Summary. Analyse it and create one of your own. After the death of his father King George V and the scandalous abdication of King Edward VIII, Bertie who has suffered from a debilitating speech impediment all his life, is suddenly crowned King George VI of England. With his country on the brink of war and in desperate need of a leader, his wife, Elizabeth, the future Queen Mother, arranges for her husband to see an eccentric speech therapist, Lionel Logue. After a rough start, the two delve into an unorthodox course of treatment and eventually form an unbreakable bond. With the support of Logue, his family, his government and Winston Churchill, the King will overcome his stammer and deliver a radio-address that inspires his people and unites them in battle. Based on the true story of King George VI, THE KING'S SPEECH follows the Royal Monarch's quest to find his voice. Task 1. Match the following phrases with their definitions.
Task 2. Answer the questions. 1. What emotions does this film arouse? 2. What did you like best about the film? Why? 3. What, if anything, did you learn from the film? 4. Which character in the film did you like best? Why? 5. How would you have ended the film?
Task 3. Listen to the speech very carefully. Try to retell the speech using oratory techniques from the film and your textbooks.
“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 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, with our allies, to meet the challenge of a principle which, if it were to prevail, would be fatal to any civilized order in the world. It is a principle which permits a state, in the selfish pursuit of power, to disregard its treaties and its solemn pledges, which sanctions the use of force or threat of force against the sovereignty and independence of other states. Such a principle, stripped of all disguise, is surely the mere primitive doctrine that might is right, and if this principle were established through the world, the freedom of our own country and of the whole British Commonwealth of nations would be in danger. But far more than this, the peoples of the world would be kept in bondage of fear, and all hopes of settled peace and of the security, of justice and liberty, among nations, would be ended. This is the ultimate issue which confronts us. For the sake of all that we ourselves hold dear, and of the world order and peace, 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, ready for whatever service or sacrifice it may demand, then with God's help, we shall prevail. May He bless and keep us all.”
“the young victoria”
Release date: 2009 Director: Jean-Marc Vallé e Genre: Biography | Drama | History Summary.
The Young Victoria is a noteworthy title because the British queen it refers to lived to be 81 and reigned for 63 years. She was young once, of course, like everyone, but she’s more famous for being old. Moreover, the “Victorian Era” (i.e., most of the 1800s) is characterized by prim moral values and reserved behavior — hardly what you’d call youthful behavior. Victoria herself was appropriately chaste before her marriage, at least if The Young Victoria is to believed, but she was by no means dull. As played by Emily Blunt in this sumptuous, gorgeous-looking costume drama, young Vicky is a determined, stubborn princess who refuses to be coddled. She becomes heir to the throne at age 12, with only her dotty uncle King William IV between her and the monarchy, leading Parliament to institute a regency: if King William should die before Victoria turns 18, her mother, the Duchess of Kent, will be acting monarch until Victoria is old enough to wear the crown herself. Victoria finds the whole idea offensive, particularly since she knows her mother, as regent, would do whatever she was told by her power-hungry “adviser, ” the wormy Sir John Conroy. Victoria will have none of this! Plenty of palace intrigue ensues, with the customary squabbles over which of Victoria’s potential husbands would be most suitable from a strategic standpoint. Victoria bucks against the restrictions placed upon her — a palace can be a prison, yada yada — but thrives once she takes the throne and begins to exercise some real power. Written by the reliably upscale Julian Fellowes, the film often feels like a straightforward historical drama about the early years of Victoria’s early reign — a biopic, in other words — but eventually zeroes in on one story in particular: Victoria’s romantic life. England’s prime minister, Lord Melbourne, becomes a trusted friend and adviser, and the wags of London take to calling the queen “Mrs. Melbourne.” But her heart is with Prince Albert, a young German who is her first cousin and eventually the love of her life. There are strategic reasons for Victoria and Albert to be married, though they don’t amount to much (and in truth, it’s hard for a non-Anglophile to keep track of who’s king of what and how they relate to one another). The more important thing is that they’re actually in love. This is where the film is more comfortable, away from the political machinations and focused instead on a sweet, old-fashioned romance. Canadian director Jean-Marc Vallee makes excellent use of the stunning sets and costumes at his disposal; between that and the love story, this is bound to cause much swooning within the Pride and Prejudice demographic.
Task 1. Explain the following words. Who are these people and what are their main functions? 1. Regent 2. Spy 3. Descendants 4. Prime Minister 5. Monarch 6. Sovereign 7. Chancellor of the Exchequer
Task 2. Additional tasks: Make a report about great king and queens of GB with a presentation. Include the following information (how many dynasties were in the history of GB, what is the ruling one, who were prime ministers if there were, etc.) Task 4. Additional tasks 1. Write down the Queen’s speech. Try to be as accurate as it’s possible. 2. Create a family tree of the Royal family. 3. Make a presentation about premiership in Britain. Tell about the system of premiership, the most famous PMs of Britain, etc.
“The Iron Lady”
Release date: 2011 Director: Phyllida Lloyd Genre: Biography | Drama | History Summary. The film begins circa 2008 with an elderly Lady Thatcher buying milk unrecognized by other customers and walking back from the shop alone. Over the course of three days we see her struggle with dementia and with the lack of power that comes with old age, while looking back on defining moments of her personal and professional life, on which she reminisces with her (now dead) husband, Denis Thatcher. She is shown as having difficulty distinguishing between the past and present. A theme throughout the film is the personal price which Thatcher has paid for power. Denis is portrayed as somewhat ambivalent about his wife's rise to power, her son Mark lives in South Africa and is shown as having little contact with his mother, and it is implied that Thatcher's relationship with her daughter Carol is at times strained. In flashback we are shown Thatcher's youth, working in the family grocery store in Grantham, listening to the political speeches of her father, whom she idolized - it is also hinted that she had a poor relationship with her mother, a housewife - and announcing that she has won a place at the University of Oxford. She remembers her struggle, as a young lower-middle class woman, to break into a snobbish male-dominated Tory party and find a seat in the House of Commons, along with businessman Denis Thatcher's marriage proposal to her. Her struggles to fit in as a " Lady Member" of the House, and as Education Secretary in Edward Heath's cabinet are also shown, as are her friendship with Airey Neave, her decision to stand for Leader of the Conservative Party, and her voice coaching and image change. Further flashbacks examine historical events during her time as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom including the rising unemployment related to her monetarist policies and the tight 1981 budget (over the misgivings of " wet" members of her Cabinet – Ian Gilmour, Francis Pym, Michael Heseltine and Jim Prior), the Brixton Riots of 1981, the miners' strike of 1984–5, and the bombing of the Grand Hotel during the 1984 Conservative Party Conference, when she and Denis were almost killed. We also see her decision to retake the Falkland Islands following the islands' invasion by Argentina in 1982, the sinking of the ARA General Belgrano and Britain's subsequent victory in the Falklands War, her friendship with Ronald Reagan and emergence as a world figure, and the economic boom of the late 1980s. By 1990 Thatcher is shown as an imperious but ageing figure, ranting aggressively at her Cabinet, refusing to accept that the Community Charge (the " Poll Tax" ) is regarded as unjust, and fiercely opposed to European Integration. Her deputy Geoffrey Howe resigns after being humiliated by her in a Cabinet meeting, Michael Heseltine challenges her for the party leadership and her loss of support from her Cabinet colleagues leaves her little choice but to resign as Prime Minister, about which she is shown as still angry and bitter twenty years later. Eventually, Margaret is shown packing up her late husband's belongings, and telling him it's time for him to go. Denis's ghost leaves her – in spite of her cries that she is not yet ready to lose him – fully dressed but without his shoes, and she is left alone washing up a teacup. Summary. Stephen Meyers is an idealist who's brilliant at communications, is second in command of Governor Mike Morris's presidential campaign, and is a true believer. In the middle of the Ohio primary, the campaign manager of Morris's opponent asks Meyers to meet; he offers him a job. At the same time, Morris's negotiations for the endorsement of the man in third place, a North Carolina Senator, hit a snag. A young campaign intern, Molly Stearns, gets Stephen's romantic attention. Republicans have a trick up their sleeve; Stephen may be too trusting, and Molly has a secret. What's most important, career, victory, or virtue? Task 3.

Desperate to get a job, she finally gets an interview with Jerry (Jeff Goldblum) - who is desperate to hire a producer for the struggling show " Daybreak". Becky accepts the job and it proves to be more difficult than even she might be able to handle. She has to fire the sexist co-host, then try to convince egotistical news reporter, Mike Pomeroy (Harrison Ford), to take the job, and then try and get him to actually do the job, properly. And she has to do this while falling for handsome Adam (Patrick Wilson), and trying to save the show from plummeting ratings. Will Becky be able to hold on to her dream job and her sanity?
1. What is the main difference between Russian and Western morning TV shows, if there is? 2. Why did Mike Pomeroy agree to start working with Becky? 3. How did she manage to persuade him to work well?

Summary. Biopic of J. Edgar Hoover told by Hoover as he recalls his career for a biography. Early in his career, Hoover fixated on Communists, anarchists and any other revolutionary taking action against the U.S. government. He slowly builds the agency's reputation, becoming the sole arbiter of who gets hired and fired. One of his hires is Clyde Tolson who is quickly promoted to Assistant Director and would be Hoover's confidant and companion for the rest of Hoover's life. Hoover's memories have him playing a greater role in the many high profile cases the FBI was involved in - the Lindbergh baby kidnapping, the arrest of bank robbers like John Dillinger - and also show him to be quite adept at manipulating the various politicians he's worked with over his career, thanks in large part to his secret files. 1.

Can you remember another words with the suffix – gate. William: Hello, I'm William Kremer and this is The English We Speak. Wang Fei: Hi there. I'm Wang Fei. William: So, Wang Fei, today is 3 May. Wang Fei: Yes. William: Do you know what 3 May is? Wang Fei: Hmm… a Tuesday? William: Yes, it's a Tuesday, but it's not just any Tuesday. Today is World Press Freedom Day. This is the day that the United Nations has chosen to highlight the importance of a free press around the world. Wang Fei: A free press. So, newspapers that are free to write anything they think the public need to know and TV news that can report anything? William: Yes they can report anything, including things that look bad for the government! Scandals. Wang Fei: A scandal, so something very bad that damages someone's reputation. William: Exactly. And one of the most famous scandals from American history is the Watergate scandal of the early 1970s. Wang Fei: Watergate… that was why President Nixon had to resign wasn't it? William: Exactly, yes, because he was shown to have lied to the American people and basically obstructed the course of justice. The whole thing started when five men were arrested for breaking into an office block called Watergate. This was where the Democratic Party had their headquarters. Later on, the men were linked to the campaign to re-elect President Nixon, who was in the Republican Party. Wang Fei: Well, this is very interesting but what has it got to do with The English We Speak, William? William: Well, because Watergate was such a massive scandal, the word -gate is now sometimes used as a suffix to suggest that something is a scandal. So, to give you an example from last year, when Gordon Brown was trying to get re-elected as British Prime Minister, he was overheard calling an old lady a " bigot" – a very strong word for somebody who is intolerant and close-minded. Anyway, this was a big scandal and it came to be known in the media as 'bigotgate'. Wang Fei: Bigotgate. That sounds almost a little bit funny. William: Yes, you're right. I think using -gate on the end of a word can make it seem a little humorous. This term -gate is used more in the USA, but another recent example from the UK is 'Climategate' – that was when some emails and other documents from a university in England led to people asking questions about the way that scientists researched climate change. Climategate. Wang Fei: So, can we use –gate in normal English conversation too? William: Yes, you can – if you want to make a joke. Listen to this: Man A: Have you seen Mark recently? Man B: Mark – he hasn't spoken to me since beergate! Man A: Beergate? What do you mean? Man B: We had a big argument because I said Mark never bought a round of beer in the pub! He got very upset and went home. Wang Fei: So in that example, the speaker coined the word beergate to describe an argument about paying for beer! William: Yeah, which is obviously very silly. But of course, this suffix -gate is used in very serious situations too. And it was thanks to members of the free press, including the Washington Post journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, that the public came to know about Watergate. Wang Fei: Yes. Check our website this week for more information about World Press Freedom Day. Goodbye. Summary. Viktor Navorski, a man from an Eastern European country arrives in New York.
