The Kings Speech

Within the first 15 minutes of the film, they are cutting acetate on a Slivertone. There are tons of great mic's and radio equipment being used in the film.

The film is about King George VI (Duke of York), and how he "stammers" (Studders) when speaking. After trying the approaches of great doctors in the empire, be-friends an Australian who's unorthodox methods trigger a favorable result.

Won 4 Academy Awards, including Best Director.

I highly recommend it, its a great historical piece.
