11) The King's Speech (2010)

Focusing on George VI's effort to overcome a speech impediment and the unexpected ascension to the British throne, The King's Speech can be placed among historically accurate period dramas. The plot centers on the relationship between the king, played by Colin Firth, and his unconventional speech therapist Lionel Logue ( Geoffrey Rush), and the efforts of the king to overcome his stammer to address the nation at a critical time in history. The production pays close attention to the period details, including costumes, settings, and historical events, providing an authentic glimpse into the challenges faced by the monarchy in the 1930s and 1940s.
