Desperate<br />

Measures<br />

To master King George VI’s stutter in The King’s Speech,<br />

Colin Firth went way beyond the call of duty. Will the<br />

Golden Globe–winning actor be stuck with a stammer?<br />

“In this grave hour, and perhaps the most<br />

fateful in our history...”<br />

SO BEGINS King George VI’s legendary<br />

speech to the people of Great Britain—<br />

the one that led the beleaguered<br />

country into World War II against<br />

Adolf Hitler, one of the most effective<br />

(albeit insane) public speakers<br />

of all time. Those who heard the<br />

King’s speech in 1939 were inspired,<br />

emboldened and given new faith<br />

in their leader. Likely, many in the<br />

kingdom never knew the lengths to<br />

which the king went to deliver it.<br />

This is the story that actor Colin<br />

Firth was called upon to replicate in<br />

The King’s Speech, in which English<br />

royal George VI struggles to give<br />

a voice to his nation in spite of a<br />

debilitating speech impediment.<br />

Firth manages the task so well that<br />

it’s easy to imagine the actor has<br />

been dealing with a lifelong stutter<br />

himself. That isn’t the case, of course,<br />

and Firth’s performance is another<br />

reminder of the handsome 50-yearold’s<br />

immense talent—the sort that<br />

rightly earned the man a Golden<br />

Globe for the performance. But Firth’s<br />

dead-on portrayal of the man who<br />

reigned over the British empire from<br />

1936 to 1952 goes far beyond mere<br />

craft. It owes much to the intensive<br />

preparation he put in for the role,<br />

which bordered on obsession.<br />

Firth’s quest to perfect the then-


06<br />

prince’s stammer began with a close<br />

examination of old radio speeches and<br />

newsreel footage. But as he delved<br />

into the archives, Firth discovered<br />

that there was more to master than<br />

George’s signature stammer. He had<br />

to learn the prince’s antiquated style<br />

of diction. “It was more clipped,” Firth<br />

told NPR. “No one really talks that<br />

way anymore.”<br />

The production team hired a dialect<br />

coach to solve that issue, but the script<br />

also called for Prince George to become<br />

progressively more confi dent as he<br />

engages in sessions with quirky speech<br />

therapist Lionel Logue (Geoff rey Rush).<br />

In order to eff ectively convey that<br />

growth, Firth would not only have to<br />

learn how to stammer eff ectively, but<br />

how to do so in a variety of ways. “I<br />

am doing double duty [in the movie],”<br />

explained Firth, in an interview with<br />

the British Stammering Association.<br />

“I have to learn to stammer and<br />

ALL WORK AND NO PLAY<br />

These actors risked life and limb (and in one<br />

case, ribs) for extreme roles.<br />

then I have to play someone trying<br />

desperately not to.”<br />

Luckily, Firth had a lot of<br />

motivation for the momentous task.<br />

As an Englishman, he knew that any<br />

portrayal of a fi gure as beloved as King<br />

George VI, father to Queen Elizabeth<br />

and grandfather to Charles, would<br />

be heavily scrutinized in his home<br />

country. So Firth hit the books to avoid<br />

coming across as being, as he has put<br />

it, “in any way bogus.”<br />

A bigger worry, though, was that<br />

he might off end anyone affl icted<br />

with a stutter if he didn’t perform<br />

realistically. To achieve that, Firth<br />

consulted multiple experts and spent<br />

weeks studying the psychology behind<br />

speech impediments. It helped that<br />

the movie’s writer, David Seidler, had<br />

battled a stammer for much of his life;<br />

discussions with Seidler and other<br />

stutterers led Firth to understand just<br />

how incapacitating those problems<br />

can be. “David described stammering<br />

“FIRTH WAS SO INVESTED IN HIS ROLE<br />

THAT HE EVEN STAMMERED WHILE<br />

ACCEPTING AN AWARD FOR HIS<br />

PERFORMANCE IN A SIMPLE MAN.”<br />

as something which really is allconsuming,<br />

that it’s not just an<br />

inconvenience that you can isolate,”<br />

he told NPR. “He said it became the<br />

be-all and end-all of everything.” To<br />

his credit, Firth was more than willing<br />

to jump down the proverbial rabbit<br />

hole to get it all right. “Addressing a<br />

real issue like this,” he has said, “I feel<br />

I owe it to myself and to anybody who<br />

struggles with it to be as authentic as<br />

I can.”<br />

Firth, of course, isn’t the fi rst actor<br />

who has gone to extremes for a role.<br />

Some actors’ parts call for reproducing<br />

a complicated accent of some kind (see<br />

Rob Morrow’s questionable Boston<br />

accent in Quiz Show), while riskier roles<br />

can involve the depiction of physical<br />

and mental ailments, à la wheelchairbound<br />

Tom Cruise in Born On the Fourth<br />

of July (which went well) or a mentally<br />

challenged Rosie O’Donnell in Riding<br />

the Bus with My Sister (which didn’t).<br />

Few actors have dedicated<br />

themselves to the cause in quite the<br />

all-encompassing way that Firth has in<br />

The King’s Speech. The list of successful<br />

stabs at extreme authenticity remains<br />

so short because truly transformative<br />

performances require an almost<br />

pathological level of perfectionism—<br />

and quite often, bodily injury. Given<br />

their rarity, fi lms that feature such<br />

immersive turns often become a thing<br />

of legend: Marlon Brando in The Men,<br />

Charlize Theron in Monster, Dustin<br />

Hoffman in Rain Man.<br />

It’s no secret that Method actors take<br />

on the lifestyles of their characters in<br />

role, as a disgruntled paraplegic<br />

veteran in The Men. Jack Nicholson,<br />

Al Pacino, Heath Ledger and other<br />

acting luminaries have gone to similar<br />

lengths, although none quite as<br />

impressively as Daniel Day-Lewis,<br />

who insisted on staying in character<br />

during the entire shoot of My Left Foot<br />

to better understand the everyday<br />

miseries suffered by quadriplegic<br />

writer Christy Brown. He broke two<br />

ribs during the shoot.<br />

Perhaps not as extreme, but certainly<br />

harder on the body, are roles for which<br />

actors gain or lose enormous amounts<br />

of weight. To show formerly fi t boxer<br />

Jake LaMotta’s fall from grace in the<br />

closing scenes of Raging Bull, Robert De<br />

Niro gained 60 pounds during a fourmonth<br />

break in fi lming. To portray a<br />

drug-addled soldier in 1996’s Courage<br />

Under Fire, Matt Damon shed 40<br />

pounds in just over three months; as a<br />

result of stress infl icted on his adrenal<br />

glands by the weight loss, he had to take<br />

medication for years afterward. And of<br />

course there’s Christian Bale, who lost<br />

a whopping 63 pounds, and seemingly<br />

every ounce of muscle and fat on his<br />

body, during his borderline insane<br />

preparation for his role as a tortured<br />

insomniac in The Machinist. He had<br />

even been planning to drop a further<br />

20 pounds—and risk severe heart<br />

trauma—until doctors intervened.<br />

That Firth admits to having<br />

experienced a mild form of paralysis<br />

in his left arm, likely caused by<br />

the stress of trying to speak with a<br />

pitch-perfect accent and stutter, just<br />

secures his place in the pantheon of<br />

hyper-dedicated craftsmen. In fact,<br />

so invested was he in the role and<br />

so complete was his transformation<br />

that in the midst of production, Firth<br />

even stammered while accepting an<br />

award for his performance in A Simple<br />

Man. “[When I found out] he couldn’t<br />

speak,” The King’s Speech director Tom<br />

Hooper told The Los Angeles Times. “I<br />

said, ‘That’s fantastic news!’”<br />

By the end, Firth feared that the<br />

stutter he so diligently affected might<br />

stick with him forever—which wouldn’t<br />

be an easy problem for a world-class<br />

actor to have. But if his acceptance<br />

speech at this year’s Golden Globes is<br />

any indication, it appears that mom’s<br />

old warning to “stop doing that or<br />

it will get stuck that way” no longer<br />

applies. The actor’s voice contained<br />

no trace of the stammer. Instead of a<br />

lifelong stutter, Firth ended up with a<br />

big, golden statue.

is the longest-running show in the history of<br />

television. After 22 seasons (at press time,<br />

renewed for a 23rd) and 515 episodes, Homer<br />

Simpson is almost as recognizeable as the US<br />

president. Out of all those episodes, which<br />

was the most popular? According to statistics<br />

from the Internet Movie Database, the public<br />

rated “You Only Move Twice,” in which Homer<br />

relocates the family to Cypress Creek to work<br />

for a man who is bent on world domination,<br />

highest, with 9.3 stars. “Simpsons Roasting<br />

on an Open Fire,” the Christmas episode from<br />

1989, received the most votes, with 2,128.

His strength was also fueled by a hunger to avenge his brother’s murder<br />

which happened during the bank robbery that led to his own capture.<br />
