George VI following his radio speech ("You still stammered on the 'W'." / "Well, I had to throw in a few so they knew it was me.") was taken directly from Logue's diary. Firth insisted that it should be included in the movie.
Screenwriter David Seidler stammered as a child, and heard King George VI's wartime speech as a child. As an adult, he wrote Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother (widow of George VI) and asked for permission to use the King's story to create a movie. The Queen Mother asked him not to make it during her lifetime, saying the memories were too painful. Seidler respected her request.
The role of King George VI was written with Paul Bettany in mind. Bettany declined in order to spend more time with his family, and later admitted that he regretted his decision. Colin Firth was cast instead and received an Oscar for his performance.
At 73, David Seidler became the oldest person to win the Best Original Screenplay Academy Award (Oscar) for this movie.
"King George VI: All that... work... down the drain. My own... b... brother, I couldn't say a single w-word to him in reply. Lionel Logue: Why do you stammer so much more with David than you ever do with me? King George VI: 'Cos you're b... bloody well paid to listen. Lionel Logue: Bertie, I'm not a geisha girl. King George VI: Stop trying to be so bloody clever. Lionel Logue: What is it about David that stops you speaking? King George VI: What is it about you that bloody well makes you want to go on about it the whole bloody time? Lionel Logue: Vulgar, but fluent; you don't stammer when you swear. King George VI: Oh, bugger off! Lionel Logue: Is that the best you can do? King George VI: [like an elocution lesson] Well... bloody bugger to you, you beastly bastard. Lionel Logue: Oh, a public school prig could do better than that. King George VI: Shit. Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit! Lionel Logue: Yes! King George VI: Shit! Lionel Logue: Defecation flows trippingly from the tongue! King George VI: Because I'm angry! Lionel Logue: Do you know the f-word? King George VI: F... f... fornication? Lionel Logue: Oh, Bertie. King George VI: Fuck. Fuck! Fuck, fuck, fuck and fuck! Fuck, fuck and bugger! Bugger, bugger, buggerty buggerty buggerty, fuck, fuck, arse! Lionel Logue: Yes... King George VI: Balls, balls... Lionel Logue: ...you see, not a hesitation! King George VI: ...fuckity, shit, shit, fuck and willy. Willy, shit and fuck and... tits."
"King George VI: In this grave hour, perhaps the most fateful in our history, I send to every household of my peoples, both at home and overseas, this message, spoken with the same depth of feeling for each one of you, as if I were able to cross your threshold and speak to you myself: For the second time in the lives of most of us, we are at... at war. Over and over again we have tried to find a peaceful way out of the differences between ourselves and those who are now our enemies, but it has been in vain. We have been forced into a conflict, for we are called to meet the challenge of a principle, which, if it were to prevail, would be fatal to any civilized order in the world. Such a principle, stripped of all disguise, is surely the mere primitive doctrine that "might is right." For the sake of all that we ourselves hold dear, it is unthinkable that we should refuse to meet the challenge. It is to this high purpose that I now call my people at home, and my peoples across the seas, who will make our cause their own. I ask them to stand calm and firm and united in this time of trial. The task will be hard. There may be dark days ahead, and war can no longer be confined to the battlefield, but we can only do the right as we see the right, and reverently commit our cause to God. If one and all we keep resolutely faithful to it, then, with God's help, we shall prevail."
